简介：Ada Lovelace was a most unlikely computer pioneer. In this film, Dr Hannah Fry tells the story of Ada*s remarkable life. Born in the early 19th century Ada was a countess of the realm, a scandalous socialite and an *enchantress of numbers*. The film is an enthralling tale of how a life infused with brilliance, but blighted by illness and gambling addiction, helped give rise to the modern era of computing.Hannah traces Ada*s unlikely union with the father of computers, Charles Babbage. Babbage designed the world*s first steam-powered computers - most famously the **ytical engine - but it was Ada who realised the full potential of these new machines. During her own lifetime Ada was most famous for being the daughter of romantic poet Lord Byron (*mad, bad and dangerous to know*). It was only with the a*ent of modern computing that Ada*s understanding of their flexibility and power (that they could be far more than mere number crunchers) was recognised as truly visionary. Hannah explores how Ada*s unique inheritance - poetic imagination and rational logic - made her the ideal prophet of the digital age.This moving, intelligent and beautiful film makes you realise we nearly had a Victorian computer revolution.
