dehteraew - "Return"

[ApotheosisAZ]

I just noticed this is a response vid on the main page.

Return

I normally don't post anything about vids unless I understand them, but this one has me intrigued. The music is very cool, and many of the visuals seem almost professional to me.

There is a code in the tag.

Code: Select all

the name is 'we are the d' backwards.

the first video, tracking, has this code as a tag:
41 6e 64 20 66 6f 72 20 61 20 6d 69 6e 75 74 65 20 74 68 65 72 65 2c 20 49 20 6c 6f 73 74 20 6d 79 73 65 6c 66 2c 20 49 20 6c 6f 73 74 20 6d 79 73 65 6c 66 0d 0a

at 1:25 a street sign that says barstow is shown. a code appears at the bottm. it reads: EDUVWSZ (not sure on the S)

at 1:39 there is another series of letters:
ILML VXFNHG

looks like (judging by the text) this video is searching for tachyon.

SECOND VIDEO:

opens with a map of the world and a line between fiji and california. the comp has a watcher symbol.
text appears saying: Day 10

weird tag: TGVuZCBtZSB5b3VyIGVhcnMgYW5kIEknbGwgc2luZyB5b3UgYSBzb25nLA0K QW5kIEknbGwgdHJ5IG5vdCB0byBzaW5nIG91dCBvZiBrZXku

interesting text says: lets get the band back together.

Names are listed: Pete, Julie, Linc

text under ingram street sign flashes: hell no

[ApotheosisAZ]

I just took a screenshot with my trusty yet crapulous Windows Paint Program.

[romanceismusic]

oooo screen shot is MUCH better than my text description. lol. i would screen shot. but i'm lazy.

[gogo]

Pete, Julie and Linc are the names of the Mod Squad. They were young hip crimefighters from a 1968 tv show...

[milowent]

that 1st video "tracker" lifts its opening audio from lordgreystoke422.

i smell canon powder everywhere here.

EDIT TO ADD: link to both videos: http://one.revver.com/account/show/dehteraew

I saw the tracker /return vids to the right side of the screen on the lonelygirl15.com page and they look like another ARG.
The tags are all LG and Tachyon related including Gemma.

They are uploaded by dehteraew if that means anything.

Has anyone determined if this is the next ARG portion of the series?

7:15am Pacific Time...and there ain't no reachin' Revver...

I get this error message:

"Our servers are a little stressed out right now.

We're working on it..! Thanks for your patience."

Guess I'll try again later... Harrumph, says I! <rueful grin>

[mwgraves]

and the "let's get the band back together." line is from the original Blues Brothers...lol

And for a minute there, I lost myself, I lost myself

The "EDUVWSZ" is obvious to me. Showing directly under "Barstow", the video maker is supplying you with the key. Note that BA and RST are consecutive letters in the alphabet, and so are ED and UVW. This is a simple cypher, but they wanted to make sure nobody missed it. Thus "ILML VXFNHG" translates to "Fiji sucked". Reminds me of my own codes: very simple, hiding in plain sight, and decoding into nothing of importance.

Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song,
And I'll try not to sing out of key.

Aound 1:26 in "Return", there is a brief flash of

Code: Select all

E2 + m2c4 - p2c2

with all the numbers as superscripts, suggesting a mathematical formula, although I don't know what, partially because it's so hard to read if I even got it right. At 1:42, something else flashes in the upper-left corner which is completely illegible.

[chershaytoute]

Got it...so very NICE...

I don't decode...pathetic self that I am... But oh, good imagery, and I did love the references to back-then things (sorta cuz I just happen to be a back-then thing myself! )

[Renegade]

Can be anagrammed to "We Are Deth" - maybe the dyslexic part of the Order?

Then again, backwards, it's directly "We Are Thed", so maybe it's just interesting what/who "Thed" is...

There are some hunting refferences as well.

There are tons of messages in the two videos.

I'm a mere mortal when it comes to decoding and I know very little about US geography but they do seem to be pointing at a location.

I am at least sure if If it isn't THE ARG then it is an ARG of some sort.

Thought I would let you guys know anyway.

I don't ussually venture in here but I noticed it wasn't posted yet.

Hope it is of some use.

Thed is a tag for video 7.

Maybe....

We are the D.. a in... The D in APHID...
