How can art help us understand quantum computing?

Play0:00-0:0034 min

What exactly is a quantum computer? Have you ever wondered what all the media hype is about or how quantum computing may impact our everyday lives? In this episode, we talk to quantum expert Emily Haworth, curator Lucy Rose Sollitt and Professor Eduardo Miranda to learn about quantum technologies and the arts.

Over the coming weeks, the Goethe-Institut will explore these questions and more under the umbrella of a new project and international events series called ‘Living in a Quantum State’. Events in London, Dublin, Beijing and San Francisco will explore the role of civil society in regulating emerging technologies and examine how the arts may help us to communicate and understand these major scientific advances. In this podcast, we are diving right into the core of this complex theme to explore the possibilities and challenges that quantum computing will bring.
