Alan Turing Centenary

Not surprisingly,  a ‘Google Doodle‘ has been created to celebrate the occasion:

The CWI (Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica) in Amsterdam has unveiled a Turing Machine built from LEGO:

Interviews with the designers are also available (unfortunately not really a ‘making of’ video, since they do not reveal much about their methods):
