MASTERCLASS PRESENTATION by Massimiliano Finazzer Flory:

Art and Science
Memory and Imagination
Tradition and Technology
Theater and Cinema

Leonardo defined himself not only as an artist and a philosopher, as scientists were called at that time, but also as an inventor. According to him, an inventor is a person able to create an artifact or an artwork by assembling different elements in a new configuration that doesn’t exist in nature. This definition comes very close to our concept of Designer, which did not exist in the Renaissance; in fact Leonardo summarized in his work art, science and functionality, which today is what we call Design.
