To illustrate quantum wave function phase progression, the objects depicted above appear to progress through a series of color shades. With a liberal dose of artistic license, this represents the quantum action of a stone traveling at three different speeds, and of a photon traveling at the speed of light. The left side of each image represents the object in three-dimensional space, with the x and y axes respectively running horizontally and vertically. The right side represents the object in spacetime, with the x-axis running horizontally and time running vertically. The horizontal line through each image represents the x-axis.
