title: Origami Odyssey: A Journey to the Edge of Paperfolding: Includes Origami Book with 21 Original Projects & Instructional DVD
author:  Peter Engel 
description: "Life and nature are the inspiration; origami is the passion. Peter Engel's book invites you to explore how a single sheet of paper can evoke wonder in your heart." <b>Kimber Simpkins, author, Certified Anusara Yoga Instructor</b><br /><br />"This magnificent work shows that origami is more than the sum of its folds. By weaving together art, history, music, Zen, his own life's journey and a collection of elegant, distinctive origami works, Engel reveals the spirit within this magical art. <i>Origami Odyssey</i> is a spectacular accomplishment, a work of art in itself, and a worthy successor to Engel's iconic <i>Folding the Universe</i>." <b>Robert J. Lang, author of <i>Origami Design Secrets</i></b><br /><br />"I love the different folds I can create in this book and the fun projects as well!" <b><i>TestTryResults</i> blog</b><br /><br />"This is an important, long-awaited book from one of the intellectual leaders in the field of origami art and science. <i>Origami Odyssey</i> is creative, has great models, and is food for the mind as well as the fingers. For an inspirational and thought-provoking journey into the essence of origami, look no further." <b>Tom Hull, Associate Professor of Mathematics, Western New England University, author of <i>Project Origami</i></b><br /><br />"Peter Engel has done it again! Engel's streamlined aesthetic resonates with the simplicity of Japanese ink painting, garden design, and haiku. In <i>Origami Odyssey</i> he expands the frontiers of origami design still further and shares his secrets through easy-to-follow explanations and diagrams. My family has delighted in making these magical representations of the cosmos and the natural world." <b>Melissa Rinne, Associate Curator of Japanese Art, Asian Art Museum</b><br /><br />"Peter Engel's origami designs sing for themselves: creations of elegance, whimsy, and surprise. <i>Origami Odyssey</i> is an extraordinary celebration of the shared territory where art, nature, geometry, and imagination come together and play." <b>Tom Rockwell, Director of Exhibits, The Exploratorium, San Francisco</b>
