I've heard of this guy.  I remember the painting with a fly's hair.

That's crazy.  I showed it to some friends, they think it's crazy too. =P How amazingly awesome, even though the human-blood-cell-size art still seems farfetched.  How on earth...o_O

What is crazy is that he said he always had problems learning, and can't even read or write, but yet he can do this.  Also, it is crazy that he can't learn to read or write, but yet he is smart enough to know that it is the static that pulls the molecules of paint off the fly hair.  It is crazy how the human brain can work.

Yes it is amazing how the human brain works. If you believe the story about Einstein having very little common sense, besides being a Genius, it sort of makes you think of the brain in relation to a computer. For example, this guys artistic genius is like a 318gb program on a 320gb HDD. Not leaving much space for the intake of other knowledge etc, hindering his ability to read and write.
