.@KenBurns' journey into filmmaking started with a simple, cardboard camera. In this moment from Hark Daily, @debbiemillman dives into legendary documentarian's origin story. Listen here: share.harkaudio.com/MicCfJ1CgCzQ6J…


Leonardo wrote almost everything backwards in mirror script—a habit born from his left-handedness, to avoid ink smudges. @KenBurns and Sarah Burns discuss how this technique puts Leonardo’s innovative mind on display. LEONARDO da VINCI premieres November 18 on @pbs


Florence artisans carry on Leonardo’s legacy, often using the same techniques. From smelting to sculpture, these workshops echo the colors, smells, and tools of Renaissance craft. @KenBurns and David McMahon share how filming these traditions revealed Leonardo’s world.


.@KenBurns and David McMahon explain why they chose to use split screens - a notable departure from their traditional filmmaking style - in LEONARDO da VINCI to show Leonardo’s genius alongside nature imagery and modern footage.


In 1955, the Brooklyn Dodgers clinched their first World Series title at Yankee Stadium, ending a 52-year wait. Fast forward to 2024, the Los Angeles Dodgers returned to New York and defeated the Yankees in the Bronx, securing their eighth championship. Congratulations, @Dodgers


The Mona Lisa is more than a portrait—it's the culmination of a life spent exploring the fusion of art, science and the natural world, in which Leonardo captures the mysteries of the mind and the human experience. LEONARDO da VINCI premieres November 18 and 19 on @PBS
