SUMMARY:Entangled States: A Life According to Quantum Physics
DESCRIPTION:RSVP TO THIS EVENT \nJoin us for a discussion with debut author Karmela Padavic-Callaghan and Sevan Rasmussen about Entangled States: A Life According to Quantum Physics. \nPadavic-Callaghan is a science writer currently on staff writer at New Scientist where they report on physics\, materials science\, and quantum technology.  Each chapter examines a moment in Karmela’s life through the lens of a physics concept. Knot theory becomes a lens for the story of Karmela visiting a Croatian healer. Ultracold atom labs lead to a meditation on societal expectations that women be unfailingly warm and nurturing. And the workings of an electron microscope become a framework for Karmela’s evolving relationship with cosmetics as they realized they are nonbinary. \nPadavic-Callaghan writes conversationally about seeing themselves in Freddie Mercury’s queer masculinity and power\, what it means to be a queer teacher to young people\, and overall how  “Queerness\, as I have come to understand it\, is always future-oriented\, always a state of becoming.”
