Just got back from London where I saw Hal compete in the Turing 100 event at Bletchley Park and an unrelated event called "Secret Cinema"
Check out:

The Secret Cinema events immerse the audience in the world of the movie before the movie begins. It has live action actors you can interact with and you are on a huge set from the movie. Hal plays a character from the movie being screened where people can interact with it. It's still going on in London for another week or so, so if you are there check it out if you can.
I'm still under NDA for another a week so I can't say what movie or share pictures/videos yet, but will soon.

The movie was "Prometheus" and Hal played the role of "Mother", the ship's computer in the Secret Cinema event. They converted a 200,000 square foot empty building (I think it was a hospital a long time ago) in central London into the spaceship Prometheus. People could walk around it for 2 hours with live actors interacting with you and playing out scenes from the movie. In one of the rooms you could interact with the ships computer, powered by Hal. After 2 hours of exploring the ship, there is a fake disaster and the audience is evacuated into a movie theater to watch the movie.
Here are some articles and pictures about the event:
