DESCRIPTION:ABSTRACT:\nIn this talk I will present my research and creative
  work on Music and Quantum Computing. I&rsquo\;ll include a brief personal
  and historical overview\, explaining the context of this emerging field a
 nd its community of practice. On my quest to define a Quantum-computing Ai
 ded Composition (QAC)\, I developed a toolkit for musicians and artists to
  build\, run\, and simulate quantum circuits\, that I will demonstrate liv
 e in this presentation\, along with a quick overview of how to engage with
  the Community.&nbsp\;\n&nbsp\;\nBIO:\nOCH is a performer\, composer\, and
  technologist\, working and teaching on music and quantum computing\, tele
 matics\, multimedia\, and improvisation. He earned his PhD at UC Irvine (U
 SA) with the pioneering work in Music and Quantum Computing \"Adventures i
 n Quantumland\" (quantumland.art). He also earned his MA at ESMAE-IPP (PT)
  with his research on the relations between music and painting\, and curre
 ntly he is a Marie-Curie Fellow with the project IIMPAQCT at University of
  Coimbra (PT). OCH has numerous software tools and relevant academic publi
