ABOUT PROJECT

Commissioned artwork for SmartNews. The company is highly interested in making space that inspires its employees and visitors, including a potential candidate for recruitment. ALAN TURING, a legend of computer science and mathematics, and his mind are the “basso continuo” of the installation concept for this artwork. Multi-textured wooden boxes, including antique mechanical chambers, are embedded as an accent of mystique taste. The German cryptographic equipment, ENIGMA is also integrated to show the history of Alan Turing.
