‘Algorhyme’ Set to Music at MIT’s Lincoln Lab

Radia Perlman, the inventor of the Spanning Tree algorithm, summarized it in a poem titled "Algorhyme," (adapted from the poem "Trees" by Joyce Kilmer).

Here, Perlman accompanies on the piano at MIT’s Lincoln Laboratory while her daughter, Dawn (voice), puts the poem to music.
