Tech Odyssey - The History of Computing in 4 Minutes

Показать описание
The history of computers is the history of our modern world. The story of all the engineers, innovators, inventors and creative visionaries who made it happen is inspirational.

Although we recognise that computers have radically changed the daily landscape of our lives; this fact is becoming less obvious to a generation fully immersed in digital technology who are more often than not passive users.

Tech Odyssey aims to show how computers have revolutionised the way we live and work; how they have touched practically every aspect of our lives and changed things forever. It provides an historical context to help everyone understand the origins of computer programming and its purpose. We hope this video will enhance knowledge and galvanise the programmers and tech wizards of tomorrow.

Come explore the history of computing at the Centre for Computing History in Cambridge. UK

Special thanks to Raspberry Pi and ARM for sponsoring the project.

Beautiful - reminds me of Public Service Broadcasting. In fact the History of Computing would be a great subject for their next album!

A little flash of Michael Sugar was cool :D
This video was awesome! A sub from me :)
And now I have to plan a trip down to Cambridge to see the machines in person!

One thin missing from that video, the Christmas 2015 issue of Mag Pi maazine with a Raspberry Pi Zero given away for free on the front cover!

I know it's probably a personal thing, but it means a lot to me that we'd gone from covertapes to coverdisks to coverdiscs to a covercomputer far more powerful than the computers of my youth that the coverdisks were for.
