Located 18 km north & west of Fort Macleod, Alberta, Canada at a location where the foothills of the Rocky Mountains meet the Great Plains, one of the world's oldest, largest, and best preserved buffalo jumps can be found. Head-Smashed-In - a UNESCO World Heritage Site - has been used continuously by aboriginal peoples of the plains for nearly 6,000 years.
Head-Smashed-In Buffalo Jump is an archaeological site known around the world as a remarkable testimony of the life of the Plains People through the millennia. The Jump bears witness to a method of hunting practiced by native people of the North American plains for nearly 6,000 years.
Due to their excellent understanding of the regional topography and bison behaviour, native people hunted bison by stampeding them over a precipice. They then carved up the carcasses and dragged the pieces to be butchered and processed in the butchering camp set up on the flats beyond the cliffs.
In 1981, the United Nations Educational Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) designated Head-Smashed-In Buffalo Jump as a World Heritage Site placing it among other world heritage monuments such as the Egyptian pyramids, Stonehenge and the Galapagos Islands.

Feeling better ;-) Thanks for all your kind words.
I have one or two more impressive origami works from my friend Zihui for you this week.
Maybe you can ask me questions in comments?

what's this? oschene virtually stalking the halls of potsdam mathematics??
oschene's models are always nice but with these two I feel that the original crease pattern might even be a bit cooler than the actual model. might also not be so. it's a close run.
those models ended up in the geometry section of our institute. hope those people like them!
the title references the song folding circle by the wonderful river crombie. his is perfect autumn music, so check it out!

Gneiss is a high-grade, foliated metamorphic rock. It forms principally by metamorphism of schist, granite, or granite-like rocks. The foliation in gneiss is obvious and consists of alternating bands of light and dark minerals. The light-colored component is usually quartz (SiO2).
This museum specimen of gneiss has tightly folded foliation. Isoclinal folds, or "hairpin folds", have parallel flanks.

As a Physical Geography and Geology student, the coastline of the UK is stunning. This stretch along Sandymouth Bay is one of my favourite. The history of Earth and the formation of the UK is utterly gobsmacking. Look at this, to comprehend that rocks have been folded over millions of years is difficult but seeing it just amazes me. Wow!

I held a series of three sessions at KPF NY demonstrating severals ways to transform a flat single sheet of paper into a complex form. I demonstrated folds that used both standard origami techniques (square paper, no cutting) and more modern approaches (laser-cut and -scored curves). The square forms date back to the Bauhaus movement and I was inspired by the work I did for Erik and Marty Demaine when choosing the shapes of the curved forms. Special thanks also to Alex Soijka who helped with the video.
· Back in our startup-incubation days at Samsung NEXT, an intermodalist managed to get a folding bike past the security guards and up to the office.
It should fit in the overhead compartment in an airplane. Sweet! It is really easy to fold and unfold.

We restored this vintage folding model, and added a dropbars. The Sturmey Archer 3 speed internal rear hub was also reconditioned. Note 2nd interrupter brake levers,
· Folding bikes parked in front of Beer Revolution. The yellow one on the left is a Citizen. The red one at the front on the right is a Schwinn, with an intriguing reprise of the 1970s integrated rear rack. Their owners were in town for a boating event, and rode their folding bikes from the harbor.
(The Schwinn has a step-through frame; the red folder behind it is my Bike Friday Air Glide.)
Montague Paratrooper folding bikes are used extensively by Military personnel and medics to get to emergencies faster. When the bikes aren't in use, they can be folded up and put in the back of tanks and trucks for easy transport.
I appreciate all your comments, favs, notes and expos, long or short!
Thank you very much to all!
