Radio Gallery: Duluth Quantum Computing Project

Kathy McTavish

Duluth composer and media artist Kathy McTavish has partnered with the Duluth Art Institute to offer an "eight-week experience" free and open to the public called Duluth Quantum Computing Project: Storytelling in a Digital Age.

This is a community learning experience about Internet-based art; from coding to digital creations and the conversation and creativity that is born of modern technology.  Workshops are three times a week, Thursday through Saturday in August and September, and you might consider taking this journey of discovery if you are a digital artist, software engineer, computer programmer, graphic artist, writer or other creative or techie type.   

The workshops are being help in a Duluth storefront, at 3 W Superior Street on Thursdays 6-9pm, Fridays 12-1pm and Saturdays 3-6 with additional open lab and discussion time adjacent. You may attend the whole series or select workshops.
