morse code

[THEREALOWINN]

Strange, I got Morster to try it out and at first it was inconclusive but after a few adjustments I got the word 'understood' and then a whole sentence 'should we settle on the' and then nothing else :/ possibly a fluke so will try to recreate results - if I have any joy I'll try to film what it comes up with.

Eh forget it, it isn't going to work. I'm not the only one seeing the about page background animate (the bubbles moving to the right) am I? I'm just asking as it doesn't seem to do this on my iPad's browser but does on Chrome on my Macbook.

Hi, new here. There is an iPhone app called Morster that can convert morse code from a light source through the iPhone or iPad' camera. Just throwing that out there.

This is quite interesting, considering the website is optimized for iPad viewing.
There's js code and even an image for iPad, the one I've attached.

i've tried morsemodem & ledcomm apps last night and they were inconclusive regardless of wpm. this is partly because the greys and irregular patterns were throwing off the dits and dahs.

taking the idea from bruce about lining up the flashing patterns and noting the 16x16 grid pattern on the website, i took mr. toasty's concat.png and placed it along a 16 x 16 pixel square -lining them up all the way down. i noticed at the bottom there are 19 blank spots. it may or may not be coincidence that the morse code from the earlier pattern also had 19 dits and dahs and an underscore preceding it.

since it does not contain a reference marker at the top right corner and the questionable greys i doubt it's a micro qr code.

Will follow along as best I can but can't commit to this today. Perhaps later if it's still unsolved.

i suspected lorem ipsum and found a few phrases on google. but found it suspicious it be found under:

Code:

div class="aboutPeterWeyland" <h3> <strong>ABOUT</strong> WEYLAND CORP..

while some sentences were found, the first latin sentence didn't show in in a search i did.

I still don't quite get how the morse code is deciphered from the layers, but you might have bumped into something, Minz. Did you ignore the mid-gray layers and used only black and white? I can see how the alpha layers could be spaces, now that I think about it.

I tried translating everything into binary code assuming the mid grays as zeros, but I didn't get anything from this:

And it wasn't going to work anyway seeing as ascii characters are 8-bit and 237 isn't divisible by 8. So it must be morse code.[/code]

note that the block is in a hidden div, other content being similar to visible page content. Pretty sure they just didn't remove it when they updated the about us page.
