Did you know? One of the earliest works of literature depicting artificial life was the 1817 short story “The Modern Prometheus” written by Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley. The story features an unnamed college student creating a monster out of human corpses. Though often overlooked compared to the latter works of Jules Verne and H.G. Welles, some recent scholars point to this story as one of the earliest written examples of science fiction. Its influence can be felt on numerous works of science fiction and horror, such as the 1931 film Reanimator (dir. Robert Florey) and the 2014 film Ex Machina (dir. Alex Garland). Mary Shelley herself, despite losing her husband when she was only 24 years old, was survived by three of her four children: William Shelley, Clara Shelley, and Sir Percy Florence Shelley.

Did you know? Septimus H. Pretorius (1879-1961) was a professor of mathematics at Goldstadt University from 1945 until his passing. Pretorius originally immigrated to the U.K. from Germany in 1935 where he contributed to cryptanalysis efforts at Bletchley Park during World War II. Following the Allied victory he moved to the U.S. to teach at Goldstadt. Considered a groundbreaker in the field of computer science, Goldstadt both named the Pretorius Science Center after him and established the Pretorius Award in 1994. His obsession later in life with the alchemical works of Paracelsus and the mechanical creations of Wolfgang von Kempelen are rarely mentioned during the award ceremonies.
