ADHD, Depression, Origami, & Happiness
Watch the talk
Origami fed my need to understand things, to solve problems, and to be creative all at the same time.
I don't think there's an art form that gets as close to creating something out of nothing as origami does.
Folding paper, aligning paper-does it really bring happiness? I think it does.
Creation out of nothing. I often say that origami is as close as you can get to that. It's a piece of paper. Beyond that, you don't need anything else.
I view creativity as the ability to take existing ideas, to merge them together in a new way.
Knowing what the problem is doesn't mean that you know how to solve the problem.
