Leonardo - the Renaissance in my view is a symbol for the birth
of humanity in the western culture, but also the beginning
of the scientific development which strongly influences our life nowadays.
These worlds (philosophy and science) have been one in former times.

The changing world at the end of this millenium seems
to disperse but also i 'see' a movements/tendency
to renew the situation overall. Might be thru the integration
of different leagues like art and science.
