Goethe-Institut, Wednesday 7th December
Have you ever wondered what exactly a quantum computer is and what impact they may have on society?
On 7 December 2022, artists, physicists and philosophers will come together in the Goethe-Institut Irland, to shine a light on the current landscape of quantum computing and to explore the future of quantum technologies and the arts. Join us in 37 Merrion Square this December for an evening of exploratory conversations with experts from around the world.
John Goold (Trinity College Dublin) and Alison Fernandes (Trinity College Dublin) will examine the basics of quantum computing, through the lenses of physics and philosophy.
Harun Siljak (CONNECT) and Emma Garnett (alias Fehdah) (Musician and astro physics graduate) will discuss ‘quantum uniqueness’ in the arts and explore how and why artists might develop work with this new technology.
Ann O’Dea (Silcon Republic & Future Now) will speak to Florian Carle (Yale Quantum Institute) about what kind of art is currently being made with quantum technologies around the world and learn about artistic projects that have stemmed from Yale Quantum Institute’s artist-in-residence programme.
The conversations will be followed by a performance from Fehdah and a reception in the Goethe-Institut Irland.
