SCREENING OF "THE BIT PLAYER"

To Hamilton Section Members,

We are sharing information about an upcoming event about the man who first used the term "bit" for binary digit.


You are invited to a screening of "The Bit Player" - a documentary about Claude Shannon the creator of the "Shannon Theory".  You will learn more about or get a refresher on the impact Claude Elmwood Shannon made on the world today.

The trailer for this 90-minute video is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E3OldEtfBrE&authuser=0.

This documentary was made in 2018 and brought to you by the IEEE Foundation who partially funded this along with the IEEE Information Theory Society.

There will be time after for discussion if you wish to participate.
