Well this guy has an incredible photographic memory, he can draw a entire cityscape with one fly over, here is a few of his videos showing his talent.



I think this is amazing what he can do.

Take a look at his website also:

If you're interested in that stuff, you should read the book Born on a Blue Day by Daniel Tammet. He's an autistic savant and he can recite 22,000+ digits of Pi from memory. He can memorize languages in about 2 weeks. The book is genuinely written and it's fascinating to read his explanations as to how he sees things in his mind and his thought processes behind things.

The only reason I know what this is, is because there was an episode of House with Dave Matthews as a savant... in you guessed it; music.

It was pretty neat to look up afterwords. You've gotta feel bad for those affected by it, but at the same time, we find it interesting.

If savants fascinate you, you will love this guy.



I forget if that video shows several of his paintings or just describes him, kind of, and I don't feel like watching it again to find out lol, but if it's not that one it'll be another one on YouTube.

That's humbling and mesmerizing to watch, especially being an artist and just spending last night drawing under my magnifying glass lamp. Staring right at a stinking tea cup I have to look up constantly to get more details in my head. i only wish these guys didn't have to give up so much of life for their ability.
