ROBERT LANG - Physicist and origami artist, featured in our new exhibit SCIENCE & ART
From the time he was a child Robert Lang was passionate about rendering beautiful figures from nothing but a square of paper. His skill in folding origami and in mathematicsled him to become one of the pioneers of a branch of origami known as origami sekkei, or‘technical origami” in which computer algorithms aid in the creation of crease patterns for highly complex sculptures. In 2004 he became a full-time origamiartist, after nearly three decades as a physicist and engineer, during which he authored or co-authored over 80 technical publications and was awarded 40 patents involving semiconductor lasers, optics, and integrated optoelectronics. Robert Lang is recognized as a master in the rarified world of origami artists.
