This reading is The Leaning Light by Andrew J Manera, from the collection Quantum Shorts. Its quantum themes are the act of observation, free will, light, randomness and reality. What if, when the act of observation collapses the waveform and the version of reality is chosen, it’s actually a person flipping the switch?
