With the news of Apple flying all over the sky, some good people began to trace Apple's past lives. The first thing that was targeted was Apple's creative LOGO. It is this "bitten" apple that has become an international brand after decades of development. Many people give Apple's LOGO a profound meaning, but there is actually no such complicated story behind it.

Apple's original trademark "Colorful Gap Apple"

Recently, some media interviewed the designer of Apple's original trademark, namely "Colorful Gap Apple". In the interview, he said apologetically that he was sorry for ruining those wonderful legends about Apple's LOGO design. Facts are far simpler than legends. The following is a summary of the interview:

Q: What's the meaning behind those colored stripes and what's the "bite"?

Apple's original logo designer Rob Janov

Rob Janov: "This colorful color doesn't have much hidden meaning. It doesn't represent the flag of gay pride, the mysterious legend about alan turing, or the dawn of the Garden of Eden in the Bible. It was bitten by the fruit of wisdom. I don't have any faith. This is just an allocation task of Logo design. However, I understand the concept of Apple Computer (innovation), which is one of the greatest stories behind Logo.

Personally, I put this colorful striped Logo in front of the monitor, but it looks a bit racist. I'm very sorry about that. Nothing special after the brand plan, but I like it. Oh, by the way, the green color on it is to match the green leaves on it.

The actual meaning of being bitten is actually so ordinary, but I am glad that there are so many interesting' coincidences'. "

In fact, there is a widely circulated legend about the origin of Apple's original trademark ―― it was bitten by alan turing, the father of computer science.

Alan turing, the father of computer science.

Alan turing is known as the father of computer science, and his famous Turing machine model laid the foundation of modern computer logic working mode. He is also a famous homosexual, who was persecuted because of his homosexual tendencies. Turing died of eating apples soaked in cyanide solution. Many people think that his death was intentional and that his death was suicide. But his mother argued that his death was an accident because he accidentally accumulated a lot of chemicals in the laboratory. Apple's logo is sometimes mistaken for half an apple bitten by Turing when he committed suicide.
