And the difference with the stuff that I do is I make kirigami-- like, architectural replicas. Normally kirigami is used to make things like the Eiffel Tower or Empire State Building, something like that. But I find my niche in making stuff from movies and more kind of pop culture related stuff.
But you won't get the massive drop off and therefore the failure of the initiative. So we have Tim Kirima says, "Some change initiatives fizzle out once the change movers out of the scene.
So thank you, and welcome. And so kirigami-- you've probably already done it before. It's basically cutting and folding paper.
to be a president of Russia. And Patriarch Kirill, who was the head of the Orthodox Church and very influential person in Russian society, started to approve this, saying that true Christians should not go to the demonstrations and so on.
have Mika boxes when you were kids? I think most Japanese people know what a Mika box is, but did you know about the Mika boxes made by Kiria that cost around 77 yen ? No. Oh, what's going on?
But at the same time, it's like, hey, man. I see you dunk on Kirilenko. And I was like, damn, that shit was like 20 years ago.
So we're learning something. If you dunk on Andre Kirilenko, game three of the West semifinals, it's going to haunt you for the rest of your life. Oh, it's gonna. Yeah, basically.
So they lived it. Better than the dunk on Kirilenko?
And I'm sure all of you have done or have made snowflakes at Christmas. So you're already masters at kirigami. And the difference with the stuff that I do is I make kirigami-- like, architectural replicas.
And I wanted to rediscover the joy of making stuff again. And I came across the art form of kirigami. And this was the very first one that I made.
Makes a great Christmas present. So I was set aside-- I started making some other kirigami models. This is the Addams Family mansion from "The Addams Family" movie.
And these are some other pictures. So I did do an exhibition of Star Wars kirigami, but I did that without them, because I wanted to kind of push ahead with it. And obviously, I didn't call it Star Wars kirigami.
And then there's the dunk. I don't know how often you talk about the dunk on Kirilenko. Everybody talk about it every day.
I know y'all loving having a good time. Don't play me. You know Kirilenko-- you don't play Kirilenko. He's going to block it.
So they lived it. Man, way better than the dunk on Kirilenko.
So you're already masters at kirigami. And the difference with the stuff that I do is I make kirigami-- like, architectural replicas. Normally kirigami is used to make things like the Eiffel Tower or Empire State Building, something like that.
So you are forgiven if you do that today. I completely understand. I started making kirigami about five years ago. I'm a digital designer, and I work on big platform builds at the moment.
And obviously, I didn't call it Star Wars kirigami. It was called Cut Scene, and kirigami inspired by that "Spaceball" movie, you know? I did it very carefully.
So I'm really glad that you're here, and I'm able to share that with you now. So I'll shut up now we can do the Star Destroyer kirigami. Thank you.
Obviously, I'm here to talk to you about my new book. The full title is "Journey to The Last Jedi, Star Wars Kirigami," which I'm still quite excited about. And I'm going to take you through quite a short presentation.
So I did do an exhibition of Star Wars kirigami, but I did that without them, because I wanted to kind of push ahead with it. And obviously, I didn't call it Star Wars kirigami. It was called Cut Scene, and kirigami inspired by that "Spaceball" movie, you know?
And if I'm sort of bungling it, just kind of nod and smile, and pretend I'm making sense. And so before we get started, obviously, with the workshop stuff, I'm just going to take you through what the fundamentals of kirigami are, and also, how I got into it.
And then, of course, as I said, this led to this book. So you know, for me, this kind of whole adventure of kirigami has been a bit more than just creating these books. It's about getting people to start making stuff again.
