BRAINSTORMING TURING: CELEBRATING +25 YEARS OF AI AND SOCIETY JOURNAL

25 MAY 2012
CALIFORNIA NANOSYSTEMS INSTITUTE

100 years had passed since Alan Turing
was born and we celebrated this
historically important individual
together with many organizations
around the world. We aimed to show his
eccentric creativity in addition to
reminding all of the huge contributions
he made to computation and artificial
intelligence. Short talks by computer
/ neuro / nano scientists and humanists
were accompanied by artists inspired by
Turing’s legacy and persona. Students
from UCLA also participated with their
ideas on how Turing informed and
inspired their work, living in the
time when social networking, robotics
and automatic brains are part of daily
life.

2012 also marked 25 years since the
establishment of the AI & Society
journal that owes its formation to
Turing’s legacy. The Art|Sci Center
partnered with this interdisciplinary
publication to honor Turing and all
those who have contributed over the
years.
