Thumbnail for my video, showing a collage of pictures of: a toy dinosaur with a red floppy disk in its mouth, a VIC-20 READY prompt with the cursor changed to a heart, a TAC-2 joystick, a Sega Mega Drive, an Atari 1040 STFM, a PlayStation leaning against a tree, an Amiga 500 with a "classic edition" badge, a classic Commodore 64 bread bin. There's a cut in half picture of myself making an astounded face on the right hand side. The overlayed big text reads "TEN".

Ada Lovelace wrote this poetic observation of computing in her 1843 paper on the Analytical Machine.

Famously, this paper has the first computer program, calculating Bernoulli numbers, making her the first programmer. Additionally, the Analytical Machine was the first Turing-complete computer. Although she is credited on this paper as merely the translator from the French paper, she added extensive commentary doubling its length, in which the quote and program originate.

“We may say most aptly, that the Analytical Engine weaves algebraical patterns just as the Jacquard-loom weaves flowers and leaves.” Ada Augusta, Countess of Lovelace. “Sketch of the Analytical Engine invented by Charles Babbage Esq.”, “Notes by the Translator”. Note A, page 696. 1843. The image in this post is my construction, excerpting and aligning a sentence from page 696 of the University of Oklahoma scan and her initials on page 701.
