Image 1 - Alan Turing

‍Hi everyone, my name is Alan and my absolute favourite subjects in the world are mathematics, systematics and logic. I grew up in England during the Second World War and much of my knowledge came to great use as I was employed by our government to decipher coded messages sent from our enemies, something I found really cool! My knowledge of digital theory and sequence allowed me to develop the first general-purpose computer which became the founding technology of the computers you use all today.

AI Image 2 - Wright Brothers

‍Orville, that’s me! When my brother Wilbur and I were little boys, our father would often travel to faraway lands as part of his work, and one particular time, he brought back something that came to shape the rest of our lives. It was a strange-looking thing and it took us a little time to get used to, but, when we tossed it up in the air, thinking it would drop to the ground, it flew!! We were both so amazed, we played with it all the time that we could spare and spent the rest of our lives trying to figure out how to become airborne ourselves just like our beloved toy.

AI Image 3 - Albert Einstein

Hi there, I’m Albert Einstein. Although I didn’t speak a word until I was two years old, a lot of interesting things were happening in my mind! I was born in Germany in 1879 and when I was four years of age, my father gave me a wonderful present, a magnetic compass which I found extremely interesting and fascinating! I was so excited to learn how it worked, it enticed me to study science and math and the rest is history…

AI Image 4 - Carl von Linnaeus

Hi kids! My name is Carl von Linnaeus and I was born in Sweden a very long time ago. When I was young, my parents wished for me to become a priest but I wasn’t very interested, as I was intrigued by the beautiful nature around me, so I studied flora and fauna instead. I found this very interesting and during my lifetime, I travelled across the entire globe and gave almost every flower and plant the name that they are called today.

AI Image 5 - Frida Khalo

Hola! My name is Frida and I was born in a small city in a country called Mexico in 1907. When I was a little girl, I had a disease called Polio which sadly made my legs not work as well as they should, so I spent a lot of time lying in my bed thinking, imagining and innovating pictures in my head. This is how I started painting using all the strong lively colours that I love so much and, as I was most often alone, I got a mirror and painted myself in the pictures!

AI Image 6 - Greta Thunberg

Hello, I’m Greta and I live in Stockholm, the capital of Sweden. The future of our planet lies in our hands and I think that we should be careful with it. Even though you’re a child and people might not want to listen, you can help make great changes and that’s what I decided to do when I started my campaign against climate change. When I was just eight years old, I became aware of the damage we were causing to our planet and I decided to start asking both the people and governments around the world to change their destructive ways.

AI Image 7 - Hypatia

Hi there! My name is Hypatia and I lived a very long time ago.  When I was a little girl, I would often look out of my window up to the dark Egyptian night sky and wonder about all the beautiful stars I could see, so, so far away. Although it was very unusual for a girl or a woman to gain an education, my father trained me in many interesting subjects and I dedicated my life to studying astronomy, philosophy and math, and I became a teacher in all of those subjects too!

AI Image 8 - Isaac Newton

Hi! My name is Isaac Newton and I love education. I suppose that most of you would prefer to stay home instead of studying, but for me, it was the opposite! I hated tending to our family farm so I did everything I possibly could to be allowed to continue going to school and thankfully my mother was kind and let me go. I loved learning about science from a very young age and I was especially intrigued by the effect of gravity which I put in a lot of time and effort to understand. Today, you mightn’t be able to look at an apple without thinking of me!

AI Image 9 - Jane Goodall

Hi there, Jane is my name and I love all things nature and I feel most at home in the animal kingdom. It might not surprise you that, when I was a child, my favorite book was Tarzan, King of the Jungle! As I sat silently reading the book in my little room in England where I am from, vivid and colourful images of worlds far away were created in my imagination and a deep respect for nature and animals was born within me. Since then, I have made it my mission to travel across the entire world, seeking opportunities to help protect our fascinating wildlife and natural habitats.

AI Image 10 - von Gutenberg

I have been sued, I have been chased by both the police and the church and I have been made bankrupt, but, living in my lifetime was not that easy! My name is Johannes von Gutenberg and I was born in 1395 in central Germany. During my lifetime I had many jobs both good and bad ones, but my most important work was inventing the mobile printing press, which allowed people to copy and produce books and documents at a faster speed than writing everything by hand, which was very important for the development of education. You mightn’t think so, and wish that I hadn’t, especially when your teacher wants to give you homework! I’m sorry about that!

AI Image 11 - Mary Jackson

Hi kids, I’m Mary Jackson and I was born in Hampton, Virginia in the United States over a hundred years ago! Ever since I was a little girl, I was fascinated by the magic of mathematics and the complicated powers of engineering. So much so that when I was 37 years of age, I became the very first African-American woman to work at the super exciting National Aeronautics and Space Administration! Can you imagine, people even called me the Human Computer!

AI Image 12 - Steve Jobs

Hi everyone! My name is Steve and my journey towards developing Apple computer technology began the day I met my colleague Steve Wozniak in 1971 when we were both still studying in high school. We quickly became best friends as we shared a great interest in the new and very exciting phenomena of digital development, entrepreneurism and computers. Together, we designed many of the cool technologies that let you use phones and computers in the way you do today.

AI Image 13 - Theodore Mainan

Hi everyone! Hi there! I’m Theodore Maiman and I was born in America in 1927. Can you believe it, I began working with my father in the really cool laboratories of Alexander Bell when I was only 12 years old!¬ I was SO fascinated by the powers of electricity and was given a job fixing valve devices, which I really enjoyed as it taught me so much. Once I had finished my education at the university, I began my quest to invent Laser, using ruby and silver components, which is used all over the world in so many fields of science and technology.

AI Image 14 - William Shakespeare

Having tried acting in the big city of London, I soon realized that there was much more money in writing the plays, than taking part in them, so I did! My name is William Shakespeare, I was born in 1564 in England and I love to write! In my lifetime, I created sad and gorey tragedies, romantic dramas and funny comedies and, you may have heard of some of my most famous characters “Hamlet” and “Romeo and Julia”? I loved putting on a show and, once the fireworks that I used for special effects set fire to the theatre roof…..oops!
