Pixels with Particles: when generative art meets Quantum Computing
This proposal is in multiple languages, click here to see it in Italian
Generative art has been mixing computers and art since 60s. In this talk, we will discover how a rising technology such as quantum computing could be applied to generate art and we will “play” with random numbers.
Randomness is one of the pillars of generative art, used to produce original artistic content. Quantum computing is extremely interesting because it promises to achieve “true randomness”, only simulated in classical computation. Trying to reproduce works of Vera Molnar, a pioneer in generative art, we will write Quantum Computing circuits to better understand how to generate random numbers.
