Alan Turing's breakthrough machine gets a loving Lego tribute (video)

In the world of technology, having one of your inventions rendered in Lego form is the equivalent of a musician being parodied by Weird Al - it's a sign you've truly made it and tribute to your influence. So, we're more than a little surprised to see that it's taken this long for the Turing Machine to be lovingly built from plastic bricks. The heart of this simple logic device is a Lego Mindstorms NXT set, but the soul is in Alan Turing's genius - a man who was before his time and unjustly persecuted for failing to properly fit into society's molds.
