Huge thanks to Grant Sanderson for a quick manim crash course - I used manim for some of the more complex animations.

Schrodinger equation numerical simulations used for animations were computed with: https://github.com/quantum-visualizations/qmsolve

Special thanks to Patrons: Juan Benet, Ross Hanson, Yan Babitski, AJ Englehardt, Alvin Khaled, Eduardo Barraza, Hitoshi Yamauchi, Jaewon Jung, Mrgoodlight, Shinichi Hayashi, Sid Sarasvati, Dominic Beaumont, Shannon Prater, Ubiquity Ventures, Matias Forti, Brian Henry, Tim Palade, Petar Vecutin, Nicolas baumann, Jason Singh, Robert Riley
