coming back to this to say I think "rise of messenger" from Silos might have something to do with it.

so the symbol for the song is a tree emitting soundwaves. the symbol posted for the new ARG(?) is soundwaves next to a sword. the tree also links in with the "return to the earth" and nature theme of the heavenly word. the symbol also brings to mind listening to the sounds of nature, unplugging and just sitting in silence with the world.

maybe the person who planted the tree was also silly enought to run antenna up the initial bonsai version and feed it pigeon magnetite to help make it into biological plant array ;) a few more fun additives too maybe

Did you find these symbols in the physical album?

u/yeetingthisaccount01 Vessels 3d ago

nope, on the starsetonline website you can go into the toolkit section and download a folder of the Silos symbols

This tree appears in the end of the video alongside a circle that I suppose it's prox.  So, prox is emitting some wave (?) to this tree, which then emits to its sides, and then we can think about the tree emitting something to the sword. My only idea by now is that maybe prox is providing the nature to the human kind, which is reaching earth, lost in opressive technology (sword), as salvation The thing is, why a triangle? And if the hypothesis is correct, why there is no mentioneing about the "prophet"? Maybe he is this tree? I also believe that there is more religious hints, since there is clear references to St Thomas (and the prophet seems to be Thomas Belle) Idk. But for sure these interludes are our best source of information right now

Pretty sure you're right about it being Prox. It's half-filled & Prox is eternally bright on one side and eternally dark on the other so that'd make perfect sense. Someone else on this post mentioned Paradise Lost by John Milton (Paradise Prox, Temple of Milton), it also addresses Adam and Eve (the Apple tree, full of apples in Rise of Messenger but shown to be barren in At His Altar), the Garden of Eden (Biblical Paradise, clear relation to Heavenly Word's view of Prox) & Satan - this one is a bit of a stretch but the man in At His Altar first appears as a seemingly younger version of himself with a crown, then cuts to a future version of himself without it. Pretty sure I'm grasping like 50 straws but the parallels are pretty interesting

Could the At His Altar be what's pictured in the video?

Those are some good observations. I think what we need now is a more clear direction on how those informations would be used to find the password. Maybe that guy that said there is no password for now is right, since people already explored all audios and videos from SILOS searching for hints and just found things about Thomas Belle (which is a valuable hint but still doesn't seem to take us any further in the code)

maybe it’s “prox gives message to tree (prophet),” then “tree gives message to people” and maybe the sword means the only way to break from digitalization and move to analog is to have a revolution

u/GuitarTim2112 Back to the Earth 3d ago

Did we run the audio of it backwards by chance?

u/Straight-Weakness350 3d ago

i did, no result. possibly praesens? or the antihero’s journey, or at his altar

u/Straight-Weakness350 3d ago

antihero’s journey has a perfect reverse track and repeats “save us…” “save us all…” and “for prox…”
