Federico Leoni kick-starts our #Leonardo500 Symposium @gloknoscentre @CRASSHlive with Da Vinci’s ‘I am a man without letters’. What is a letter? A technology, a grammar, a language of essences, argues Federico. "The Indo-European grammar gives us a quiet universe of stated things - everything is what its name says it should or must be. Everything is 'near itself'. Being is discreet within this paradigm. The inessential 'is not'. " (Federico Leoni) #Leonardo500 @gloknoscentre @CRASSHlive
