About Dirk
I was born in 1972. I'm a chemist, also highly interested in mathematics, especially in geometry.
I started folding 2001 with the work by David Mitchell out of his book "Mathematical Origami".
My work today can be divided into three main areas:
1) Wireframe polyhedra
I have refined the edge module by Tomoko Fuse and Francis Ow, so that now all kinds of polyhedra with intersections or/and concave edges, like compounds, stellations, B.M.Stewart toroids, etc. are possible to assemble.
2) Polygon Cross Module
Based on Francis Ow's snowflake module I developed a set of modules with which it's possible to assemble 2D modular quilts in all kinds of tilings.
3) Tessellation
I mainly fold tessellations with stacked twists. I'm also in the search of alternatives to normal twists.
Some of my work was exhibited. Mainly in group exhibitions by Origami Deutschland:
2017 Mathematikum, Gießen
2018 Phänomenta, Flensburg
2018 Mölln
