Abstract
Quantum physics is uniquely equipped as a science to abridge the gap between the physical and the spiritual, the human and the animal. How this abridgment may come about will be shown in an examination of the basic concepts of quantum physics, highlighting entropy; of Søren Kierkegaard’s philosophy, notably the work Repetition; a selection of modern literary works; illustrations of quantum mechanics provided by links to impressionist and abstract painting; a sound track and video emulating thunder, and a discussion of music.
