About me

My portrait

I’m Jorge C. Lucero, Ph.D. and Professor of Computer Science at the University of Brasília. (Brazil).

My journey with origami began during my engineering doctoral studies in Japan, where I was introduced to its world of geometric marvels and creative folds. Instantly captivated, I immersed myself in the art of paper folding and earned my instructor certificate from the Origami Association of Japan.

Over the years, I have explored the wonders of origami by designing intricate models, participating in major international origami conventions and conferences, and publishing academic papers on its mathematical and computational aspects. As an educator, I have taught short courses on origami mathematics at universities across Brazil.

What fascinates me most about origami is its unique fusion of art, mathematics, and design, transforming it into a powerful and sustainable technology. Through this blog, I eagerly share my passion for origami in all its forms and review the latest groundbreaking applications of folding technology.

A humble sheet of paper holds entire universes waiting to be revealed with just a single fold. Join me on this creative journey as we explore new horizons in origami, one fold at a time!
