One of them is Joseph Fourier.
I would guess probably like Gauss, Newton, Von Neumann, or Grothendieck, but I haven't actually studied their work directly enough to gauge that and don't pay close enough attention to the history behind the math I'm learning to know who contributed what to any given field. Based on the work I'm most familiar with, I would say:
Scientific would be either Richard Montague, Noam Chomsky, or Alfred Tarski.
For artistic, I would say Sergei Rachmaninoff, Alexander Scriabin, or Chopin. However, I also really like Dostoevsky and Kafka if were looking at writers.
The single greatest mind overall, I think though, is Wittgenstein, but philosophers are neither artists nor scientists.
On a related note, the most difficult subject matter in the maths/sciences are like branches of proof theory that are highly topological and draw on various branches of abstract algebra and topology. Shit is almost impossible. Maybe in a few years it'll start to come together.
Paul Erdos (Math) and Zoltan Kodaly (Music)
Both are hungarians, fucking hungary you badass mothefucker
Numberphile? I'm sorry, I watch Wildberger classes.
Why Wittgenstein?
this wildberger shitposting is getting out of hand.
or Wittgenstein
Nikola Tesla

karl friston and khabib nurmagomedov
wildberger, zizek
Kurt Godel, Jerry Garcia
pick one faggot
Brunelleschi, Brunelleschi
Ravioli Ravielli
von neumann 6th post, shameful
greatest brain power: von neumann
greatest lasting impact: who knows, it will take a long time to fully realise the implications of these intellectual titan's discoveries.
probably newton though, because he accelerated understanding of fundamental things so profoundly for the entire world.
the next newton will be more abstract, eg his work will lead to a new revolution such as FTL travel or something like that, which we wont realise for a long time to come

Shakespear
African music was actually more complex than any of that Euro trash shit
Most of Shakespear's stuff has been found to be cowritten.
Joke's on you, I actually really like African music.

Yeah, no, it hasn't.
KEK
Not a home to spoon feed some sources but there has been Stylometry studies they've done with computers in recent years that makes it seem that most of his works weren't purely his own.
Behold the most complex music ever.
Okay
Scientific - Alfred Tarski
Musical - Scriabin
Literary - Dostoevsky
Philosophical - Wittgenstein
Not saying Da Vinci for both.. wtf /sci
(You)
this
tarski?
what he do?
Probably someone who was crap at socializing and died alone and unrecognized.

>artistic
Me.
Cannot agree with Bach here. Homie used strict mathematical theory to his compositions and had not an ounce of emotion compared to romaticists and post-romanticists
...
Isaac newton for sure
Newton was autismo supreme, and remained eternally butthurt that the rest of the world didn't about his own personal notation.
Da Vinci
always has been, always will be
>Chopin
>No Bach or Bethoven
Why?
>not literally picking Lord Kelvin or James Clerk Maxwell
>Archimedes, Descartes
I guess. How about Euler or Fermat?
>Newton
Good pick. I'd opine most would pick him or Einstein. Me? I'd pick Rutherford or Faraday. Or even Seaborg
>Bach
No no no....Debussy!
>Paint
Cezzanne
>Dostoevski
Good pick. Mine would easily be Frost (in my youth), Hemingway (currently)

No argument there
