Quantum Immersions
CQT invites writers with a particular interest in quantum physics or computer science to visit. Visiting writers will enjoy opportunities to interact with CQT researchers and see research labs. Please contact us if you would like to plan a trip to CQT. We have established the Quantum Immersions programme to support travel and accommodation costs for selected writers-in-residence. This programme will also support artists-in-residence. For pre-agreed projects undertaken over longer time periods, the visitor may be appointed a CQT Outreach Fellow.
Follow the links to read news highlights about some of our residents so far: George Musser, writer, Scientific American; Karol Jalochoswki, writer and film-maker, Polityka; Linda Sim and Dario Lombardi, artists. In 2012, CQT hosted artist Grit Ruhland through the National University of Singapore Art/Science Residency programme. Grit's project involved collaboration with researchers and artists on a quantum Cabinet of Curiosities.
