Book Description
Creaselightning was my third collection of models. It followed from Origami Projects and More Origami projects. The premise of the book was to develop a book around folding techniques rather than what the model was. The project explores folding techniques and different styles of folding. Central to the book is the question "How do I fold?" rather than, "What am I folding?". For most of the projects the folding journey should be as interesting as the destination. I have tried to avoid complexity and kept all the models as simple and elegant as possible. My main consideration is producing models that are enjoyable to make.The next section starts to explore some of the themes in the book and gives a bit more background to the models themselves and why I have included them. Most of all, if you have got this far, I hope you enjoy the origami. It took several years to develop the models and ideas in Creaselightning. If you have any thoughts or comments, do let me know.In 2004 I embarked on working full time as an origami designer. This has given me many more opportunities to write and develop origami books. Although many of these were commissions and designed in conjunction with the respective publishers.

Book Description
Origami Projects is a collection of the early works of Mark Bolitho, with most of the featured models having been developed in the late 1970s to early 1980s. They came out of a time when there were very few origami books available and, despite its ancient origins, was the beginning of modern more complex origami. It was, at the time relatively easy to come up with new designs by doodling or experimenting with repeatable patterns.Many of the models have been made organically. The Dinosaur and Dragon are made using similar folding techniques, this is then further developed in the Scorpion and Crab. The methodology of opening the point and squashing seems obvious and yet I haven't seen it replicated. This base is further developed in the follow up booklet "More Origami Projects", which includes a squirrel and a more advanced scorpion.The collection also features some of my favourite designs, the flying goose is an action model. The hexahedron has a delightful mechanism and resolves and concludes neatly by tucking a tab into a pocket. Both of these models have an organic folding sequence that resolves to a point where no further folds can be made, the models appear to be complete. This is a principle I revisit in "Creaselightning" and my presentation at The Seventh International meeting of Origami in Science, Maths, and Education; (7OSME) in 2018.The Hexahedron, Puffa Fish, flying bird and four-legged box share a common feature as they are all 3D and are fully rendered, unlike the dragon, badger and Tyrannosaur. These models are 2D, effectively flat models, whereas the first examples have no open spaces.
