Origamy

this is again something which 'm very passionate abt...


for those who are wondering wat 'm talking abt...
i'll tell u wat this origamy is...

this is supposed to be ART ... from card board/paper

its origin is frm japan i guess... may be china.. i donno

anyways.. i like it!


it was dec 24th christmas eve, tat eve in planitarium there was a demo class of Origamy aking place...

frm our coll, many 10th std students took part...

i was in 9th ... by some way, i convinced my vice principal tat i also wud acompany them .... well, i did..

frm tat day, started a remarkable journey in to the world or car board..

i've thoroughly enjoyed the experiance...

learned many a lessons frm it....

made PROPER GEOMETRIC MODELS on demand for my school, PU College, and even Engineering College!

i've not taken pics of many of my models...

and also they are not with me...

many are with the respective institutions.. few with my friends(whom i gifted to... )
hope they take deserved care.... and rest of them either worn out or stepped upon or... many ways to loose it.. hehe

PS: Origamy is a BIG branch concerned with card board art...

'm only into a part where u develop POLYHEDRONS from card board..
this requires knowledge of geometry... angles, no.. of sides, metrics.. etc

i'll upload few pics and explain as to how it is done...

Begining Of Change...

When I was in 9th Std, In many ways Rennaisance of Myself took place...

I was doing many things, I experimented with stuff...

i many a times put myself in ackward positions.. not bothering how it would affect me...


i used to ask many a doubts in class... not tat it was NOT-NORMAL , but the FEELING of ENQUIRY was very EVIDENT !

i began doing some scientific experiments... i genuinely tried to DISCOVER something...

i used to play wit MAgnets, electricity, wires .. well wat ever i could get my hands to.. hehe


My father used to remind me that i was still a student, not JUST a SCIENTIST, and the scientist {and othr extra curicular works} should happen after i've done with studies for the day...
But most of the time, i was other way around...

My arguement was that in 9th std, the final score doesn matter much, it doesn matter if i scored 80 % or 85% it both would mean the same thing, this year let me concentrate on the other funky stuff..
and 10th ,i'll defenitely STUDY ,FULL TIME...

it was an arguement he din accept straight away, i guess he hesitantly made himself to agree.. otherwise he wouldn allow me to do wat ever i did do! for my APPA(father) is a tuf task master.. he makes sure he gets d best out of me... i'm having very high regards on him in more ways than 1 .

i went to Planitarium Classes every sunday, i din understand much of wat was done, but still few % did filter in2 my porous brain :P

though setu(my friend) knows the actual truth wat happend ,i'll stick my neck out and say tat i won "young inventer" prize.. many of us did... basically for innovation in science

i'd done some work on "contact force in magnetism" .. later on i found tat tat work was already been done by some guy way before itself :D

anyways.. nice attempt huh ?? :)

i hope my classmates remember about it, no regrets even if they doont... i fought my way thru to get a hands on experiance in a Field trip arranged by my school,

it was in GML - GEOLOGICAL AND METALURGICAL LAB ...

a pool of hand picked students were given a chance to actually go to GML in class hours and get to know hw the metalurgical tests work!!

we also did them ourselves,,,

we demonstrated it to our other classmates as well


I should Thank my School Authorities and foremost Dr Raghavendra, GML better known as Ananya Raghavendra to have humbly given us a chance to see and experiance the lab environment!!


its VERY RARE to get such chances...

then, i tot .. well worth a fight ,tat oppurtunity!! hehe

i also formulated few theorems on Triangles...

it were all correct but i guess, like before pre done...

I did many othr things when i was in 9th...

all in all..

it is one of the turning points of my life where i gt this hunger to learn outside wat is there in text book... hunger to rise above and succed... hunger tat would grow and grow...

and be wat it is.. now.. still growing never ceasing to stop...

i only hope, i can acomplish wat ever i've set out to...

stepping over ego..
