Watch the roundtable below: What’s fascinating about the roundtable isn’t so much the reverence for Jobs, but they way these artists and writers see in Jobs’ talent something of themselves. They describe him in painterly terms; it’s no accident that when looking for a similar visionary, Leonardo da Vinci’s name comes up, as do Thomas Edison and Alexander Graham Bell. It’s a fascinating moment, not just because of the person of Jobs, but because these people are aware of the myth-making process as they proceed to make a myth themselves. Update: An earlier version of this post claimed that actor playing John Sculley was John Hurt, when it is instead Jeff Daniels.
