Children of Euler - Failing the Turing Test pt. II

from Children of Euler / Terracide Split LP by Children of Euler / Terracide

/

about

In 1952 the brilliant cryptanalyst Alan Turing was forced by the British Government to choose between prison and chemical castration for the (then) crime of homosexuality. Two years later he committed suicide by eating an apple he had treated with cyanide.

lyrics

I feel their darkness pressed against me
the chemical product of their fear
thrust into my mind
the city below my window
the thrill of the dark streets
dead within my mind
I miss the feeling of life within my body
to be close to the roots of numbers
embrace the cyanide dream
the forbidden fruit of knowing
coiling around the base
the root of the algorithmic structure
that was mine
and silence and silence
and I feel nothing
