About this listen
Before modern computers, before even the first punch card machines, one man dared to imagine a world where machines could think. In this episode of Memoirs of the Mundane, we dive into the astonishing story of Charles Babbage and Ada Lovelace—the forgotten visionaries who sketched out the blueprint for the digital age… in the 1800s. Why did their mechanical computer never come to life? What if it had? And how did their ideas resurface over a century later to shape the technology we can’t live without today? Join us as we uncover the almost-lost origins of modern computing.
