Linear algebra ruined your life
Dr Gerard McCaul
(Early Career Researcher - Quantum Technology)
Discover the most powerful idea in the history of human thought: Linear Algebra!
In this talk, we’ll dive into the field of mathematics that underpins nearly everything shaping our modern world, linear algebra. From the “simple” vector operations that power everything from generative AI to the foundations of classical mechanics and quantum theory, we’ll explore how this powerful concept is at the core of both technology and physics.
We’ll take a quick historical journey through the development of dynamics, showing how these complex ideas are most naturally expressed as vectors in high-dimensional spaces. You’ll learn how the same principles that describe quantum behavior also fuel the algorithms behind Netflix recommendations, ChatGPT, and more!

A Tangled Web we Weave: Is quantum spookiness the future of communication technology?
Dr John Samson
(Retired Senior Lecturer - Quantum computing and phase space methods in quantum mechanics)
Explore one of the most fascinating and misunderstood phenomena in quantum mechanics: entanglement!
Once dismissed by Einstein as “spooky action at a distance,” entanglement allows two widely separated objects to share information in such a way that measuring one instantly reveals the state of the other. In this talk, we’ll dive into how quantum entanglement works, why it cannot be used for faster-than-light communication, and how it powers technologies like quantum key distribution, which enables ultra-secure information sharing.
If time allows, we’ll also touch on the mind-bending concepts of the no-cloning theorem and quantum teleportation, yes, that means explaining why captains vanish when beamed up to a starship!
