Where the videos come from is my pick, too, although I have a feeling we will be getting a very cryptic answer.

I asked the first question. Anyone want to suggest a second one? A few other possibilities I thought of are: "What pretty things will we see?" "What are we sick with?" "What hides in our minds?" "What hides in your mind?" "If you're not GMiller, then who are you?" "What was the Wyoming Incident?"

I think you should ask "how will it end" and "what will we see"

That was quick.

Quote:
What you now think of as a series of video has always existed in some form or another. They have been available as Carvings in stone, scrolls, pamphlets, books, etc. Not long ago I was charged with the task of updating them into a more modern form of media. I contacted a young native in the Northern Territories of Canada who had Strayed from his kin and their beliefs. He was rather Pretentious, but it didn't take much to convince him to work for me. He was very resourceful and already had a large library of programs and sounds. I spoke with him for 23 hours, describing what it was I wanted done. He took notes and complied. Eventually he realized that I was not part of any sort of art project and that his works would not be used in the way he wanted them to be. He became very Irate. He's Gone now. I sold the first three videos myself. You already have heard of the three people who bought them, though there are many connections you may not have made.

There are three questions remaining, one of which I get to choose myself.


So, next question?

i'm still curious about the names of the videos and the guy behind them, but i think it might be more informative if we ask him about the connections.

then again, someone here might have that stuff sort of figured out. did we ever find out for sure who owned the second video?

edit: before the guy who posted it to youtube, that is.

I sort of like "what will we see?", or "what are the beautiful things we will see?". I wonder if asking a question about the "cubist"s would be a waste of time, if they're not going to be in the equation anymore?
Man, I hope I can get on the computer this weekend to see how things are going. Sad

I kind of like, "What is the purpose of that which you are updating?" Just asking, "What is the purpose of the videos," could get this: "To update previously available information into a more modern media." But asking for the purpose of WHAT he's updating, as opposed to the medium chosen for the update, could give us something, if he chooses to answer honestly.

Yeah, that's definitely better worded than I had it. Or something about what is the overall message that it's supposed to be relaying

Edit: It also said that he was charged with the task of updating them...by whom?

Second question asked. I went with the purpose one. Maybe we'll get some clues as to who it was charged him with the task.

Damn, I go to lunch and we get answers!!!!

Noted cap letters: CSPIG. I'm going to go through and compile all of these letters somewhere, I'm not so sure it's not random.

This may be an avenue to explore in terms of questions. I *do* think we are missing something. Perhaps a question along the lines of "Are these connections we have missed in the videos themselves or does it have something to do with other information, like from the blogs?"

Hmmm... Perhaps that Yellowstone story someone found is important? I read several pages of it, it seemed interesting but perhaps I should go back through it.

I think he's saying we've missed something, I'm curious as to what it is. Will have to spend some quality time tonight digging around.

Another question suggestion (say that three times fast!): Are you intending to distribute all the videos and on what timeline? (Not sure if that counts as 1 or 2 questions.)

On sort of a funny note, I just signed up for the Happy Cube board as "Killian", which it changed to "-Hug-ian". So, now we obviously know for sure what word "Hug" replaces! Shocked
Have a good weekend, all! Hopefully I can check in and see what's happening with this situation!
