“Do you speak quantum?” A quantum physics and art exhibition

Educating to the “Culture” of Quantum Technologies: A Survey Study on Concepts for Public Awareness

“…To this end, increasing efforts are going into the public communication, or outreach, of QT worldwide (e.g Italian Quantum Weeks, 2022;World Quantum Day, 2022). Innovative means of bringing quantum physics and technologies out of the lab to public audiences, such as through experimental demonstrations (Gow et al, 2018;2022;Posner et al, 2018), artistic expressions (Hutchinson, et al, 2015;Decaroli & Malinowski, 2022), games and interactive tools (Wootton, 2017;Cantwell, 2019;Ahmed, 2021;Seskir et al, 2022b;Migdał et al, 2022;La Cour et al, 2022;Piispanen et al, 2022), and other novel methods (Goorney et al, 2022) have been developed as QT are becoming more and more realised.…”

“…Speaking the Quantum "Language": The Discipline-Culture Approach One particularly interesting aspect of QT is its mystifying "culture", particularly with respect to the Quantum Physics which underlies it. Educators have considered this implicitly many times, referring to the unique "language" of quantum physics (Decaroli and Malinowski, 2022;Bouchée et al, 2022). One may consider that as a discipline, quantum physics has its own narrative, including a historical development (Weissman et al, 2018) and numerous interpretations (Cabello, 2017), which separates it from most other fields.…”
