Mkaos asked if any of us had left our dreams on the bseeingu answering machine. As this is the second reference to doing so coming from an ingame character, I called and left a message. It went something like this:

Quote:

Hi there, this is Carmen Miranda from near London in the UK. I feel a little silly doing this, but I've had another dream and I was wondering if you could help me with it. I've left you a message before.

I'm dreaming that there's someone at the door--I don't know who. I just know that I need to hide, but nowhere is safe. I keep hearing screams, and they sound like they're coming from outside, so I run out the back door.

There are people everywhere, and they seem scared. I see an old woman on a bench--I don't know who she is, but I feel like she's important. I don't know where I'm supposed to go. I see some mountains in the distance, and they seem important too. I don't know if I'm supposed to go toward them or away from them. So I ask the old woman, but I wake up before she can tell me.

I'm posting that from memory. I'm pretty sure there were a lot more "um"s in the live version.

Yeah, it's back up now

rose · Posted: Tue May 01, 2007 9:07 am

it is working for me. Maybe it came back up?

Occultus · Posted: Tue May 01, 2007 8:22 am

Yeah it's dead, and the google cache won't load unless you click on the link for Cached Text only.

Yup, dead for me too (though that could just be my rubbish work connection).

Can anyone confirm/deny that bseeingu.com is down?

ETA: I can't even get the cached version ... ???

yeah, it seems we're just missing row 3 column 5 now... everything else fits together. I updated the wiki watercolour page with the image from the IG wiki

Sorry I fell a bit behind guys. I didn't have reliable net access last week. Confused

I've been browsing the pictures that were included and this one:

is an etching by Charles Meryon titled "La Morgue" currently in a gallery in Ontario.

There's a page documenting all the package contents received on the wiki here.

There's a page listing the half-page art book sheets also on the wiki. Loumac's portion is the bottom half of p21 of Kiss of the Beast. Captions may not be right, but it's documented Wink

Definitely not! Read whatever you can, there are some good links in this post. But this has really almost just started.

Nice job Mythos. Maybe you could post that link on the Sentries board as well?...

Thanks

Nice job Mythos. Maybe you could post that link on the Sentries board as well? Do we know much about the story being told in the image? other than it being Chluthu ( I am so not interested in learning the mythology - I read about it on wikipedia and a few other sites, but I don't have the time to get too far into it all).

Why is there a black cat, the person who is hanging (suicide?), the people seeming to be calm with all that stuff going on around them?

And, so we know that BA painted this picture (right, as she sent it, or is that a false assumption?) so is this an accurate dream image? If we can find her email address, I would love to ask her that question. I finally thought of something to ask her about. Smile

Edit: Sorry I wasn't advocating posting a link to an OOG wiki, I wasn't thinking about that, but I don't have a problem if you decide to do that. Smile

Maybe you can upload the image as an attachment? I think we need to get information onto that board. Either way, thanks for putting it all together.

Meryon spent the last few years of his life in the same asylum that the Marquis de Sade had been in - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charenton_%28asylum%29

He was confined there after suffering from hallucinations.

I've been messing around with the water colors and I think I've fit the ones we have so far together. It's going to be hard to figure out where those octopus ones go until we get another piece. Is there any way that we can get some better shots of the ones that aren't exactly flat? (I'll rescan mine tomorrow and add it)

btw, you can click on each one to get a closer look.

I've got a little supplement for Varin's picture:
