Was Leonardo da Vinci a Renaissance artistor the first true futurist? Living in a world without engines, electricity, or modern materials, Leonardo imagined flying machines, armored vehicles, and robotics centuries before they were possible. As the ultimate polymath, he blurred the line between art and engineering, using observation of nature to design human-centered machines and systems. While he correctly anticipated principles of flight, anatomy, and complex infrastructure, his ideas were limited by the lack of power sources, materials, and manufacturing and his ideas remained only in his notebooks. Yet his legacy endures as the blueprint for curiosity-driven innovation, proving that imagination often arrives long before technology catches up.

Please join Greg, Ian, and McKay as we as we explore one of the most inventive and brilliant minds in history, a man who ignored the boundaries between art, science, architecture, and engineering and was sketching the future long before it arrived.
