Philosophy Introduction One aspect of origami that attracted me is that one's folding is developed from a personal philosophy.
Most folders have a personal set of self-imposed rules which they apply.
The rules are modified or changed over time by the individual, perhaps to consider new aspects or in the light of experience. These are the strictest rules that can be applied. My Current Philosophy I have never used cuts though I acknowledge models which have a single cut that significantly improves a model. A single cut that say saves a half hour of folding can be preferable to the alternative. On the other hand, if many cuts are allowed the result is more likely kirigami than origami.
