Books arranged left-to-right in canonical order. Chapters flow vertically; verse depth encodes position within chapter.
Books become stars in a galaxy spiral. Chapters orbit each star; verses form moon-rings with tilted orbits.
Books placed via the golden angle (φ≈137.5°) on a Fibonacci spiral. Emergence of mathematical divine proportion.
Verses wind through a double helix, encoding the divine name “I AM WHO AM” (Exodus 3:14) as an infinite spiral of scripture.
Old and New Testament form two vertical columns of a luminous cross. The z-axis encodes mass and pivotal significance.
Force-directed layout. Verses cluster by cross-reference proximity — densely connected passages pull together over 120 iterations.
WASM-computed humanoid pose. Scripture takes on the form of a standing figure — the Word made flesh.
OT and NT fan out in dual columns, books cascading top-to-bottom. Pivotal verses float forward on the z-axis.
BFS-ordered grid with barycentric median-crossing reduction. Nodes placed for the fewest possible edge crossings — the cleanest possible web of scripture.
Split-screen reading — book text on the left, 3D visualizer on the right, and all connected passages listed below with full context. Click any connection to navigate both the text and the pointcloud simultaneously.
Full Catholic canon including Deuterocanonical books (Tobit, Judith, 1–2 Maccabees, Wisdom, Sirach, Baruch). Complete verse text accessible via double-click on any node.
The humanoid Silhouette layout is computed by a compiled Rust binary (97 KB .wasm) for maximum performance and IP protection.
Custom ShaderMaterial with per-point sizing, pulse animation on selected nodes, additive-blended edges, and smooth 60-frame camera fly-to on selection.
64,497 edges connect related verses across the entire canon. Select any verse and its connections glow gold — tracing theological threads through both Testaments.
