The rationality meetup this week is an origami skillshare. We may or may not choose to work together on a piece of modular origami during the event. Additional meetup details here; generally around 8 people show up to each meetup.

Parameters:

  • "Complex" refers to the number of individual paper units used. A 70 unit polyhedron that is easy to assemble will be considered more complex than a 12 unit cube where you need to know non-euclidian geometry to get the units assembled together properly.

  • "Completed" means fully assembled according to instructions provided (to the best of our knowledge).

  • "Piece" should be one that can plausibly be traced to a book or instructions that you can find online via google. This disqualifies Brent's "Square Pancake Stack".

  • Resolves "0-10" if no modular origami piece ends up being made.

we successfully made a 12 unit module to warm up, but ran out of time on assembling our 60 unit chonker :'(

This is a fun idea, I'd love to copy this for one of our own Taco Tuesdays!

(Also: hi @jenn lovely to see you on our site! I really, really liked your blog post comparing EA to non-EA charities~)

Oh I love modular origami! Unlikely to attend this meetup but would've been fun

@firstuserhere please use your insider origami knowledge to place some bets, I'm flying blind here
