GRAPHIC ARTISTS

Eduardo Lima, Miraphora Lima, Charis Theobald

Graphic props, other than setting the period through newspaper headlines and post-war posters, were based on real material of Turing’s work, which was the starting point to translate his thinking into a new visual form, through sketches and paperwork. In this case, less practical and mundane props are shown on the screen for their metaphorical or emotional significance, able to evoke a specific feeling or theme intended for the narrative.
