Benoit Solès
Turingov stroj (La Machine de Turing)
Inspirirano dramom „Breaking the Code“ Hugha Whitemorea
Temeljeno na: “Alan Turing: The Enigma” by Andrew Hudges
O PREDSTAVI
Zapisi o Alanu Mathisonu Turingu, njegovom matematički sjajnom umu i povijesnim činjenicama oko njegova života su prije svega iznenađujući i zanimljivi. Mnogo je teoretskih spekulacija o njegovom istraživanju te utjecaju koje je imalo i još uvijek ima na razvoj umjetne inteligencije. Mnogi tekstovi govore o Turingovu radu koji je bio ključan za rješavanje Enigme tijekom Drugog svjetskog rata, o znanstvenim istraživanjima na Sveučilištu u Manchesteru, o Christopheru Morcomu, njegovom više nego dobrom i prerano preminulom prijatelju te o njegovoj vlastitoj tragičnoj sudbini. U tadašnjem neprijateljski nastrojenom društvu, bio je primoran podvrgnuti se kemijskoj kastraciji koja mu je prouzročila fizičke i mentalne promjene te ograničenje brzine, vještine, humora, predanosti i usredotočenosti. Međutim, priču o Turingu možemo razumjeti i na drugačiji način, kroz oči nevjerojatna čovjeka koji je svojim uvijek mladim i zaigranim umom prekoračio granice svog vremena. On nije gledao na ljudski mozak samo kao znanstvenik, već kao čovjek koji shvaća širinu ljudskog duha i uma. U percepciji svijeta bio je brži i neobičniji od svih drugih te je stvorio svijet prilagođen samo njemu. Oni koji su uspjeli ući u taj svijet morali su igrati po njegovim pravilima i prihvatiti ga, čak i ako ga nisu u potpunosti razumjeli. Oni koji to nisu uspjeli, na kraju su ga uništili. Ovo je priča o čovjeku koji je trčao maraton sa svojim strojem te o znanstveniku koji je postavio temelje suvremenog računalstva. Istovremeno ovo je predstava o čovjeku koji je postavio ogledalo društvu, kako se pogreške jednom učinjene ne bi više ponovile.

O AUTORU
Benoit Solès je glumac i dramaturg, a diplomirao je na Classe Supérieure d’Art Dramatique de Paris. Njegov debi bili su mjuzikli Rogera Loureta okrunjeni nagradom Molière: La Java des Mémoires i Les Années Twist. Nastupio je u brojnim televizijskim serijama (Julie Lescaut, Profilage, RIS, Alice Nevers, Boulevard du Palais, itd.) te filmovima (Le Juste, La Pompadour, Louis XV le soleil noir, Le Chasseur, L’Affaire Salengro). Surađivao je s brojnim redateljima: André Téchiné (La fille du RER), Vijay Singh (One Dollar Curry), Michel Blanc (Embrassez qui vous rire), Ramesh Aravind (Butterfly) i Éva Ionesco (Une Jeunesse dorée). Njegova predstava La Machine de Turing je premijerno izvedena na Festival d’Avignonu 2018. nakon čega ulazi u repertoar kazališta Théâtre Michel u Parizu. Predstava ostvaruje francusku i internacionalnu turneju do svibnja 2020. kada se ponovno prikazuje na Festival d’Avignonu 2020.

ENG.
Inspired by Hugh Whitemore’s play: BREAKING THE CODE
Based on ALAN TURING – THE ENIGMA by Andrew Hodges
ABOUT THE PLAY
Records of Alan Mathison Turing, of his mathematical-ingenious brain, and of the historical facts that are formed around him are surprising, interesting, and full of theoretical speculation about the impact that research into athletically built genius has had and still has on the development of artificial intelligence. We can read about his research work, which was crucial to solving the Enigma (a German electric message encryption device used during World War II), about his scientific work at the University of Manchester, about his more than just friend Christopher Morcom, who died prematurely as a result of raw milk poisoning and about his tragic fate. He was forced to choose between ways to deprive him of his precious freedom in the midst of then-hostile society. He was succumbed to chemical castration, which led him to physical and mental modifications, to the impossibility of physical and mental speed, versatility, humor, dedication, and daring focus. But we can understand his story or read it differently, through the eyes of an amazing man who, with his eternally young and playful mind, selflessly skipped the time in which he was born. He saw the human brain not only as a scientist but as a man aware of the breadth of the human spirit and mind. In the perception of the world, he was faster and so unusual to the eyes of every individual in the society of the time that he tailored the world he shared by the personification of his machine in his own way as the only tolerable reality. There, everything was his and otherwise allowed because it was meaningful and understandable only to him. Whoever entered it had to play by its rules, recognize and accept it, even if not fully understand it. Those who failed, however, eventually executed Turing. “It’s a story about a man running.” wrote author Benoit Solès. The first performance in Slovene gives space to a man who ran a marathon with his machine and indispensable friendly minds, a scientist who outlined the foundations of modern computer science and at the same time unknowingly placed a mirror in a society that hopefully will not repeat its impatient and hostile mistakes.
