The Imitation Game (2014)
Movie is for all the people who loves mystery, mathematics, and true events
The Imitation Game is a historical drama based on the life of the genius British mathematician Alan Turing who played an important role as crypto analyst in deciphering the Enigma machine- an encryption device used by the Nazis during WW2 to transmit code messages. Historians estimate that breaking Enigma shortened the war by more than two years, saving over 14 million lives. Turing's work inspired generations of research into what scientists called "Turing Machines". Today, we call them computers. Unfortunately Alan Turing was never acknowledged enough and for 50 years his work was kept secret. A must watch movie.
The Bit Player (2018)
An homage to Claude Shannon
So few people have heard of Claude Shannon, and his impact is bigger than all of the household names. He sought a "universal theory of communication" for the accurate and efficient transmission of information. The documentary succeeds in explaining concepts simply and clearly. The film also links Shannon's interests in Information and communication to his early interests in codes. Commissioned by the IEEE Society, The Bit Player is the perfect title for this informative film portraying the "father of information theory".
