The MIT Grad Gala

is a great way to relax and socialize with your fellow MIT graduate students.

But, wait a minute! That guy dancing with me doesn’t seem to fit either of those criteria! And what in the world is going on on that balcony?!?

The Sailboat Challenge

was a friendly challenge given to designers attending the 2006 Origami USA Convention in New York City. I’ve exhibited at the Origami USA Convention every time that I have attended, as well as participating in the Sailboat Challenge.

 

Here are some photos of it, including my sailboat (the one with little people in it) and those of other people attempting the challenge. The particularly epic sailboat with the kraken is by Brian Chan. All models are out of a single sheet.
