Interview with Dr. Lang by Nick M. - St. Mark's School, Dallas, TX

I interviewed Dr. Lang on Sunday, as he was folding origami for the origami rainforest.  He was a really great person to interview. The way he went about his origami was inspiring to me because it was perfect every time.  My first question I asked Dr. Lang was, “How do math and origami relate to conservation”?  I had never really thought about that before but when he gave the answer it made sense.  Math is a part of everything. It underlies origami and it can also help us figure out what will happen to our world in the future. Also, it was very interesting to find out that  Dr. Lang starting liking math from a series of books written by Martin Gardner and not from school classes.
