Starting from just a sheet of paper, by folding, stacking, crumpling,
sometimes tearing, we will explore a variety of phenomena, from magic
tricks and geometry to elasticity and the traditional Japanese art of
origami. Much of the show consists of table-top demos, which you can try
later with friends and family.

So, take a sheet of paper . . .

Tadashi Tokieda is a professor of mathematics at Stanford University.
Previously he was the Director of Studies in Mathematics at Trinity Hall,
Cambridge. He is also very active in inventing, collecting, and studying
toys that uniquely reveal and explore real-world surprises of mathematics
and physics. Professor Tokieda started as a painter, and then became a
classical philologist, before switching to mathematics.
