We’ve just concluded the workshop “Entangled Visions: Exploring Quantum Visualizations in Culture, Dissemination, and the Arts,” which we consider the zenith of QH activity this year. As parts of the workshop, we had an exhibition and two (actually, 2.5, since one of the invited speakers, Krystyna Gnatenko, played violin and piano during her presentation) concerts.
Rather than writing a brief report, we’ll simply let our guests, invited speakers, and participants speak for themselves:
Chad Orzel: As noted earlier, I spent a week in Oslo at the start of the month in order to speak at the Entangled Visions workshop put on by the Quantum Hub at Oslo Metropolitan University. They had an exceptionally wide range of speakers, ranging from physicists and physics educators to philosophers and historians of science to artists and musicians, all talking about visualizations of quantum physics, construed extremely broadly.
Stefano Calzati: My big thanks goes to the organisers of the event – as well as to all the international participants – for setting up a truly interdisciplinary space where a highly diverse top-class group of scholars, researchers, artists, scientists, and curators could get together and generate brilliant discussions around quantum physics’ hard-to-pin down “meaning” (rigorously in quotation marks) and the effects of emerging quantum information technologies across disciplines and fields, especially the arts.
Caterina Benincasa: Enjoyed participating in the #quantum interdisciplinary conference ENTANGLED VISIONS at OsloMet – Oslo Metropolitan University last week! Met most amazing people, love exchanging on quantum and #uncertainy with Paul Thomas , #aesthetics of science with Henrik Zinkernagel , Quantum #Ecology with Stefano Calzati , fascinated by #Archetypes of Entanglement by artist/researcher Aurora del Rio, loved also the talk on Quantum #Iconoclasm by Anders Kvellestad and so many more….
Khrystyna Gnatenko: Thank you very much to the organizers for inviting me to give a talk on quantum information research, music, and quantum music at the international event “Entangled Visions: Exploring Quantum Visualizations in Culture, Dissemination, and the Arts” at the University of Oslo (Norway). Many thanks to all participants for the excellent discussions!
