Nikola Tesla was also proof of this and there are a lot of similarities between these two in that respect, actually way more now I think about it. You could round out the trio by throwing Van Gogh in if you wish because not many people know that the swirls and patterns he painted were actually the background cosmic radiation that the rest needed tech to envision whilst he peeped game with his natural talents:

Eventually they'll get it... Just rarely does that happen in the moment.
Does that speak on the genius? The nature of the System that pulls the world over the eyes of the innocent or something far larger and greater beyond all of this that lies dormant within us all as most never suspect the true length and breadth of their powers in this realm.
