A lot of people I've talked to like to polarize artistic creativity and academic intelligence. I think this is the perfect refutation of that, and a clear example that creativity and intellect are perfectly similar in proportion. Creativity hightens capacity for understanding, and understanding hightens capacity for creativity. Thanks for sharing this flagamuffin, my respect for Feynman just hit all-time highs :))

My father is an abstract artist. He went to school for it (dropped out due to sheer ego) and tries to pass on the skills to me, and I am also very commited to the piano. I guess I'm pretty adept in the creative aspect now, and I like to think my open thought contributes to my performance in school.
