This is it now, this is what life is all about now, looking at screens, I’ve just accepted it, my friend Jordi told me, while we each look at our monitors, comparing our screen time. He unabashedly told me his phone screen time is 4 hours a day, which is a lot, I think, but a quick google search shows it is just about average. And this statistic excludes computer screen time, which potentially fills the rest of our waking life. But really, it’s true, many of us spend our lives and build our skills and subsequently identities behind screens.

Mit dem ersten Nachweis von Quasiteilchen – sogenannten Exzitonen – in einem topologischen Isolator ist einem internationalen Wissenschaftsteam rund um das Würzburg-Dresdner Exzellenzcluster ct.qmat ein Durchbruch in der Quantenforschung gelungen. Diese Entdeckung schafft die Grundlage für eine neue Generation von lichtgesteuerten Computerchips und Quantentechnologien. Möglich wurde dies durch geschicktes Materialdesign aus Würzburg – dem Geburtsort topologischer Isolatoren. Die Forschungsergebnisse wurden in der Zeitschrift Nature Communications veröffentlicht.

Long hailed as a democratic tool, the internet is now a tool for private economic interests. This forum brings together researchers, artists, policymakers, labor leaders, and technologists at the forefront of efforts to construct a democratic internet.
