Presentations and conversation by Agustina Woodgate, experts from the DLR (The German Aerospace Center) and students from Cologne International School of Design (KISD) and Parsons The New School.
How can art and design communicate the abstract concepts of quantum computing to a larger audience? In a teaching and research project, Köln International school of Design (Cologne, Germany) and the School of Art, Media, & Technology at Parsons School of Design (NYC,USA) collaborate with the DLR Institute for AI Safety and Security (Department of Quantum AI and Quantum-classical Hybrid Systems) to develop concepts of interactive installations that help understand the weirdness of the quantum computing world. After a visit to New York in October, both schools visit Amsterdam to work at the Waag FutureLab and for one-day symposium at the Sandberg Institute of Gerrit Rietveld Academie.
Hosted by Anja Groten and Márk Redele, the event at Sandberg Institute will feature an introduction to the collaboration by Nina Juric, Michie Pagulayan, Lasse Scherffig, and Sven Travis. This is followed by a keynote lecture by Agustina Woodgate, who will introduce her art and research projects on quantum communication. From DLR, Andrew Barlow will introduce his research group’s work on quantum computing and quantum AI. In addition, students of the project will present their work-in-progress prototypes and discuss them with faculty and graduate students of Sandberg Institute.
Hosted by Sandberg Design Department and Materiality Research Group Limited spots available. Please RSVP: design@sandberg.nl
