Qasem Waleed, a 28-year-old physicist from Gaza, is using quantum mechanics to describe his experience of the ongoing violence. He shares videos and writings, illustrating the chaos through this famously complex scientific field. This approach has helped him survive and viscerally understand quantum concepts. Through conversations, Waleed explains how the counter-intuitive nature of quantum mechanics resonates with his reality. He finds connections between the uncertainty and superposition in quantum physics and his own life. The text highlights his unique perspective on the devastating events in Gaza. It emphasizes how science can offer a framework for coping with extreme circumstances. The article is part of a larger production by Radiolab. It includes citations for relevant videos and articles written by Waleed. The piece also provides information on how to support Radiolab and connect with the show.
