TQW took a flight! We went on an aeroplane to Lisbon, to deliver a workshop to quantum scientists on optical levitation and doing science outreach, at a training school on Quantum Technologies for Space. It was fun! TQW didn’t get travel sick.
Rise of the Quantum Machines!
Quantum James has written an article about when quantum machines will take over the world!
Read it in Physics World, January 2016.
Article in the Guardian
Quantum James writes an article for the Guardian, about doing quantum physics with living things:
A living thing in two places at once? This quantum quandary test is limited
Institute of Physics talk
James will be talking at the Institute of Physics in Bristol on the 10th March. TQW is of course coming with.
The Cat is Alive /// Dead
Had a whole heap of fun talking with the Royal College of Art’s Space Program about the visualization of Quantum Physics. OBVIOUSLY WHAT YOU NEED IS A COOL GREEN LASER IN A BOX.
Festival of Physics
The Quantum Workshop will be appearing at the Institute of Physics Festival of Physics on Saturday 22nd November. We will be giving a talk and appearing as an exhibition. Come say hi!
Royal Institution quantum theory lectures
James has just started his second year of giving public quantum physics lectures at the Royal Institution. Head over to the media page to see the videos!
Alchemist Cafe talk in Dublin
James is talking at the Alchemist Cafe in Dublin on Tuesday 23rd July, full details here:

TQW’s pub talk advertised in The New Statesman!
We made it into a national publication, hooray!
Tonight, 12th September, we’ll be talking in The Lamb pub on Lamb’s Conduit Street in London from 7pm, we will have our glowing laser box. We will mention quantum humans. Many thanks for Science London, the London branch of the British Science Association for hosting us.
Things that are sending us mad with excitement
It’s all going MAD in the Quantum Workshop. On the 29th August we will be doing a sci-fi themed Science Museum Lates. This event is one of the things that inspired us to set this whole project up in the first place. It should be an amazing evening. And then on 2nd September we will be trying out a completely unique public engagement experiment: setting up our glowing laser box in Spitalfields Market on a busy market day, and bugging the predicted 30,000 passers by. It’s going to be mad. Please come along to both. More info on the Events Page.
