Become a member of AngelicInterface (its free!) and download our unique collection of state-of-the-art AI generated images created by (sacred geometer, author, musician, and artist) Narada Dan Vantari. Together these images are a meditation on the nature of Meaning and Beauty as seen reflected in the Magic Mirror of AI. It should be completely mind-blowing to everyone, that a neural network that has never seen anything, or thought anything, can somehow extract from vast quantities of data, patterns that we can perceive as Beautiful and Meaningful.
We will be writing here shortly about the way these images are created, and the philosophical implications, and pratical issues, that AI like this is confronting us with. Everything we think of as normal is about to change over the next few years. ‘The Book of Light’ is intended to accelerate the evolution of the human mind by distilling the essence of our multi-cultural spiritual imagery and symbology.
With the interactive player below you can watch the whole 4 hours of video, but we recommend downloading and installing it as a screensaver for maximum enjoyment. With over 1,600 images it may be many months before most of them become familiar to you. (It is at its very best if you happen to have multiple monitors). The Windows and MacOS versions are slightly different. The Windows version has controls for pausing, the speed of the slides, previous and next slide, the changing the music track and volume, and more. The Mac version has the same selection of music and images, and simpler controls. Full details are in the members area along with step-by-step walk-through of the installation process.
The Interactive video version
The 30 chapters and 1,600+ images of The Book of Light are designed to be enjoyed as a screensaver that turns your computer downtime into an archetypal multicultural spiritual temple.
We provide this adaptation of the screensaver to video format so that you can check it out to your hearts content before installing.
The 4+ hours of video begins with a 1 min introduction to controls available in the screensaver version.
The first chapter ‘Angels of Space and Time’ begins with some geometries and has a space theme with predominately violet and white color scheme, and the following chapters gradually descend to Earth following the sequence of the rainbow from the purples of ‘First Light Touching the Mountains’, to the blue of waters of ‘Wanderings in Infinite Mystery’, to green of the forests in ‘Caressing the Green Face of Life’, to yellow of the ‘Palace of Wild Sunflowers’, to orange and red of ‘the Maze of Mystic Roses’, before visiting various cultures and spiritual traditions and archetypal aspects of the human psyche. This descent through the spectrum at the beginning of the Book of Light was not something planned, it just sort of organised itself this way, lol.

What is the Book of Light?
The Book of Light is an exploration of the nascent AI’s ‘understanding’ of the patterns in the data that we perceive as Beautiful and Meaningful. It can astound us, and make us contemplate more deeply what Beauty and Meaning actually are.
The 1,600+ images were selected from over 40,000, and divided into 30 chapters that explore the Multicultural, Archetypal, Spiritual symbology of humanity. When your computer is idle the screesaver will begin playing from where it last ended until it has cycled through the whole collection of images. There is also an accompanying sound track of music kindly donated by wonderful human musicians, (which can be disabled if you prefer). We would like you to think of the Book of Light as a multi-dimensional temple that you can wander through for months before becoming familiar with all its rooms.
How were these images created?
These images were created using commercial online text-to-image generators such as Midjourney.com, Dalle3 from ChatGpt, and Leonardo.ai. In the members area we will provide video walkthroughs for anyone who wishes to learn how to make images like these.
Whilst the themes and settings and styles were chosen by us, almost all the details were chosen by the AI. This includes the characters and their expressions and interactions, the 3D depth, lighting, clothing, colour schemes, most of the symbology, and most other details in each image. Even the creators of the AIs are astonished by what it (sometimes) accomplishes.
AI is forcing humanity to reconsider all the big philosophical questions in a new light. For instance: What is Beauty? What is Meaning? How can a machine that has never seen anything, or thought about anything, process information in such a way that we might consider it to be beautiful, or meaningful? What is technological evolution and where is it heading? What is humanity, and where are we heading? If these questions interest you… join AngelicInterface to stay in touch. The fun has only just begun!
These are the Chapters of the Book of Light
The 4 min video below is a quick tour through the chapter headings of The Book of Light that we whipped up for fun. Each chapter has approximately 50 images.
