The Q Word – all you need to know of quantum art, but were afraid to ask.

Astryd Park

Artists will explain and demonstrate how they use quantum concepts, quantum simulation packages, and real quantum computers to explore new worlds of imagination and intellect.

To quote ‘The Economist’, Quantum technology is “shedding [its] reputation for being for ever just around the corner… For investors and some customers, the future is here.”

Come along and decide if this is the future for your art practice as well.

Astryd Park began creating artistic applications with quantum computing in 2020 while working at IBM Korea.

Received the Community Award for Quantum Orchestra, an interactive Jupyter Notebook that generates quartet music from custom-designed quantum circuits. MSc in Creative Computing at the UAL Creative Computing Institute, Showcased work Reality is Not What it Seems at London Tech Week - the UK’s largest tech event. The project uses a custom quantum 2D image encoding algorithm (QPIXL) to distort live video recordings, challenging perceptions of digital reality.

Currently based in London, working as a Quantum Application Engineer at MOTH Quantum. Before relocating, Astryd contributed to neuroscience and materials science industries in South Korea, developing flexible nanoscale neural probes and biosensors for major universities and hospitals.
