Human technology is a branch in the giant bifurcation (tree) of creation, bifurcation being a pattern of morphogenesis and let’s be fair, emerging from plant and animal evolutionary technology. Escher’s famous drawing illustrates how creation emanates from the hands, and the “strange loop” as Douglas Hofstadter put it in GEB, between creator and creation. “DrawingContinue reading “Technology + Philosophy: Self-Creation & Recursion”

Tech Essay: Quantum Technologies For Aerospace
The realization of quantum computing and technologies calls for breakthrough innovations both ideological and pragmatic. The areas of science contributing include but are not limited to Quantum Physics, Computer Science, Materials Science, Engineering and Chemistry. The development of quantum technologies requires a multidisciplinary approach, and then interdisciplinary collaboration. Every day there is new research andContinue reading “Tech Essay: Quantum Technologies For Aerospace”
Tech Essay: Studying Quantum Biological Processes To Improve Quantum Technologies
There are two reference sources for this article: The MIT xPRO Quantum Computing Fundamentals program & the textbook “Quantum Effects In Biology.” Upon first consideration, Quantum Computing and Quantum Biology seem to be very different fields, utilizing the principles of quantum mechanics in different ways. Quantum computing involves using quantum bits or qubits to performContinue reading “Tech Essay: Studying Quantum Biological Processes To Improve Quantum Technologies”
Tech Essay: A Global Quantum Overview
*This is one of my responses from the MIT Quantum Computing 1 course* As I read about global quantum initiatives, it strikes me that every network advance is a step towards further international interconnectedness, defense agendas aside. I know that’s a big aside. The somewhat ‘mysterious’ nature of quantum physics and mechanics makes us haveContinue reading “Tech Essay: A Global Quantum Overview”
Tech + Physics: The Quantum Internet
First of all, what is a quantum internet or network? In contrast to classical computing, a quantum network uses quantum particle behaviors like superposition and teleportation to communicate large amounts of data faster than the speed of light between locations, with less hardware. Quantum networks will have the most immediate effect on any sector requiringContinue reading “Tech + Physics: The Quantum Internet”
