Leonardo Da Vinci was an inventor, painter, sculptor, architect, scientist, musician, mathematician, engineer, writer, geologist, botanist, astronomer, physician, cartographer, historian, palaentologist, ichnologist, and philosopher. Many of his designs and drawings for inventions were 400+ years ahead of his time. The guy knew his shit...

It was specifically going on about Trump that sent him to #1 in the ratings. And that might sound like a cheap way to get ratings, but as we've seen, it was also a very important service -- Trump hasn't even tried to hide his contempt for democracy, and 70+% of Republicans have bought into his bogus claims about a fraudulent election. If there wasn't a mouthpiece for, you know, actual facts, who knows where we'd be right now.

@bas8116 7 лет назад

Was listing to this radio program a couple of weeks ago they had a university librarian on talking about how they where now starting projects to archive digital correspondence of the prominent scientist working there because that's how these conversations take place now and it will all be lost if they don't do something about it and historians and biographers etc of the future wont have all this correspondence available like the collections of letters they are using now.

Is it weird, that I know, let's just say the very basics of Da Vinci, just from playing Assassin's Creed 2 and Assassin's Creed Brotherhood. Obviously I don't live under a rock and knew of him but AC did a pretty great job at lecturing while playing a video game.

It is fascinating how people are fascinated with Da Vinci inasmuch as so many authors have given (and will continue to do so ad foreverum) their take on his life & works. I thought Charles Nicholl's was the definitive Da Vinci's biography but oh well it seems like there's no such thing as "definitive" in this field. One of those gifts that keep on giving.

@chasingenigma7482 6 лет назад

to put it simply and short Da Vinci is a UNIVERSAL GENIUS, one that isnt bound by the shackles of his era, his curiosity drove him in all fields. The only difference between him and other scientist is that he wasnt published If his works had been published he would also be one of the celebrated scientist today. Theres a saying "jack of all trades, master of none" Da Vinci shits on that phrase.

@TheVeevinci 7 лет назад

Suchh a fantastic interview

@rafaelm.5148 7 лет назад

Not sure about Walter Isaacson interpretation of the square and circle. Da Vinci was studying esthetic proportions, from the Greek to the Roman established esthetics rules. I think he tried to find his own "General Model" by creating a model that would match his own esthetic. The circle circumference follows the legs directions, as the square fits from head to toes and the end of the arms. So much to learn from Da Vinci in art, technology, science!

@SandraNelson063 7 лет назад

There has been a lot of research lately into the painting that we think of as the Mona Lisa. Turns out that that isn't who is in the picture. That particular work was actually painted over several times. He was commissioned and paid to do a painting for someone, and he got part way through it, then stop, and moved. Didn't pay back his patron. Then he was commissioned to do a couple of portraits of the Lady Mona Lisa. He did one, and was working on doing another. Then he moved again. With that same unfinished work. Then he was commissioned to do a portrait of a lord's dead mistress, a memorial tribute. And that's what we see now. Yes, she looks a lot like the other Mona portrait. But it was proven that the hair style and clothing choices were not what La Gioconda would be wearing. The picture follows the style of a memorial painting from that time. Leo kept reusing that same piece of wood to work on, putting down layers of paint on top of layers of paint. So, in his work shop, he would have said "Bring me that panel, the one I was doing the Mona Lisa on. I'll use that for my patron's tribute to his mistress." Economical. Don't splurge on a new panel when you have one already to hand, already primed. Is it a beautiful painting? Oh yes. But should we call it Mona Lisa? Nope.

Fun fact; the average person today knows far more about all the subject Leanardo Da Vinci studies than Da Vinci could have ever hoped to learn... imagine what people will be studying in another 500 years

L K so you're saying that the average person doesn't any know as much as he did? So the average person doesn't understand flight, chemistry, geology, hydrodynamics etc? And it's not incredibly easy to learn about those subjects? And by today's standards he wouldn't be an expert on any of those subjects, they were groundbreaking for his time, but it's all common knowledge now...

@BrotherVex 6 лет назад

nhyijy Your average person doesn't know half the shit Da Vinci knew. Ask them how many bones in the human body something a lot of people learn as kids and you'll get an awkward laugh and a faint smile. Ask them to explain how perspective is achieved in good art. Ask them to explain anything that Da Vinci could explain and they would have to pull out their phones and Google it.

@frowlinian8175 6 лет назад

Brother Vex okay then, maybe I overestimate the average person? I don’t consider myself an overly intelligent person but I know the answer to both of your question, and, atleast the basics, of all the subjects that davinci studied... but even then, the simple fact that it can be googled and atleast understood on the basic level after a few minutes is an incredible advancement, is it not? I’m not downing davinci, which is how it might seem. I just think it’s easy to forget just how far technology and society in general has evolved in such a relatively short period of time. And all of that was achieved by “standing on the soldiers of giants”. Giants like davinci, and Copernicus, and (ironically) newton and a few thousand more that we have to thank... I was simply saying, look how much was unknown at that time, something completely out of left field and unfathomable to almost everyone short of the greatest intellectuals at that time is now in a 3rd science class...

It is because you know nothing about Steve Jobs that you say that. But the man received a National Medal of Technology for "introducing the personal computer", invented the Super Bowl ad and after establishing Pixar, became the largest individual shareholder of Disney, becoming a *billionaire* through 2 separate companies. Today, the iPhone is THE most successful consumer electronics device in HISTORY, in a mere 10 years. So to recap, he introduced personal computers, he innovated them via the GUI, he later innovated them again via the smartphone (multitouch input, ubiquitous internet and multifunctional apps). That's 3 revolutions to computers. This is an achievement that *cannot* be replicated.

@sodorflubbs5000 7 лет назад

IQ tests are horrible at showing why some one would act a certain way weather is good, bad, smart, or dumb. Luck and smart/hard working people that worked under jobs are more genius than he would ever be. Here's the truth about Jobs... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-E3s-qZsjK8I.html Calling Jobs a genius is like calling the founder of MacDonalds a gourmet chef.
