Crazy Origami

Recently in another art class, paper was a media choice. Normally my interaction with paper is drawing on it, painting on it, and/or making a paper airplane. Never did I really consider its worth as a media in itself, until one of my professors showed some crazy art using solely paper, and maybe some glue and scissors. I started getting curious. What else was out there?

The two art styles I found the most interesting was high level origami, and paper sculpture. I've been trying a few different techniques recently, and finding it quite fun. I personally love origami, just because I am so mystifyied by how much can be done with just folds~.
Here is some link love:
