Working behind the counter at a futon store in Tacoma, Wash., is not the place you would expect to find a man some call a mathematical genius of unprecedented proportions.
Jason Padgett, 41, sees complex mathematical formulas everywhere he looks and turns them into stunning, intricate diagrams he can draw by hand. He’s the only person in the world known to have this incredible skill, which he obtained by sheer accident just a decade ago.
“I’m obsessed with numbers, geometry specifically,” Padgett said. “I literally dream about it. There’s not a moment that I can’t see it, and it just doesn’t turn off.”
Padgett doesn’t have a PhD, a college degree or even a background in math. His talent was born out of a true medical mystery that scientists around the world are still trying to unravel.
Here’s Padgett explaining in more detail what he “sees”:
And here is the type of stuff he draws as a result:
It reminded me of the image from last year, captured by scientists, showing the individual chemical bonds between atoms:
See what I mean?
Along with, because this is Disinfo and we’re no strangers to Sacred Geometry here, Metatron’s Cube:
Might be a bit of a stretch.
