STEP INSIDE QUANTUM
Young Producers at Imperial College
Co-created with young people based in West London, Imperial College researchers, and artist Chloé Rochefort through a 6-month-long workshop programme, Step Inside Quantum is a participative textile installation showcasing of a series of large-scale Gates.
Existing at the smallest of scales, Quantum weaves the fabric of our universe. Its discovery transformed the way we understand reality. How our body functions, how nature behaves, how we invest, how we produce energy, how we travel, how we communicate. Mastering Quantum could allow research to go a step further and advance at unimaginable speeds. However, quantum works at such small scales that everything becomes blurry and uncertain. Even for experts, many aspects of quantum remain a mystery.
Bringing together diverse scientific and creative perspectives, this project is an interpretation of how Quantum manifests itself in our imagination and in our reality. Our art installation challenges you to cross the Quantum’s threshold and discover the mind-bending principles of this world interactively.
