As historical adviser, Christopher worked with the company to make sure Turing’s ideas were represented accurately. But the collaboration worked both ways: exploring Turing’s work brought both surprises and moments of confirmation, while seeing mathematics interpreted through performance offered new insight into how complex ideas can be communicated.
