I can't stand scientist and doctors and professors. They think that everything is psychical laws an mechanics and chemical reactions. They completely deny the existence of the human soul.

Perspective is at ... ( 2 weeks ago by prussian66)

Perspective is at this stage a well known formula anyone can learn. Felt or seen from the front, sides and tops of buildings are straight lines. The sides moving away from you go up at the bottom and down at the top. The sea and sky are blue, plants are green etc etc. Paint bottles can be labelled in braille or be of different sizes etc for easy recognition once named.

If you can feel an ... ( 2 weeks ago by prussian66)

If you can feel an object you can draw it remembering the formula and if you cant you can draw the symbol for a boat etc etc. Lots of blind people paint or draw the question is why?

i've heard of ... ( 5 days ago by logopants)

i've heard of people who draw with their eyes closed, which makes sense cus it helps you to see the image in your mind..... but when you've never seen anything at all before, thats something else And how does he know what color whatever he's painting is? Or which paint to use?

Why would this make ... ( 5 days ago by SnAkEsIdOl)

Why would this make scientists think about how we see things?, he admits that he feels objects and then knows how to draw them.

wow, unbelieveable. ... ( 4 days ago by bluexmoonxmusic)

wow, unbelieveable...that is truly amazing. how can he see those colors and images without even knowing what they look like in the first place? that, right there, is truly remarkable.

because it also has ... ( 4 days ago by thestar13)

because it also has to do with perception of light, color, and shading which he cannot feel

i dont no if you ... ( 3 days ago by warrock37)

i dont no if you took an art clase but scientist find it wierd how he understands light witch he had not seen and how an object looks from far when he can not see it and how things must be shaped in order to be solid and how thing look depending on how things react whene he can not see and also how he understand color and witch colours to use witch again he cant not see

what i find wierd ... ( 3 days ago by warrock37)

what i find wierd and cool is how he dosent draw over his pic with another pic and how all his lines are in the right area

You just have to be ... ( 3 days ago by Knowth66)

You just have to be told the sky is blue then you find the blue bottle of paint. The bottle can have any mark that can be felt to distinguish it. Clouds are white and fluffy so you dip your finger in white paint and dab. He does not have to understand light or see into the distance.If a blind person can hear they are told what the world looks like what colours things are, its a mental not a visual understanding.

i agree for some of ... ( 3 days ago by warrock37)

i agree for some of the things but you cant understand what fluffy is if you cant see it same with light and if you dident pay mutch atention to the vid it said that his brain doesent react the same that ares u cant understand evrething by someone telling you most things u must see to understand and he can sherly understand evrything dident you ever read the book the giver that could explain alot and so can the book the nothing
