How to make an Origami CD Case by Armand Aromin

So, you're a musician with taste who intends to give a data disc packed with goodies to your friend who is experiencing a deficiency in decent music, or perhaps you're a high school student who wants to get brownie points because your power point project on that CD of yours reeks of smelly, OR maybe you're a dirt poor college student who can't afford real CD cases but conveniently happens to have an 8.5" x 11" piece of paper at hand and many copies of his/her last senior recital...! If you are any of these (and even if you aren't.. I don't judge) and want to impress your friend/teacher/crush, then you should stop reading this and pay attention to the video!

What's that? You tried to fold a paper crane once in middle school but failed horribly? Quit yer whining! This is super duper easy!

(And to those who are interested in the background music, it's a barndance and reel medley recorded during a concert at Boston College performed by myself and my good friend, Daniel Accardi. Incidentally, he is very hairy. The tunes are If There Were No Women In The World and Rolling In The Ryegrass. Enjoy!)

very good....music and the case

[Fidonese]

Okay. I just came on to thank you for this, as I felt guilty for not leaving a comment favouriting/thumbing you up because I've now used this technique for all my important installation CDs for my computer that were just hanging around.

So many thanks, and I've now learned your technique off-by-heart. I shall credit you if I ever teach it to someone else.

Nice case. Now, the mixed cd I'm giving her won't seem so cliche.
