LEGO Turing Machine

A short documentary about the LEGO Turing Machine built at Centrum Wiskunde & Informatica (CWI), Amsterdam (Netherlands). It was built for CWI's exposition "Turings Erfenis" in honor of the centenary of Alan Turing's birth on 23 June 1912.

The Turing Machine (1936) is an adequate model of a computer. It can do anything the computers of today or tomorrow can do.
