Description

Can studying the brains of savants help us to understand where human creativity comes from? In this episode, viewers will meet two young autistic men with extraordinary artistic abilities: 18-year-old Matt Savage of Boston, who has been playing jazz piano since he was seven years old, and 36-year-old Stephen Wiltshire of London, England, who draws detailed, panoramic cityscapes entirely from memory.
