  • Biographies of Computer Scientists
    1 Charles Babbage 26 December 1791 (London, UK) – 18 October 1871 (London, UK) Life and Times Charles Babbage was born into a wealthy family, and started his mathematics education very early. By . 1811, when he went to Trinity College, Cambridge, he found that he knew more mathematics then his professors. He moved to Peterhouse, Cambridge from where he graduated in 1814. However, rather than come second to his friend Herschel in the final examinations, Babbage decided not to compete for an honors degree. In 1815 he co-founded the Analytical Society dedicated to studying continental reforms of Newton's formulation of “The Calculus”. He was one of the founders of the Astronomical Society in 1820. In 1821 Babbage started work on his Difference Engine designed to accurately compile tables. Babbage received government funding to construct an actual machine, but they stopped the funding in 1832 when it became clear that its construction was running well over-budget George Schuetz completed a machine based on the design of the Difference Engine in 1854. On completing the design of the Difference Engine, Babbage started work on the Analytical Engine capable of more general symbolic manipulations. The design of the Analytical Engine was complete in 1856, but a complete machine would not be constructed for over a century. Babbage's interests were wide. It is claimed that he invented cow-catchers for railway engines, the uniform postal rate, a means of recognizing lighthouses. He was also interested in locks and ciphers. He was politically active and wrote many treatises. One of the more famous proposed the banning of street musicians.

It can follow analysis; but it has no power of anticipating any analytical relations or truths. — Ada Lovelace, Note G 6 On her genius and insight If you are as fastidious about the acts of your friendship as you are about those of your pen, I much fear I shall equally lose your friendship and your Notes.

  • Lovelace & Babbage and the Creation of the 1843 'Notes'
    Lovelace & Babbage and the Creation of the 1843 ‘Notes’ John Fuegi and Jo Francis Flare/MITH Augusta Ada Lovelace worked with Charles Babbage to create a description of Babbage’s unbuilt invention, the Analytical Engine, a highly advanced mechanical calculator often considered a forerunner of the electronic calculating computers of the 20th century. Ada Lovelace’s “Notes,” describing the Analytical Engine, published in Taylor’s Scientific Memoirs in 1843, contained a ground-breaking description of the possibilities of programming the machine to go beyond number-crunching to “computing” in the wider sense in which we understand the term today. This article expands on research first presented by the authors in their documentary film, To Dream Tomorrow. What shall we do to get rid of Mr. Babbage and known to have crossed the intellectual thresh- his calculating Machine?

    Editorial issue 8 2 In this issue we welcome aboard Ian Horton on the editorial team. Ian is Contextual and Theoretical Studies Coordinator for the Design School at London College of Communication, University of the Arts London. He has a broad range of experience with comics research that focuses on two main areas, issues of national identity in British comic books and informational/educational comics. In collaboration with Lydia Wysocki and John Swogger in 2014 he was a founder member of the Applied Comics Network which focuses on making and using applied comics - bringing comics and information together. He has recently published work on multiculturalism and stereotypes in British comics, the relationship between art history and Comics Studies and is currently working on a book chapter titled ‘Info-Comics, Science (Fiction) and Public Engagement’. In his academic life outside of Comics Studies he has just completed a book titled Hard Werken: One for All – Graphic Art and Design 1979-1994 about the Dutch graphic design group Hard Werken to be published by Valiz in Summer 2017. Ian will be working on some of the forthcoming special issues and in some of the general articles. In this issue general issue the themes of the articles overlap in issues of comics production, readership and aesthetics. In “De/facing race: towards a model for a universal World Comics,” Jeeshan Gazi recounts the attempts by Kodansha, the largest publisher of manga in Japan, to create ‘World Comics’ – ‘a comics style that would be universal, the style of the twenty-first century understood by all readers’ by recruiting foreign artists.
