Chimpnology



The Infinite Monkey Theorem states that if you give a monkey a keyboard and an infinite amount of time, eventually he will “almost surely” produce something along the lines of a William Shakespeare masterpiece. It’s actually a mathematical model, but a funny one that sticks in our minds, What is more likely is that, if you give Cyriak Harris an infinite cumber of digital copies of a chimpanzee, he will produce an animation just like this.
