I don’t listen to a lot of podcasts but this interview hits too close to home for me not to listen. Cameron discusses homeschool, web design, and working from home—three things I spend a lot of time thinking about of late.

John Dilworth’s artwork has everything I love. Geometry, Math, Design, Art, Golden Section, Patterns, History and Good Taste. I’m green with envy. I wish I was that good.

Fortunately, I don’t have to be that good – I can now buy John Dilworth’s artwork.

I had built my own solution using AppleScript and Quicksilve custom triggers. However, it didn’t prevent the normal screen saver from launching if I had already started it. Hopefully, this overcomes that shortcoming.

It breaks my heart to see him go. We enjoyed just a little over a year together designing the webs. Although it hasn’t been long, I will miss him.

I’m hopeful for the future. I’m glad that we’ll still have contact through our related orgnizations. Perhaps our futures are both brighter for this change.

Thanks, Nic. See you soon.

P.S. – Note to self – stop introducing Cameron to new hires.

Well done Mark!
