Here it is, the first ever quantum symphony, "Quantum Universe", composed by "Kazakh Mozart" Rakhat-Bi Abdyssagin, with him in Cathedral Organ, and me on Quantum Guitar.
"Quantum" in two ways: Abdyssagin's book "Quantum Mechanics and Avant-Garde Music", and my Quantum Guitar.

Next week I'll be giving a talk and a quantum guitar concert at the Einstein Forum in Potsdam, near Berlin, for their Year of Quantum celebrations. Maybe CU there, in person, or on Zoom.

We have a new paper on the arXiv that provides a widely applicable graphical language for photonically interlocking modular components for various kinds of quantum hardware.

Our first ZX-calculus paper was written in 2007 in the Alborz mountains in Iran. Let's hope that the Iranian people can get what "they" want. (RIP Hassan)

Now ongoing in Oxford. All being filmed, including the two concerts, one of which was yesterday, orchestral organ + quantum guitar. Worked out well it seems.

...not just in terms of making things accessible to the younger, but also more broadly an inclusive societal paradigm, combatting things like racial profiling and (Western-style-)learning difficulties, all of which is rooted in Aristotelian style reasoning, on which society is still very much build

My online `relatorium' aka `compassionate mathematics' talk - some interesting observations in the discussion regarding how the passage to a relational perspective as in Quantum Picturalism, or @rovelli.bsky.social, helps achieving inclusivity of any form.

Being in industrial music, quite something to have a show advertised by the Faculty of Music of the University of Oxford, which is traditionally very traditional.
Free subsidised show, come and see us.

Glad that I can brag about this paper as co-author as my contribution has been minimal. Takes ZX-calculus to a new level by connecting quantum foundations research, it's initial motivation, to condensed matter physics and (loop) quantum gravity research.
