Open a new document in RGB mode. The size of the document is 640px wide by 480px high. Press D to set the default colors to Black and White. Click the gradient tool with the Difference mode set. Choose the foreground to background gradient. Uncheck Transparency and Dither.
Click and drag multiple times across the document until you get something similar.
Go to Filter ->Stylize, and apply Find Edges.
Go to Filter -> Distort -> Wave. I applied the following settings in the menu: Number of Generators: 5, Wavelength: Min-50 Max-400, Amplitude: Min-35 Max-90 Scale: Horiz-100% Vert-100%. Click the Randomize Button in the menu a few times.
Create a new layer and change the foreground color to a #0182fa (Medium Blue) and the background color to black. Select the gradient tool and drag downwards from top to bottom. On the gradient layer change the blending mode to color burn. In the layer menu choose flatten image.
Go to Filter -> Distort -> Pinch and apply a setting of 100% and click ok. In the Edit menu select Fade and change the blending mode to Overlay and click ok. Again go to Filter and select Distort and Pinch with a setting of 100% and click ok. In the Edit menu select Fade and change the blending mode to Multiply and click Ok.
Go to Filter -> Blur -> Radial Blur. In the menu select zoom and a 10 pixel blur.
Duplicate the layer. Select the new layer go to Edit -> Transform and Rotate 180 degrees. Change the layer blending mode to multiply. Lighten or darken the image to your liking using Levels.
Create a new layer. This is the layer that has the light rays. Draw a line in the new layer. Go to the Filter menu and select Distort and Shear and create the S shape shown in the image.
Then go to the layers styles pallete. Check Outer Glow, These are the settings I used: Color of the glow is white, the opacity is 75%, the spread: 3 and size: 10. click Ok. Use the settings that work best for your line.
Make multiple copies of the line layer. The amount depends on how many light rays you want. Go to Edit -> Transform -> Distort. Distort each of your rays so that there is a variation in each of them. I also varied the opacity of each one.
Create a new layer on top of all other layers. Select the brush tool and choose a spatter brush. Choose white as the foreground color and paint some spatters of varying sizes around the origin of the rays.
Go to Filter -> Radial Blur, the settings I used were Amount: 100, Zoom, and Good. The End
