WOST (Without SpaceTime) is an interdisciplinary initiative exploring quantum gravity foundations and spacetime emergence. We bring together theorists, experimentalists, and philosophers investigating how space and time emerge from quantum information structures. Our research challenges conventional spacetime notions, examining how gravitational physics and quantum mechanics reconcile through approaches that go "without spacetime" as fundamental. Our work spans quantum foundations, quantum gravity, experimental proposals, and philosophical implications. Supported by the John Templeton Foundation and partner institutions, coordinated by the Center for Space, Time and the Quantum. This channel features seminars, lectures, and workshops from our community. Note: Formerly the QISS (Quantum Information Structure of Spacetime) channel, now the official WOST channel.
