The hook.

full primer โ†’

Shot list planning is laid out as a graph; a quantum walker explores it and lights up the most promising next step for videographers to take.

Why this primitiveQuantum walk is the right primitive here because shot list planning reduces to a graph exploration problem; the kernel returns a result you can drop straight into the UI.

Kernel
a discrete-time quantum walk on a small graph returning a probability distribution over nodes after t steps
Drives the UI as
an animated graph where node opacity reflects walk probability
