Folding is a language of structure. This is the central tenet in the ongoing field of artistic research known as oribotics–the nexus of tradition and technology expressed as the robotisation of paper folding.

The ORI*lab investigated the syntax and grammar of the language of folding to create new methods in art science discourse.
