How A Gay Love Story Led To The Invention Of The Computer. How an adolescent gay love story changed the shape of the digital future: â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦. The idea that led to the invention of the computer, an idea that Alan Turing put forward in his 1936 paper âComputable Numbersâ, did not start with a mathematical puzzle. It started with a love story, and a gay love story at that. Alan Turing became friends with Christopher Morcom in1928. Morcom was, in many ways, Turingâs first real peer. He was, like Turing, a mathematician and a scientist.
