Fonctionnement - Unit/modular origamis - the example of the Sonobe
To create a 3D shape, slide the tips of the modules into the 'pockets' of other modules.
After a few tries, you will soon master modular origami !
Some examples of shapes created with the Sonobe module/unit.
Here is a video that helps to better understand how to make the basic module/unit and create shapes with 2, 3, 6, 12 and 30 modules.
HISTORY
Japanese ancestors
In the book Ranma Zushiki published in Japan in 1734, a print presents some origami, one of which is modular. There are also kusudamas, traditional origamis assembled with glue or sewn to create 3D shapes.
The 1960s-70s
Isao HONDA in his book 'World of Origami', published in 1965, presents the same model of the 18th century.
In the 1960s another Japanes, Mitsunobu SONOBE and an American Robert Neal, 're-descover' modular origami (without totally realising its full potential).
The 1970s are characterised by a great development of modular/unit origamis which gradually conquered the general public.
