Hidden power of the brain
« on: January 05, 2014, 01:36:33 PM »
Have any of you seen the work of artist Stephen Wiltshire ?  He is an autistic chap who has been on TV in the UK for the past 20 years.
He can look at a scene of a city for a few minutes and then draw it from memory. He's flown over all the major cities by helicopter and then draws them. Every window on every building perfect.

Take a look at the film of his drawing of Rome. Unbelievable what the human mind is capable of.


He did New York a while back. Pity about the ignorant interviewers.



The funny thing is, when he fills in the details of cars on the streets he does them as 1970's cars for some reason  :o

Why is super intelligence a form of retardation?  It seems that once the brain opens up the human body is not capable of handling it.

What's crazy is you could give someone a photo to copy from and they couldn't match the same detail.

London around Parliament and Stephen at work. All from seeing the scene for a few minutes by helicopter.

Yes, an excellent artist, not bad for a guy who was mute until he was five and now sells his pictures for six-figure sums. There's an 8-month waiting list for commissioned works as well.

Our mind is like mirror.
It referects everything in this universe clearly.
But its shame that that mirror is dirty with our thoughts..
