Alan Turing Audio: Part 1

Tweet

Leland Purvis and my The Imitation Game: Alan Turing Decoded comes out Tuesday, March 22, and I’m excited by that. To warm you up for it, here are two pieces of audio memoir I enjoyed. I’ll offer two more that I like even better tomorrow.

First, Geoff
Tootill talks about working with Alan Turing at Manchester in the 1940s
.
Then, hear Dai
Edwards talk about setting up the Manchester Mark 1 computer for Turing and others
.
Both of these are courtesy of the British Library’s “Voices of Science” series. As you can imagine, I relied a great deal on British sources for the research behind Turing, and am grateful that there were so many fine ones to work from.
Libraries really are the best thing since slice bread.
(Note that public libraries predate sliced bread by almost 100 years, and university libraries are even older. Yeah, I looked it up.)
