Hopefully I’ll be able to attend one day.Įvery year with each convention JOAS releases a special Tanteidan Convention book.
I’ve personally never been to one of these conventions but they look like a lot of fun. There are lectures about origami and different artists teach groups how to fold their models. The conventions feature displays of origami from some of the best and most talented artists and designers in the world. This year they held the 22nd Tanteidan Convention from Augto Augin Tokyo. The Japan Origami Academic Society is probably the largest paper folding organization in the world.Įvery year JOAS holds an Origami Tanteidan Convention in Japan. You can find the official website for JOAS here: Tanteidan is a Japanese word that means “detective group.” “The Origami Detectives” was the original name for the group that’s now known as the Japan Origami Academic Society (JOAS). This can all be a little bit confusing so in this post I’ll clarify everything for you. Usually these books and magazines will be the only place where you can get instructions for certain awesome looking models. Specifically you’ll see Origami Tanteidan Convention books and Origami Tanteidan magazines mentioned. When you start getting deeper into origami one phrase that you’ll see come up a lot is “Origami Tanteidan”.
