What do you guys make of this? It's posted by "Addison Willis" on Everything You Do is a Balloon right below HellInterface's post ... I think this is legitimate ... "Davie Addison" is one of the Old Tunes, right?


This definitely looks like one of their temporary accounts.


I think if it was an account they had set up it would not have the other random likes:

It's actually hosted by this guy: http://www.youtube.com/user/three15two?feature=watch
Three15two ... this looks like the others.


Yeah the video might be real - its well done. I just meant I didn't think the Addison Willis account was set up for this.

Discog section is still there for me, but was there always an extra slot beside Trans Canada Highway?

699742 sort of throws out the sequence of decrementing numbers and also the repeated digits are in a different place. Will be intrigued to see where this gets placed in the code.

Based off of an apparent abundance of "snow" mentions during the NPR thing (and snow being in the second slot under AtalantaFugiens) I've added 699742 to the second slot. If evidence comes out showing that it belongs somewhere else be sure to post and I'll edit as soon as possible

i tried to see if the code numbers that we have so far in any way corresponded with the numbers heard in the song "aquarius", but i didnt notice anything.

So I still don't know exactly why we confirm it as being #2. The whole "snow" theory has made sense, though, and it has been true so far.

FWIW I've uploaded the snippet from NPR for reference:

As well as the one from BBC Radio1

I'd rather have copies of this stuff for the longer run ;)

To add to the snow thing, someone on watmm posted this:

6+9+9+7+4+2 = 37 => 3+7 = 10

7+1+7+2+2+8 = 27 => 2+7 = 9

9+3+6+5+5+7 = 35 => 3+5 = 8

------

5+1+9+2+2+5 = 24 => 2+4 = 6

So -/10/9/8/-/6



From top to bottom, slot 2, slot 3, slot 4, slot 5 (still blank), and slot 6. That's pretty compelling.

And I mean, obviously you can infer this, but slot 1's numbers should add up to two numbers that add to 11 ... and slot 5 should add to make 7.

you're missing the last step.... 1+0 = 1 so: Hogwash in my opinion

You may be right ... you may be wrong ... either way, I'm glad that you said "Hogwash"

Could've called it "kicking off pants", but bid on being lame, instead ;)

Thanks for the maaaany updates! Really helps to keep up with all that's happening while some of us are at work! :)

so i havent really been racking my brain over this stuff because it would probably drive me crazy but im really enjoying watching it unfold

is there a general consensus on what the sequence(s) are going to add up to? a release date? album title? perhaps another red moon party?
