This podcast tells the extraordinary story of a scientific breakthrough that was once dismissed as a "grand fantasy." It's a journey into the mind of a 19-year-old Nigerian student who, after his first encounter with a supercomputer in 1974, embarked on a 15-year quest to revolutionize the world of computing.

Join us as we uncover the story of how this young mathematician and programmer dared to challenge the conventional wisdom of his time. He envisioned a world where thousands of processors could work in unison, a concept that many believed was impossible. This podcast chronicles his perseverance in the face of skepticism and the intellectual hurdles he overcame to turn his vision into a reality.

Listeners will be taken on a deep dive into the world of massively parallel processing and the invention of the first hypercube computer. Discover how this groundbreaking architecture, which allows thousands of processors to communicate simultaneously, laid the foundation for modern AI supercomputers. The podcast will explore the intricate connection between this invention and the complex mathematical problems it was designed to solve, such as those found in computational fluid dynamics.
