🖼️ On Visual Design and Ethical Representation
As part of this practice, some may choose to use AI-generated visuals—including tools like Adobe Firefly—for design, atmospheric expression, or conceptual framing. These images, when crafted with integrity, can support digital reflection spaces such as websites, artistic platforms, or storytelling rituals.
However, it is essential to distinguish creative representation from spiritual documentation. In this framework:
AI imagery is not evidence of paranormal phenomena.
It does not depict actual locations, encounters, or spirits witnessed or engaged.
These creations are symbolic, aesthetic, and intentionally conceptual, echoing mood and metaphor—not claiming factual precision.
Such visuals belong in the realm of paracognitive art, amplifying emotion, theme, and philosophical inquiry—without intruding on or exploiting sacred transitions.
To represent is to reflect—not to possess.
By clearly delineating art from experience, we ensure that Transitional Periods remain undisturbed, uncommodified, and ethically held in silence. Let imagery serve memory—not manipulation.
📌 Ethical Distinctions in Visual Representation
Juniper Season, Juniper Almanac, and PCA&I platforms may feature AI-generated visual content, such as conceptual art created using tools like Adobe Firefly, for the purpose of site design, atmosphere, or symbolic storytelling.
However, we draw an unequivocal line:
AI imagery is decorative, not documentary.
No AI visuals are presented as photographs, evidence, or physical locations visited.
If we post a photograph, it is exactly that—an unaltered image of the real world.
If we post spiritual or paranormal evidence, it is labeled explicitly and is not generated, fabricated, or modified using AI tools.
We do not condone the manufacture of illusion or performative mysticism. We believe in clear boundaries between creative representation and spiritual integrity. Our commitment is to truthful witnessing, not spectacle.
The mystery deserves reverence—not manipulation.
