My name is Narada Vantari. Welcome to my homepage with links to my various other sites.
I am a graphic artist, musician, and flash web animator, based in the Byron Bay region of NSW Australia.
I am sometimes available for projects, large or small, flash or html, especially if they are inspiring.

I particularly like working with musicians, artists, or other creative individuals to make something beautiful and uniquely theirs.
Flash is capable of doing almost anything one can imagine with interactive web graphics. You will find many of my projects linked from here.

I believe that the computer as an instrument for playing with animated geometries, colour, sound, and symbols, can be the medium for a new and powerful spiritual artform that will accelerate the urgently needed evolution of the human being. You can check out my most recent work 'the Universal Yoga Mandala' poster and website here.
I am also working on a major long-term project of my own using Macromedia Flash to make an interactive book of stories poetry imagery etc, that will also be a windows desktop and screensaver.

 

 

Sacred Geometry:

You will find that much of my work is symmetrical and designed in proportion to the computer screen itself, which very few people seem to realize is usually in the ratio of the Pythagorean rectangle, i.e. 3 x 4 with a diagonal of 5 units.
The ratio of 3 to 4 to 5 is also the ratio of the frequencies of the three notes in a major chord, and the foundation of western musical theory for 2500 years or more!

Lately I have become interested in the golden mean ratio, fivefold symetry, the dodecahedron, and the structure of the DNA. More on this here

Flash Stuff
IMPORTANT: to view these movies you must have the free flashplayer6 or 7 or 8 installed for your browser. If you see the an animated bird whirlpool below and not just an empty white box then you are all systems go! (Try holding the left mouse button down and moving inside the movie box for some different effects)



If you don't see it you either have an earlier version of flashplayer, no flashplayer, or its not installed properly for your browser.
In which case, click here to safely and painlessly download and install for free the latest version. (its the most popular and neccessary plugin, and comes pre-installed with the latest browsers)

The best example of my web work to date is the intro movie to the Ambaji site. It's a meditation on the Goddess in her many forms, cosmic, planetary, human, symbolic. Ambaji is a name for the Goddess of creation in her gentler form, and also a wellness centre in Byron Bay.
There is a version with music for broadband but its waiting for me to set it up again properly :-(


P.S. The movie will play very slowly on anything less than say a PII 600,
especially if you have your screen resolution set to more than 800 x 600.
It is a meditation, so speed is not critical anyway :-)
Shrinking your browser window will probably speed it up if it is too slow.


Please check out some more of my work below.
Most of it is still in developement :-)

 

The BirdTribes site dedicated to the use of the web as a spiritual art form for facilitating planetary awakening - birdtribes.net (this one is a long term project and very much under construction, at the moment only three pages or so are active, but each has its own flash animation at the top of the page)

 

 

The Yogaverse Mandala Poster.
My most recent major project, in conjuntion with a yogi friend. IMHO the best sacred geometry yoga poster on the planet!
The intro page is groovy but dont miss the sacred geometry page as well.

 

A recent co-creation for the Zeropoint theatrical extravaganza to tour Europe -zeropointnow.com

This intro movie for the Breath Connection site is a different style from usual.
It was created and set up from scratch in about 24 hours.
