'''Silimatic''' technologies use glass made from different types of sand to produce differing effects. Silimatic glassesglass can be used by anyone, but lenses can only be used by [[Oculator]]s. [[Alcatraz Smedry]] has drawn parallels between Silimatic technologies and [[Smedry Talent]]s in the past. He has also been able to increase the power of various Silimatic technologies.
 
== Silimatic Sand ==
All types of Silimatic technology are made originally out of sand.
 
;Bright SandBrightsand: Bright SandBrightsand is one of the most common types of sand. It lets off a glow that causes other types of sand, or glass, to do strange things. Bright sandBrightsand powers most silimatic technology.
 
;Dullsand: Dullsand is one of the only types of sand that don't do anything. The librarians have gone to great lengths to cover beaches in it to make sand seem common and boring, and thus of little value. It is possible that non-Silimatic glass is made of dullsand.
 
== Silimatic Glass ==
Types of glass include the following:
 
; {{anchor|AlivenersAlivener's Glass}}Alivener's Glass: Also known as [[Glass of Alivening]], Alivener's Glass can create [[Alivened]] by storing part of a Dark Oculator's humanity, making the Dark Oculator less humane in the process.

; {{anchor|Defender's Glass}}Defender's Glass: Defender's Glass protects structures that are inside it. It is extremely strong.

== Oculators Powering Silimatic Technology ==
;Unknown: A type of glass used to warn of librarian illusions in the penguinator's cockpit.
During his time in [[Nalhalla]], Alcatraz discovers that Oculators can power Silimatic technology without brightsand.{{book ref|a3|14}} The amount of brightsand required to power it, though, correlates to how much of the Oculator's power is used.
