Greetings from California
« on: September 28, 2015, 02:39:15 »
Hello All,

I was a sporadically active member at the other place and had the great pleasure of meeting Bjørn at the UK workshop he delivered a few years ago, as well as a few others of you.

I look set to be sporadically active here, too - I registered in June but this is my first post.

Last time I contributed I was in Minnesota despite hailing from Coventry in the UK, but I have moved again to take up a post with Tesla in California. It's proving an exciting time (aka "difficult") and I have only just got some kind of sensible bandwidth connection, furniture, etc.

Looking forward to some good quality discussions again!

Damian, Tesla is a hard piece of work. I read Ashlee Vance and I know Musk is into getting the maximum from any employee. This guy has a mission, making money is just a necessary condition to save the world and colonize Mars. You are really in a very interesting place now. Hope to see you anyway, here and in workshops like Scotland next year. I missed you very much. See ya &WELCOME

You are out there. You and your camera. You can shoot or not shoot as you please. Discover the world, Your world. Show it to us. Or we might never see it.
