Title:
- Conceptual Superposition. The Aesthetics Of Quantum Simulation
Presenter(s)/Author(s):
Abstract:
I examine the conceptual and aesthetic implications of quantum simulation by reading Richard Feynman’s lecture “Simulating Physics with Computers” with Theodor Adorno’s aesthetic theory; I argue that the very notion of quantum simulation is in a state of conceptual superposition – which is, at its core, an aesthetic principle.
