Built on the principles of quantum mechanics, QC can run algorithms that are not trivial to run on digital computers. Unprecedented new uses for this technology are bound to emerge from ongoing research.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe development of conventional digital computing technology for the arts and humanities has been progressing in tandem with the evolution of computers since the 1950s. Today, computers are absolutely essential for the arts and humanities. Therefore, future developments in QC are most likely to impact on how research in the humanities will be conducted and the way in which artists will create and perform. This integrating book delivers a diverse collection of chapters by pioneers of emerging interdisciplinary research at the crossroads of quantum computing, and the arts and humanities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eTopics \u0026amp; features: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePresents the first work dedicated to the topic of QC in the arts and humanities\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOffers accessible coverage for audiences without a strong background in quantum physics and mathematics, including humanities researchers and those involved in entertainment and the creative arts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCovers topics at the crossroads of QC, from philosophy and social sciences to games and music\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvides insights from leading scholars in the arts and humanities who are pioneering the use of QC in their fields\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis unique book assembles contributions by scholars championing research in a wide array of areas, informed by quantum computing.
