Before Steve Jobs, Bill Gates and even Pac-man, there was Alan Turing, hailed as the father of computer science.
To remember the man who has contributed so much to artificial intelligence, the Hong Kong Computer Society has organized the 2012 Alan Turing Centenary Commemoration Mini-Exhibition.
The show will include videos of Turing's famous trilogy of lectures, interviews with members of the Hong Kong Computer Society, and songs paying tribute to Turing. There are also artworks by local artists inspired by his genius and articles written by established Hong Kong writers about Turing's impact upon our lives today.
The exhibition runs till June 30 at the Hong Kong Arts Center.
