The human mind is so complex, there is no boundaries for what it can do to astonish you.

His friends must get the best birthday cards.
Or, that's where all the ugly ones go.
IMightBeADuck He gets a raging hardon over paper and pop up cards, willing to bet he doesnt have loads of friends...
super very nice
Jake Shire, I'd be his friend.
Yes, but at the same time it's very hard for his friends find the right birthday card
Christopher Helkey thanks for sharing..such a amazing
Astounding!!!! Beautiful! !
Sir, that is breath taking. There is no other way to describe it, and anyone should be humbled and honored if they receive a card like what you created for any occasion.

Beautiful artwork. Thank you for sharing your gift with the world.
Now THIS is oddly satisfying.
WOW KEEP UP WHAT YOUR DOING, YOUR AMAZING, FUCK THE HATERS....HATERS ONLY HATE BECAUSE THEY CANT DO ANYTHING 👍
The passion in his voice is so beautiful that it just cannot be put into words.
Amazing artworks you make! Just go BIGGER!
Must be a tremendous amount of thought goes into these designs.
Oh how stunningly wonderful! The amount of time and effort that go into these truly gorgeous pieces must be phenomenal! I read some of the comments below and I thought the music went with the movements of the pieces quite well actually. :) Well, you have yourself another subscriber today, and I cannot wait to share this video!

I LOVE CREATIVE PEOPLE!
These popup cards are just gorgeous! Thanks for sharing!
Great work, so fascinating and a really amazing message. It is important not to give up, to keep working at things step by step, everyone has to start somewhere. Peter's sense of curiosity, wonder, and ingenuity is infectious, love it.
It's always so wonderful watching you work. The movement is so beautiful. It is magical when you see what appears from a closed piece of card stock.. You have a special gift and I'm thankful that I can see these videos from time to time.. Thank you so much for sharing with all of us your wonderful talent............pat
Pat, Thank you so much for your kind comment about Peter Dahmen! I am glad you enjoyed the video! :)
oh yest who wouldn't......he is a marvel........I love watching how he works.....thank you for sharing this...pat
You are very welcome :)
Thank you Peter and Christopher for giving us a truly magical glimpse into Peter's world. It really puts over Peter's sense of curiosity and how he became the engineer he is, and I love how his work exemplifies that "necessity is the mother of invention" when he explained how he needed to transport his 3D work easily and so made it foldable to 2D to transport. The film is delightful, taking our eye right into the stuctures. Delightful and informative and both film and structures beautifully envisioned and put together, actually moved me to tears in a couple of places!
Very, very, fantastic!!!
Excellent creation - thanks for demo & designs
He took the art origami to a whole new level. How in the world does figured out the complex angles and shapes?
+peter yeung This is not origami, origami is simply folding a square piece of paper into a shape, cuts and the use of glue are not allowed.

Hi Peter. Tbh I am almost lost for words at the sheer beauty of your fascinating work. Thanks for sharing with us your art, and art it certainly is. NASA may be interested in this type of work, condensing things to a minimum and at the same time being able to expand when necessary. I know they use origami artists for such things as solar sails and solar cells. The art of folding to the absolute minimum is a requirement close to every NASA`s scientists hearts. My thanks are also extended to Christopher Helkey for a superb and very well put together video. The quality was excellent. Most sincerely JF ( UK )
+PatricK WithaKay Thank you for your kind words about Peter and the compliment on my video. Best wishes from Los Angeles! Thank you for the advice on NASA.
Peter, WoW !! all your work is beautiful and full of creativity. love it!! Congrats ! and thanks for sharing ✔💟✔
Amazing artwork. The flowing motion of some of the cards is tremendous. Great work!
even as a child put his first palm of paint on to a paper is beautiful....until someone told them "it's ugly"/ "it's childish"...etc...please dont be a dream crusher...don't judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree...be a motivator! let art flow like the tao...peace.
+Be Content and silent the mind IF A FISH CLIMBS A TREE ILL TAKE IT :pPPPPPP
something so genuine which i got to see after a long time
These are GORGEOUS!
So im guessing this guy never had a problem re-folding the paper map in the car...
this is cool :)
+Leah Gage Thanks! Peter Dahmen is awesome!
Wow what an ingenious man , good understanding of the materials he's working with .Beautiful creations . Also i like the style with which it was filmed as well . Gentle and understated ,allowing the artist to shine.
amazing!!! no words!!!!!
you need to make money from this hobby dude :D selling gift cards within that concept is an epic idea👍🏼
***** wew.. that's epic :D can you build 3D gift card for my GF? (don't build first, I don't know the price)

***** Thank you👍🏼 good luck with your business :D

+Krishna V Hi Krishna. Peter Dahmen has some amazing pop-up card tutorials on his youtube channel. Here is a great video from Peter kzhead.info/sun/oauJebOyaIODeKc/bejne.html
I admire your talent of being able to see in and execute your art in 3D! Amazing and beautiful!
Wow! Amazing! Such beautiful pieces.
the last song is arrival of the birds orchestra and a mixture of another song

paper p0rn starts @ 4:35

Beautiful! Captivating!

Oh wow, you are amazing.Peter, thanks for sharing.
Incredibly! You are admired for your skill and wonderful works !!!
4.34min background music what the title.....plsss
Not sure who created this particular version, but it's a variation of 'Arrival of the Birds' by 'The Cinematic Orchestra'. This is a nice rendition, and the original is quite good as well.
You should check out the Arrival Of The Birds + Transformation song since both songs actually complete each other.
I can fold and make a paper airplane.
Whoa, we got a badass over here XD
TheBirchWoodTree hahahahaha 😂
+TheBirchWoodTree XD
hahaahaa I make boat
Does it fly? Mine flies right into the nearest floor or wall 2" Away!

Great video. Been watching Peters work for years. His work is wonderful!
wie man direkt merkt, dass er Deutscher ist😂
dachte ich mir auch
Im allerersten moment😂
Gleich eindeutig.
aber sowas von
Dilan Adler 0mhgb
name of the song, please? 5:20
+DJ Milo Hey DJ Milo. It's a composition by Steven Settinger www.steven-settinger.de/ Contact him for info. He is an amazing composer
+ChristopherHelkey thank you
i think the name of the song, it is a soundtrack from Theory of Everything
It sounds like an edited ver of Arrival of the birds & Transformation by Cinematic Orchestra.
Yeah, first thing I thought when I heard it. It's definitely Arrival of the Birds, I hope he hasn't ripped it off to make money.
Amazing work. Fantastic.
Simply Brilliant!
why is this guy not working for nasa?
haha
Because ESA is better :P
what is ESA ????
European Space Agency
A` ok!! thank you ^^
Dieses typische Englisch von Deutschen :'D
isso xD
ja:D
Hab es mir auch gedacht🙉
Wenigstens kann man es als Schulenglisch gelernthabender Deutscher dann auch gut verstehen. ;-) Ja, es macht wirklich Freude, sich dieses Video anzuschauen. Es kann einen dazu animieren, sowas auch mal selbst zu versuchen. Echt wunderschön! ( kzhead.info/sun/hMmwZ7SAmn1_gWg/bejne.html Willst Du glücklich sein? Dann sei es!")
So amazing works! Thanks for sharing )
How beautiful. Thank you.
The creativity in this is.... unimaginable. I never thought I'd see someone work like this with paper. Truly amazing. Truly outrageous. Well done to whoever decided to make this video, and well done to Peter too.
Just beautiful, Thank you.
that was stunningly beautiful. I was captivated by the scale, intricacies, and out right beauty of the pieces almost as much as i was enthralled with the actual movement of them. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful talent. And to anyone who thinks that a talent like this should be "sold" doesn't understand that somethings are devalued once you turn it into profit. May this art always be in your heart. Hugs.
OMG ! Loved it.
“Movement is the beautiful thing.” Yes! I love it!!!
beautiful and magical. Love them all.
Breathtaking!
His art, his process, even his narrative, especially his humility ...are ethereal, hypnotic. Just watching and listening has such a calming effect. (Of course, if I were cutting, measuring, gluing -- there would be no serenity, no peace, just a decoupaging twit who gave up long before Art had a chance lol!) Bravo Mr Dahmen for revealing the fortitude and patience that is exacted for creativity to have a chance. You have both and more -- in unparalleled, spectacular abundance.
I also was always amazed by movement of pop up cards - never actually by story or the shape itself. This art is like poetry - beautiful
Really Amazing.....I can see the happiness on your heart after seeing each of your finished work....you are a great artist..
I love Peter's work. I've missed seeing him. Thanks for the upload.
Absolutely amazing! Keep loving what you do!
This person who put this video together did a great job editing .. but no one ll think of the work to make the video just the artist that made the art.. they both did great job.
Wonderful art, beautifully filmed and on-point music. What a delight!
Enthralled...very beautiful and genius creativity.
Sir, respect to you. The way you speak, your eyes and that "unfolding of the mystery"..... its speaks something beyond my words could possibly describe.....
Very inspiring words! never give up. Beautiful work!
I really have no words ! Bow !
Incredible and beautiful work! What an art form.
Soo beautiful !
