Perspective
Perspective drawings that began in the 14th Century have evolved into much of the technology we now use today. 3D modeling, augmented reality, virtual reality, holographic projections are just some of the inventions that came from perspective drawing.
Mathematics
The Science of Patterns
When you move your perspective from math being a language to math being the science of patterns, doors will open up. No longer is math a cold, abstract, unemotional field of study. It moves from black & white to COLOR!
Engineering
Problem Solving
The purpose of the engineer is to solve problems through innovation or creating a new invention.
Many of Leonardo's inventions were innovative and likewise, many of his futuristic inventions were new concepts.
