Description

How would simulated 3D parallel earths look like using novel quantum computing methodologies?

My proposed exploration will demonstrate the tension between classical computing and quantum  computational possibilities of proposed QPU-based  graphics just like a quantum computer theoretically can and possibly will.

Description

Classical elements of nature (earth, air, water and fire) aren’t sentient. But what if they were? How would they see themselves during an ecological disaster?

These animations were built using scientific imagery from NASA and Hydra, a live coding tool.

My framework of thinking and creating cites the works of anthropologist Eduardo Kohn (“How Forests Think”), philosopher Michel Serres (“Biogée”) and researchers Pia Spangenberger, Sonja Maria Geiger & Sarah-Christin Freytag (“Becoming nature: effects of embodying a tree in immersive virtual reality on nature relatedness”).
