Alan turing

His ideas led to early versions of modern computing and helped win World War II. Yet he died as a criminal for his homosexuality.

Alan Turing, mathematician and computer scientist, with profound contributions in computing and cryptography, faced tragic circumstances.

I can imagine many possible ways of turning Alan Turing’s story into a movie. Yes, one can imagine the obstacles—among them the sheer eventfulness of the man’s life, and the fact that many of his most dramatic discoveries were predicated on knowledge of sophisticated mathematics (that well-known bane of the moviemaker). Yet none of this should serve as an excuse. The choice seems clear: either you embrace the richness of Turing as a character and trust the audience to follow you there, or…

Harvard’s Collection of Historical Scientific Instruments celebrates the 100th birthday of Alan Turing, whose ideas theorized the first computers, spurred the science of artificial intelligence, and — oh yes — helped save the Allies during World War II.
