Tim’s Vermeer

—“Tim’s Vermeer” was the most captivating of the films I saw today. Really beautiful and interesting, leading us to consider the link between creativity and invention, and between art and science—traits which once converged in the likes of da Vinci or Michelangelo are now seen nearly mutually exclusive. Of course, media geeks will be interested to know that “Tim” is the founder of NewTek (of Video Toaster, Lightwave 3D, and TriCaster fame). "Tim's Vermeer" is worth seeing if you get a chance.
