NAO #2

October 1, 1999

The travel to Oriland is a unique opportunity to plunge into the world of paper imagination, where the Origami - magic of transformation of ordinary sheets of a paper in surprising creations reigns!

 


How Michelle searched for the Lost Diagrams

The interview with Michille Tait (11 years old, NewYork), which has become one of the first Best Scouts of Oriland.

How did you find the first lost diagram?
I clicked on one of the many of the different characters, in Oriland. Than I read what they had to say, he told me that he had something, I looked, and he would produce a lost diagram! It was so much fun and really mysterious, because you never knew where they would pop-up, in houses, bushes, and from people.

What helped you in your search?
I clicked on everything rapid fire, I then scrolled down in the message box and read if the people had anything for me, if the houses hid anything from me, or if it was hiding under a bush. I could tell if they had something if it said "Look".

What place to you was pleasant to you more?
I thought that all the places were cool, but I thought San-Elf beat all. I liked it so much because of the fairy flying around and it was the place where I found my first lost diagram!

How long have you been involved in origami?
I have been involved in origami since I was five, I invented my first model when I was five (the note-pocket heart). I'm 11 now, so I have been involved in origami for 6 years now. I enjoy teaching classes, taking classes, and watching classes in session.

Are you a member of any origami-society?
Yes, I am. I am involved in two origami societies. The OUSA (Origami USA), and the Hungarian one (Hungarigami).

Have you made the "jasmine" from the lost diagrams found by you?
Yes, I have. I thought it was a very nice model and it would be a nice flower to put on a wreath.

What do you want to wish the guests and inhabitants of Oriland?
I want to wish the guests of Oriland as good as a time that I had and good luck on finding those cool diagrams. I want to wish the inhabitants of Oriland a THANK YOU VERY MUCH! for helping me find those diagrams, it really meant a lot to me.

What is Oribana?

When Katrin and Yurii Shumakov have begun to create paper compositions, they would like to think up for them any special word. Then they have taken two words: an "Origami" and "Ikebana", have united them and as a result the very beautiful word "Oribana" has appeared.
