This weeks New Yorker (Feb. 19/26) has a nice article about Robert Lang (written by Susan Orlean). If you're interested in origami you'll find it very interesting.

The New Yorker website still lists the previous issue (Feb 12) as the 'current issue'. My guess is they'll update it in a couple of days.

They mention my brother John in the article as well. When Robert and my brother met I believe for the first time in the mid-80's, the three of us went to dinner at a seafood restaurant and Robert showed us some amazing life-sized origami ants he'd folded with tweezers. One of the results of their meeting? The book Origami Sea Life. Robert is a folder I've always admired and it was nice to see the article.
