This page is dedicated to materials for inspiration.

Flowing from Quantum to Cosmic: Exhibits from the 2017's Where the Arts Meet Physics can be found here.

Art Science Festival 2021 -  Schedule of Events: Event information for the series of events that took place for the Art Science Festival can be found here. There are several categories including the cosmos, high energy physics, quantum, art of life, etc. The links on this page will take you to the information page for the respective event and may be useful as inspiration for what is possible.

Creating a Bose Einstein Condensate: In this animation, Nobel laureate Eric Cornell describes the creation of a Bose-Einstein condensate.

Quantum Voyages: A theater performance of two voyagers exploring the quantum realm guided by the spirit of wisdom and accompanied by a Quantum Ensemble. Conceived and scripted in 2018 by Smitha Vishveshwara and Latrelle Bright for Sir Tony Leggett's 80th, the performance has evolved over the years.

Public Quantum Network: The worlds first publically accessible quantum network where you can verify entanglement and test a few other protocols and build an intuition about quantum physics.

Over the pandemic, it was made to morph into a virtual production. The video link can be found here. 

In 2025, as an offering for the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, it featured at the American Physical Society's Global Physics Summit and at the Krannert Center for Performing Arts. Some information can be found here.
