Quantum Witchcraft: Feminist Theory and the Ghosts of the Quantum Realm

Tanja Traxler, Martin Reinhart, Julia Grillmayr
This discussion conjures the strange, ghostly presences of quantum physics—entangled particles, vacuum fluctuations, and nonlocal influences—through a feminist lens. Drawing on the work of physicists and philosophers Karen Barad, it examines how concepts like intra-action, diffraction, and material-discursivity can unsettle dominant scientific ontologies.

Speakers:
