[@randazzoworld8940]

As a Bostonian, I wish I could have been at this lecture! Wonderfully done!

[@adhoc9647]

What an extraordinarily insightful, scholarly, and eloquent presentation on a subject that had been a mystery to me. Cannot thank you enough, Sir!

He didn't want to his methods, thoughts, ideas, ways, and work to be copied or plundered by others in any way. I'm 100% sure that's why he burnt his drawings.
Likewise, Leonardo mirror-wrote so his ideas were safe . He had studies in many areas besides art and didn't want one word of it within anyone else's reach.
Frankly, I'm the same way, only I don't burn drawings or mirror write. I just keep people away from my papers. I won't put art on the internet for that reason.
Some artists are just like that.

Quite possibly the second worst documentary I've ever seen on the subject.

[@tomshaw1015]

What is a good one?

[@darkl0rds]

This isn't a documentary, cuh. It is a lecture.

[@nidhishshivashankar4885]

Its also quite definitely the worst chicken I’ve ever seen (because it isn’t one)
