Build & design

Concept diagrams and hero art are hand-authored or procedurally generated as SVG, so the site ships no third-party image assets beyond the credited portraits. The site is built with Astro, runs as static files with no server, and works offline once loaded.

The glass prism on the home page is adapted from the v-prism effect by ObsidianUI (MIT licence), itself after Vercel's prism, with Alan Zucconi's spectral rainbow. Lumen, the guide, is drawn for this site. The one-minute videos are animated and narrated for this site, with voices made in ElevenLabs.

Type is set in Timeless Serif and Timeless Sans, free typefaces by Timeless Ventures, Chennai. If you want them for your own work, get them fromtimeless.co.
