Ada Lovelace Day--'Ada Lovelace [1815-1852] was the first computer programmer.... But more than that, Lovelace foresaw the role that computers could play not just in science but also in art.... In this, she was truly visionary, though the importance of her groundbreaking work wasn’t recognized until 100 years later, when Alan Turing discovered it and quoted her in his seminal paper, Computing Machinery and Intelligence.'

Margaret Macdonald Mackintosh was a member of the Glasgow School (aka the Glasgow Style), 'a circle of influential artists and designers that began to coalesce in Glasgow, Scotland in the 1870s, and flourished from the 1890s to around 1910.... Glasgow experienced an economic boom at the end of the 19th century, resulting in an increase in distinctive contributions to the Art Nouveau movement, particularly in the fields of architecture, interior design, and painting.'
