    There’s backlash against a sculpture of gay war hero Alan Turing because it would ruin the ‘character’ of his former college. Yes, reallyhttps://www.pinknews.co.uk/2020/05/01/alan-turing-sculpture-anthony-gormley-kings-college-cambridge-historic-england/ …

        "Gormley’s sculpture is intended to look over the chapel at the college and will be made up of 19 steel slabs erected to form an abstract metal figure." You should be pissed off that Turing gets such a shoddy representation - ABSTRACT - he saved the bloody country!

        At least wait until you bloody see it. Gormley is a great artist and Turing spent his life dealing with abstract concepts.

        I'm glad the college plans to install this sculpture. Don't know how good art of a genius ruins the character of a college.

        Wut? That’s ridiculous. That man was a genius, treated shittily in life, and we really need to stop treating him that way now.

        I said it once and I'll say it again, & again, & AGAIN. Not only is Alan Turing THE reason why the Nazis were defeated. He the ONLY reason why the modern computer exists at all. Without Alan Turning, anything on this planet that's been made possible by computers wouldn't exist.

        To be fair, a Gormley statue *of anyone* wouldn't be in keeping with the historic nature of the college. Why not go for a traditional statue of Turing that would fit in sympathetically with the siting rather than some modern arty bollocks that will clash horribly with it?
