They say it takes 10,000 hours to become an expert at something, and Robby Kraft’s work clearly shows that he’s invested even more than that in practicing the Japanese art of origami.
Kraft is currently working as a coding teacher for artists and designers at Parsons and the School for Poetic Computation. His love for combining math and art began when he was young and he started folding origami when he was in elementary school.
Kraft is also into classical music. Here’s what he said about the similarities between classical music and origami:
“The crease pattern and diagrams are instructions on a mathematically flat 2D manifold, impossible in the real world, so to fold an origami is to capture it into the real world and add imperfections.”
