This is an idea I stole from Dan Olson of Folding Ideas - in effect, this is a remake of a video I did five years ago that hasn’t been online for a while, like a second edition, an updated version of a textbook. There was a lot there that I felt was worthy of revisiting, and more still that I wanted to add. Some of the bones are still there, but this version is much more streamlined and heavier researched, and the irrelevant excess has been cut.
