Kirigami Models designed by Ramin Razani

In the last 3 days I've been experimenting with kirigami (the art of paper cutting) a bit. I don't really have practice with kirigami yet, so I'm quite proud of the results I managed to achieve.
The video shows three of my attempts, which represent my 3rd, 4th, and 5th kirigami model. No 1 is shown in http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f_wWuMmBSnw and no 2 is visible at http://www.happyfolding.com/gallery-razani-kirigami_firmament
All designs are by Ramin Razani. I'll be attending a workshop with Ramin Razani in May 2010, which I am very excited about. I for sure still have lots to learn!

Patterns for these models can be found in Ramin Razani's book "Faszinierende Grußkarten".

@theorigamikid13 I plan to make a kirigami tutorial sometime in the future. Let's say this year, not sure when exactly, though.

Hi,

gestern kam das Buch an und ich habe schon zu üben angefangen.

Das macht Spass.....ich brauche nur noch ein besseres Messer.

Mit was schneidest du denn die Berg und Talfalten vor???

viele Grüße aus Augsburg :-))

[AdamsSara]

@sumamme Ich verwende das gleiche Messer wie für die Durchschnitte: ein Skalpellmesser. Im Gegensatz zu Cuttern läuft die Klinge bis zur Spitze hin, so dass man präziser Endpunkte bestimmen kann. Zumindest fällt es mir mit dieser Klingenform einfacher.

[AdamsSara]

@Qazpunk2234 At the beginning of the video I give the title and the ISBN of the book that includes the patterns. It's German, though, so might not be widely available.

[pokemonkiller20]

you know, people never really give kirigami the credit it diserves.

[theorigamikid13]

@AdamsSara Ok thanks!
