Raphael's course isn't available anywhere unfortunately. I even went so far
as to send CGSociety a mail and their attitude could be summed up by 'Soft
is dead, so we're unwilling to sell the course material & recordings'. Not
great, especially seeing as I've had a number of people recommend it to me
over the years.

If Raphael is willing, it's the sort of thing that would be great to have
over on si-community.com
