So he tries to find the truth within himself and his journey takes him to the bottom of the ocean and back again. The song 'Alone' is a summary of the story Deep Blue tells."
Deep Blue was a chess-playing computer developed by IBM. It is known for being the first piece of artificial intelligence to win both a chess game and a chess match against a reigning world champion under regular time controls.
Deep Blue won its first game against a world champion on February 10, 1996, when it defeated Garry Kasparov in game one of a six-game match. However, Kasparov won three and drew two of the following five games, defeating Deep Blue by a score of 4–2. Deep Blue was then heavily upgraded, and played Kasparov again in May 1997. Deep Blue won game six, therefore winning the six-game rematch 3½–2½ and becoming the first computer system to defeat a reigning world champion in a match under standard chess tournament time controls. Kasparov accused IBM of cheating and demanded a rematch. IBM refused and retired Deep Blue.
Development for Deep Blue began in 1985 with the ChipTest project at Carnegie Mellon University. This project eventually evolved into Deep Thought, at which point the development team was hired by IBM. The project evolved once more with the new name Deep Blue in 1989. Grandmaster Joel Benjamin was also signed on to the development team by IBM.
A village in a distand land
Calling thier name
The spirit of the jemba drum
Guiding thier way
Into thier dreams the ship set sail
Bound for far away
In the search for the shores of her bay
Cape Town
Ohhhh, cape town
Rode the liberation wave
Away from the tide
Searching for a better day
Babies trapped to thier sound
Not knowing where the ship would sail
Faith was all they had
And they finally found thier way home
To the land of love and freedom
To the place where we belong
Truth and reconciliation
Is what's going on
It's a time for celebration
The night has just begun
So dance in the light of the land
That they call cape town
MUSIC...
It's the land of love and freedom
To the place where we belong
Truth and reconciliation
It's what's going on
It's a time for celebration
The night has just begun
So dance in the light of the land of the sun
To the land of love and freedom
To the place where we belong
Truth and reconciliation
Is what's going on
It's a time for celebration
The night has just begun
So dance in the light of the land
