For those who are new to Geomag I just thought I'd take some time to remember one of the best of us.
Although I can't say that I knew Rafael on anything but a fleeting personal level, his work has served as an inspiration to me from the start.
For those of you who aren't aware of his work take a look at http://textodigital.com/P/GG/bindex.php his work is nothing short of stunning.
RIP Rafael, you may be gone but you'll never be forgotten
