London's morse codes

Right, so far we have...

-./ ---/ -/ .../ ./ -/ ..-./ -/ .-/ -/ .- -/ ./ -/ --/
"N O T S E T F T A T AT E T M"

..-/ .../ -/ --/ -/ ..../ ./ ---/ ?/
"U S T M T H E O ?"

.-../ ../ ./ .-./
"L I E R"

../ -..../ -/ ---/ ..-/ -/ .-../ ../ ./ .-./
"I 6 T O U T L I E R"

-/ ./ ...-/ -.-./ -.--/ ..../ ---/ ./ .-./ -./
"T E V C Y H O E R N"

.../ -/ .../ ./
"S T S E"

../ -./ -.-/ .-../ ../ ?/.--/ .../ -/ ..../ -/ .../
"I N K L I ? W S T H T S"

-/ .-../ .-/ -./ -./ --/ .../ ..-/ .../ ./ ./
"T L A N N M S U S E E"

..../ .--./ -.--/ -../ ..-/ .../ ./ ./
"H P Y D U S E E"

./ -./ .--/ ..../ --./ -./
"E N W H G N"

---/ .-/ -./
"O A N"

---./ ..-/ ./ ---./ ..-/ ..-/ .-/ .../ ./ ./
" U E U U A S E E"

..-/ ..-/ ./ ./

"U U E E"

So all in all, we have...

"N O T S E T F T A T AT E T M U S T M T H E O ? L I E R I 6 T O U T L I E R T E V C Y H O E R N S T S E I N K L I ? W S T H T S T L A N N M S U S E E H P Y D U S E E E N W H G N O A N U E U U A S E E U U E E"

scrambled eggs.

Or, alternatively, what we have is...

The alignment is wrong when I post, but you get the idea.

EDIT: Tally, all I did was take what you posted and ran it through a translator, so my first post is yours, just translated from morse code.

"Not safe at the Tate" leaps out at me from that...sounds like the Cube was at the Tate...Modern...Gallery...Britain? However, we need the rest of the Morse translated in order to discern where it might have been taken to

I am now toying with the idea that

might now be

without ...lier


Apart from that I am suffering from a surfeit of vowels.

Is anyone able to upload their video somewhere? That would mean we could get back to first principles and avoid any transcription errors. A quick google reveals lots of sites that claim to offer free video hosting.

Also, "I6" overlaps, as does "IERT" and "LANNMSUSEEH"

The problem is that these dots and dashes may not be accurate. It was difficult to distinguish between them at times, the pauses were erratic and I may well have missed some. In addition, the first line may not be the first line, if that makes sense, since the lines are not necessarily in order. It's just the best I could do.

What I am working on is the possibility that some of the notation is incorrect, and looking for plausible substitutions...

It's still good thinking.

By the look of these, I'd say that you and rob_riv were watching the same one, but I can't find anywhere that fuse's would fit in, so i'm assuming he was watching the other.

I'd love to get my hands on ninja_granny's transcripts, as he managed to write it 5 times.

Ninja_granny was in my team, and said he'd email what he had. I'll text him and get him to send it to me.

fantastic. which morse code light were you watching? the right hand one or the left?

EDIT: also, can we get a list of exhibits at the tate yesterday, and see if any of them go missing over the next week?
