_{There are a number of recent very powerful results in origami mathematics. A very general result states that any planar straight-line drawing may be cut out of one sheet of paper by a single straight cut, after appropriate folding.}

Another result is that any polyhedron may be wrapped with a sufficiently large square sheet of paper. This implies that any connected, planar, polygonal region may be covered by a flat origami folded from a single square of paper. Moreover, any 2-coloring of the faces may be realized with paper whose two sides are those colors.

During this conference we will be exploring the mathematical theory behind the Japanese art of origami folding. Guest speakers from the world of mathematical origami theory will be unfolding new theories.During the afternoons workshops will provide delegates a chance to discuss some of the most cutting edge research in this field.

_{Guest speakers in the mornings will be followed by a choice of workshop on both afternoons. These are included in the price.}

_{Optionally you can pre-order lunch (£15) and dinner (£25)}
