Ada Lovelace Day

March 24th, 2009

Ada Lovelace was arguably the worlds first programmer, she theorised computers would be used for Mathematics/Science and Music before they were invented. Whislt working on “Obsolete?”  I found this quite inspirational, because at The National Museum of Computers in Bletchley Park we have Scientists and Mathematicians and I was the one fortunate enough to bring the music to the equation.

I mention this idea in both of my video interviews for BBC here and ZDNet.co.uk.

She was an amazing woman.
