Where has the origami screen saver gone?

I've recently upgraded to Ventura and I cannot see Origami screensaver amongst the options.


I absolutely love Origami and I'd really like to have it back, folding my screens into coloured segments.


  1. Is it hidden somewhere?
  2. Is there a third party "origami" screen saver that I can replace it with?

The screensaver is called Photos.

Select it, and then from the Style popup menu choose Origami.

Thank you!


The fact that it was under "Photos" misled me.


After you pointed me in the right direction I realised that I've been using Origami as a screen saver on work machines, and the unusual thing is that they don't have any photos to display. In the absence of photos, all of the photo options display blocks of colour. Three of the options generate beautiful flat colour tiles: Origami, Shifting Tiles, and Sliding Panels.


The options button allows you to choose a source, and one of the options is "Colours." So it's possible to specify this option even when a photo library is present.
