A Magnificent Man and his Enigma Machine - Simon Singh demystifies the methods of the codecrackers

Event information

The smash hit of last year’s AWWW returns with his precious, real life original Enigma Machine, training a teeny camera on it so you can see the inner workings, and unveiling its mathematical mysteries. Come and be transfixed by tales from the remarkable science of cryptography, and how it has changed the course of history. Singh is not only an outstanding cryptologist, but is a wonderfully entertaining speaker, making it possible for us ordinary folk to understand devilishly complicated ciphers, and bringing to dramatic, compelling life the story of Alan Turing and his colleagues at Bletchley Park.
