This is a procedurally generated image using a real quantum computer. The quantum computer being used is called ibmq_cambridge. The code to generate the image takes a text string, in this case "Cambridge", and converts each letter to a quantum circuit which is then run on the quantum system and returns data that can be styled as a histogram. Juxtaposing each letter's histogram next to each other creates an image reminiscence of a city skyline, which is what is shown in the above image.

This image was created with Qiskit for the quantum code, Unity for creating the 3D image, and Photoshop for creating the final composition.

Quantum Cities collection image

Many quantum computers are named after cities. The output from a quantum computer can be represented as a histogram, which as luck would have it looks kind of like a city skyline. This series uses a quantum algorithm to representation each letter of the city's name as a row of "buildings", which is then run on the quantum computer of the same name.
