Spot on. The article focuses a lot on 'artistic genius'. Actually it jumps a lot between a great deal of things. There's a leap between the photographer who invented new technology, to Jason Padgett who began seeing the world in a weird way, to dementia-patients who begin drawing as parts of their brains decay.

There's not much mentioned of geniuses in the meaning of people who further scientific theories like Einstein or whatever example one might give. They only hint that such people might often have autism, and try to explain that with left/right brain development.

Which if I recall correctly has been highly disputed since the 1960 Nobel Prize. If nothing else the explanation of autism and savant autism in the article are gross oversimplifications.
