[PAR] [TLE] Viola organista [SEP] The viola organista is a musical instrument designed by Leonardo da Vinci.  It uses a friction belt to vibrate individual strings (similar to how a violin produces sounds), with the strings selected by pressing keys on a keyboard (similar to an organ).  Leonardo's design has intrigued instrument makers for more than 400 years.  But though similar instruments have been built, no extant instrument constructed directly from Leonardo's incomplete designs is known. [PAR] [TLE] Leonardo da Vinci [SEP] Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci (] ; 15 April 14522 May 1519), more commonly Leonardo da Vinci or simply Leonardo, was an Italian Renaissance polymath whose areas of interest included invention, painting, sculpting, architecture, science, music, mathematics, engineering, literature, anatomy, geology, astronomy, botany, writing, history, and cartography.  He has been variously called the father of palaeontology, ichnology, and architecture, and is widely considered one of the greatest painters of all time.  Sometimes credited with the inventions of the parachute, helicopter and tank, he epitomised the Renaissance humanist ideal.
