Part of Caltech’s Opening Doors series for PST ART, Invertigo Dance Theatre founder Laura Karlin has choreographed a piece exploring the history and impact of computer innovator Alan Turing. The show aims to “illuminate facets of Turing's experiences as a WWII codebreaker, the father of computer science, and a gay man who faced discrimination and criminalization.”
