Or could there be and real benafits from folding thin sheet metal using origami techniques, to create an attractive and unually strong structure??
An example would be say a fence with gates.
Imagine how attractive it would be and how resistant to things like strong winds it would be.. you could design it to flex and even bend but to never break, tear or snap..
Its just an "out of box" thought..
Mind you it would be terribly wastefull of materials..
Mostly because I'm incharge or all things that plug in.. and some that don't (IE PABX, Mobile Phones, Photocopiers, Servers, Desktops, Network, Wireless, Planning, Budgeting, and the HelpDesk Lad..).

I've been waiting for the 5.1 version of these to come out..
The loudest/clearest set of PC speakers I've ever heard.. utterly brilliant..
