Tim Jenison, Inventor and Ersatz Painter (EG8)

May: 2014, Tim Jenison shares his extraordinary 5-year journey of discovery, which is documented in the film 'Tim's Vermeer', and is joined by Master Forger Ken Perenyi. Founder of NewTek and pioneer in digital video and computer graphics, Tim Jenison is an inventor, hacker, and keyboard player who has built his own pipe organ, flies his own aircraft — and is the magnificent obsessive who took half a decade to maniacally reverse engineer a Vermeer painting using the “Vermirrors” and cleve optical aids thought by David Hockney and others to have been employed by Vermeer.
