Talk videos (for complete list of all talks see my CV)

This is a talk I gave in July 2025 at the ICAM-I2CAM Frustrated Assemblies workshop, at the University of Michigan. It covers some older work of mine, specifically the following three papers:

https://doi.org/10.1063/5.0044158
https://doi.org/10.1098/rspa.2022.0230

This is a talk I gave at the 2025 APS Global Physics Summit. It’s about our paper with the same title, which you can read here: https://doi.org/10.1098/rspa.2024.0387 . The paper was featured on the cover of the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society A.

This is a talk I gave at the 2021 SIAM Mathematical Aspects of Materials Science conference. It’s about our paper with the same title, which you can read here: https://arxiv.org/abs/2101.07041 . The talk leans more in the origami direction than the paper, just because I was asked to speak at the origami-focused part of the conference. If you’re wondering why I seem to be so attached to that banana picture, it’s because it took me about 50 attempts to take it for the paper, to find just the right angle :/
