TELOS 129 explores the quantum revolution and its growing impact beyond theoretical physics, shaping society, technology, culture and politics. Curated by Juan Ignacio Cirac, a leading figure in quantum computing, the issue brings together prominent scientific and cultural voices to examine how quantum thinking is transforming fields from computing and biology to philosophy and artistic creation.

Published to mark TELOS’s 40th anniversary, this issue also introduces a bold new visual redesign and new formats, reinforcing TELOS as a European space for critical reflection on today’s technological frontiers. More than a monograph on quantum science, TELOS 129 invites readers to think through uncertainty as a defining feature of the contemporary world.
