In this talk I will discuss ongoing efforts in the Simon-Schuster collaboration at Stanford that leverage arrays of optical and microwave resonators for quantum science. On the microwave side, I will describe our Bose-Hubbard circuit platform and share experimental work assembling and studying liquids and solids of photons, culminating in our demonstration of manybody Ramsey spectroscopy as a probe of chemical potential and pressure in photon fluids.
