This is really cool looking, how did you make the animation?
Thanks. We used blender cycles to sculpt the atom. Our goal is to visualize the math of electromagnetism and imagine how such invisible action at a distance can occur.

That is definitively not how electricity work in a wire. The electrons are moving inside the conductors. (There are some technical details, for example an electron in a crystal has a different effective mass than an isolated electron, but they are moving anyway, not rotating.)
> The reason that magnetic action extends beyond the current-carrying wire’s apparent surface is that while 99.999% of the electron exists within 430 pm of the nucleus, there is a small chance of finding that surface extended to incredible distances. In fact, under Quantum Mechanics, the radial distribution function for the electron has no limit on reach.
> We imagine the physical extensions of the atomic surface are responsible for the action-at-a-distance. Lateral magnetic motion of conductive rotating e-shells thus synergizes between current-aligned wires, pulling them together as shown in Figure 2 below (panels A and B).
This effect decays exponentially. A few nanometers away the wave function and probability density is completely negligible, and so is the effect of the orbital shape. On the other hand, the effect of magnetism of a wire decays like 1/r and can easily be measure a few cm away (or more if the magnet is strong enough). So this part of the explanation is wrong.
