The Coolest Origami You'll See All Day

A recent issue of The New Yorker (2/19/07) had a fascinating article on physicist and American origami master Robert Lang. Now, I've made a couple of cranes in my time, and did a passable job on an origami frog once, but the kind of projects being executed by Lang and his technologically advanced contemporaries are a mind-blowing contrast. Just remember, all of these designs are made using a single, uncut piece of paper (some as large as six feet square).
