Stories, software and sound · independent studio
Sound you can see.
Home of Sparks of Ora’Kai, an epic sci-fantasy series — and of the software built alongside it: Gnosis, a science academy that teaches understanding rather than recall; CLAP audio plugins that reshape sound in the frequency domain; and a shelf of small desktop utilities. All by JM Roque da Silva.

Aura Quest — real tasks become XP.
Aura Quest turns the real work you already want to finish into XP for a glowing spirit that grows with you.

It’s a productivity app that rewards showing up, gently, on the fast days and the slow ones.

- Focus runs, four unlockable themes, and glowing aura effects
- An optional AI companion that runs fully offline — nothing leaves your PC

Gnosis — understanding beats memorising.
Gnosis is a science academy that teaches the relationship before the result, so a forgotten fact can be rebuilt from something still understood. Eight courses, from counting to university material — including three that teach Dutch to someone who has just arrived in the Netherlands.
- The Basic Dutch speed course and all of Mathematics are free permanently
- Two further Dutch courses are open free while Gnosis is in preview
- Dutch read aloud in a human voice — the vowels a speech model cannot say
- Runs fully offline: no account, no server, nothing leaves the device
Free permanently — Basic Dutch and Mathematics, in the browser or installed, with no account. Two more Dutch courses are open while Gnosis is in preview.

Little apps, built beside the books.
Sparks of Ora’Kai needs tools of its own — somewhere to read a draft, somewhere to keep a thought, somewhere to lay out a feed. They were useful enough to keep, so they are here. Each one activates with the same Spectral Colors account.

Sparks Markdown
Markdown, worth reading.

- Syntax colour for around forty languages, and a copy button on every block
- Reloads when the file changes, so it can sit open beside your editor
- No network, no telemetry, and no account inside the app

Spectral Colors first · SPC RogueFX
The audio plugin with a roguelike inside.
Nine spectral effect engines, six LFOs — and a real dungeon crawler running in the same window. Every step, shot, kill and pickup is a modulation source, so playing the game is automating the sound.

Under the hood
A living signal chain.
Every Spectral Colors effect reshapes sound in the frequency domain — colour, chaos, and modulation, flowing end to end.
- 1
It starts with your sound
Drop a Spectral Colors CLAP audio plugin onto any track in FL Studio, Bitwig, Reaper or any modern DAW. Drums, vocals, synths, or a whole mix — whatever you feed it becomes the raw material.
- 2
We look inside the frequencies
A fast Fourier transform (FFT) splits your audio into every individual frequency. Working in this frequency domain is exactly what lets a spectral plugin reshape sound in ways a normal EQ or distortion simply can’t.
- 3
Then we add colour
Harmonic colouring and dynamic resonance paint character onto each band — warmth, shimmer, grit. This is the “colour” at the heart of every Spectral Colors effect, tuned per frequency band.
- 4
Rogue modulation brings it alive
Tempo-synced LFOs, granular chaos and playful modulation keep the sound moving. In SpectralRogueFX, a built-in arcade game even drives the modulation as you play — sound design that feels like an instrument.
- 5
Out comes something new
The result is a fresh, expressive sound you won’t get anywhere else — glitch-free and mix-ready. Get the plugins and hear it on your own tracks.
