Matthew Cook

Matthew Cook is the man who proved that the Rule 110 cellular automaton is Turing-complete, and presented this proof at a Santa Fe Institute[?] conference. However, Stephen Wolfram suppressed its publication with a court order. (Wolfram was the first to study this rule, and had concluded that it could not be Turing-complete.) Then Wolfram gave a general overview of the proof in A New Kind of Science.
