[spectre] Launching FEAT/Future Emerging Art & Technology

[Annick2]

Dear Spectrites,

Springs starts with a new project for Leonardo/Olats. We are 
thrilled to be the "Outreach Partner" of the FEAT project.

FEAT stands for Future Emerging Art & Technology. Co-funded 
by the Horizon 2020 Framework Programme of the European 
Union, it is lead by The Waag Society, Eutema and Youris.com 
and its aim is to bring together artists and FET/Future 
Emerging Technology projects.

Six artists and artist's teams have been chosen for 
residencies and paired with leading scientific research 
projects.
The six funded artists and artist's teams in residence are 
Anna Dumitriu (UK), Ruth Jarman and Joe Gerhardt 
(Semiconductor, UK) Evelina Domnitch & Dimitry Gelfand 
(Belarus/Russia), Pinar Yoldas (Turkey), Špela Petrič & Miha 
Turšič (Slovenia) and Vicky Isley & Paul Smith 
(boredomeresearch, UK).

The paired teams are :
1.  Anna Dumitriu (UK) and MRG-Grammar – new strategies for 
deciphering gene regulation [http://www.mrg-grammar.eu]
2. Ruth Jarman & Joe Gerhardt (Semiconductor, UK) and 
QuProCS – quantum simulations and quantum computing 
[http://www.quprocs.eu/]
3. Evelina Domnitch & Dimitry Gelfand (Belarus/Russia) and 
RySQ – developing quantum simulators with Rydberg atoms

4. Pinar Yoldas (Turkey) and DIACAT – novel ways of 
catalytic CO2 conversion [http://www.diacat.eu/]
5. Špela Petrič & MihaTuršič (Slovenia) and INTERTWINE & 
Mango – future high power Exascale computing systems
