Podcast appearances and mentions of simon benjamin

In this episode Platemark, I talk with Leslie Diuguid, owner and founder of Do-Good Press in Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn. Leslie shares her journey as a screenprinter and discusses the intricacies of screenprinting, including processes, challenges, and the nuances of halftone and moiré patterns. We talk about how much math comes into the enterprise, especially about the relationship of mesh counts of screens and the frequency modulation of dot patterns. We explore Leslie's deep connection with her community, her unique approach to remembering names by sketching neighborhood visitors, and her experiences moving from a bedroom workshop to a storefront space. Leslie also details various projects, such as printing on glass, working with unique materials, and producing one-off prints in collaboration with artists like Selena Kimball and Rose Salane. We touch on the importance of sharing knowledge, community engagement, and the future of printmaking. This enriching conversation highlights Leslie's passion for her craft and her innovative contributions to the printmaking world. https://du-goodpress.com/ IG @dugoodpress IG @little_mouse_diuguid Article in Bomb Magazine about Selena Kimball: https://bombmagazine.org/articles/2023/09/20/selena-kimball-interviewed/ Leslie's Omaha show: https://www.u-ca.org/exhibition/meet-me-at-the-fence-ok-bye Nyssa Chow information: https://www.tellinghistories.com/trace Du-Good Press published Simon Benjamin's Crown and Anchor, which was acquired by the Perez Art Museum: https://www.instagram.com/p/DDNPhswRslT/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA%3D%3D Platemark website Sign-up for Platemark emails Leave a 5-star review Support the show Get your Platemark merch Check out Platemark on Instagram Join our Platemark group on Facebook Leslie Diuguid priming canvas with open mesh at Du-Good Press, Brooklyn, NY.

In this week's podcast we reach into our archive for a favourite story we first heard back in 2010! The quantum world is usually associated with the weirder end of physics, including strange phenomena like superposition or quantum entanglement, the "spooky action at a distance" as Einstein called it. But it turns out that quantum mechanical processes occur in living systems too. Some species of birds use quantum mechanics to navigate and studying how they do it might actually help us with building quantum computers. Back in 2010 we spoke to the physicists Simon Benjamin and Erik Gauger at the conference Quantum Physics and the Nature of Reality at the University of Oxford to find out more. For more information you can read our ridiculously short introduction to some basic quantum mechanics, and the accompanying article for this podcast.

Simon Benjamin is a Professor of Quantum Technologies at Oxford. He is also the Principle Investigator for Oxford’s project on Quantum Optimisation and Machine Learning.This episode is more technical than last week’s episode with John Preskill. We start by covering some fundamentals then go into different approaches for constructing and scaling a quantum computer.Read the transcript here.The YC podcast is hosted by Craig Cannon.

Today I am pleased to have Prof. Simon Benjamin from the Networked Quantum Information Technology hub (NQIT) at the university of Oxford. We chat about what makes scalable quantum computers scalable and what are some of the challenges moving forward in achieving large scale quantum computing.

Let's face it. Indie music has come to mean music that is acoustic based and conveys a sense of longing and introspection. The term almost has nothing to do with the fact that the music is coming form a band that isn't signed to a major label. The subtlety of this sound is even used to push goods and services such as PANERA BREAD, SABRA and UNIVERSITY OF PHOENIX. Yes, "indie music" has gone the way of "alternative rock" in terms of not meaning anything anymore, so when a duo like THE SHRIMPS is described as such, it does the duo and their music a massive disservice. This isn't introspective music. It's extroverted music! THE SHRIMPS are comprised of the brothers BENAJAMIN, and their musicality is proudly displayed on their new EP ABSTRACTS AND KEYWORDS. MARCUS and SIMON BENJAMIN take their queue from that other English songwriting partnership of LENNON and McCARTNEY and deliver songs that run deliver on melody, hook and that punchy lyric that proves to be elusive amongst the greater "indie rock" crowd. If you were ot hear these blokes in coffee shop. you'd put to your i-phone, stop your conversation with so and so and really give these guys a listen, and in the era of social media, that is really fucking doing something. CHECK OUT THE PODCAST AT:http://www.rockwired.com/temporarysite/rockwiredprofiles703.mp3

A distinguished group came together in February 2012 in Oxford's Rhodes House to publicly debate 'The Scientific Evolution: Open Science and the Future of Publishing'. The diverse panel included publishers, funders, academics and entrepreneurs: Tim Gowers the Fields Medal winning mathematician, Victor Henning the co-founder and CEO of Mendeley, Robert Kiley from The Welcome Trust, Alison Mitchell from Nature Publishing Group, Cameron Neylon the open science activist and blogger, Lord Robert Winston the advocate of public engagement, and Alicia Wise from the publisher Elsevier. The event was organised by Victoria Watson and Simon Benjamin, and Simon also chaired it.

Dr Simon Benjamin, a researcher at Oxford University, discusses his work in quantum computing.
