Has anybody gotten an image of a Bandpass on 719Hz?? I highly doubt it, but mebby it'd be some sort of barcode, morse code, binary, etc?
Eh, i'll try it anyway later 2nite.

[WILD Spec]

Wild Speculation-

The Glyph that we have will need to be overlayed until we have an image like redct posted on page 1. This is the symbol (and signal) which represents the Ark and Halos being in standby mode.

The sound file and image of 719hz are the symbol and signal for the activation and firing of the Ark/Halo Array.

Try lowering the frequency

I assumed it was already at a super high frequency (probably designed so we couldn't hear it). Try lowering the frequency, bit by bit.

I did. I dropped it down to normal hearing frequencies and it was just a lower whine. I think the sound was designed to be spectrographed.

I've been messing around with it on Soundbooth and messed around with the parametric equalizer to cut out all but the 719 Hz level. When I do that I get a a few main beeps... maybe morse? . ... . - .

thats what it would look like in morse I guess... Seems pretty far-fetched though. I have pics of the spectral displays if anyone wants them

yeah, i'd like to see it, even just for curiosity's sake... i'd like to hear the sound file, too, if you would, though i doubt it'll lead anywhere...

Assuming those dots and dashes you put at the end of your message is the morse, it doesn't translate to anything special.

Ends up being ESETE

The glyph obtained with the 719 Hz freq capture does not look like a composite of the rest of the glyphs because the circles on the outside spokes on all of the other glyphs are tangental to the spoke arm and are not instead "Cut down the middle" like the circles at the end of the obtained symbol.

Its quite possibly a forerunner chart of the phases of earths moon, the inner circle representing earth and the outer circles representing the moon. It would support the theory NightmareRec0n found very nicely.

i think it being like that is a byproduct of it being an image translated into a sound- not the most natural place for an image. but that is a good theory. anyone here familiar enough with moon phases to find that out? if that's true it might be related to SOTA.

Okay so using my mediocre photoshop skills I came up with the above picture, the one on the left is the glyph in 8 different configurations based on the phases of the moon http://www.wpclipart.com/space/illustrations/Moon_Phases.png

The circles are directly on top of their lines, not tilted

I agree that the image in the center can be perceived as 3-dimensional (i.e., a planet)

Has anyone looked for old Mayan charts or symbols or something of that nature? Because the image in the spectrograph sure is familiar...

The .jpg we got off of server 2 also appears to be a planet and its moon.

And finally, the phone message conversations make references to "seasons" and "systems."

All that togehter, and I think we've got a pretty solid moon link. As someone mentioned in another thread, it seems likely that is when we will get updates. And it also seems like it will have some significance to the story itself.

Kinda off topic, but when I saw this image it totally reminded me of the blast door from Lost.
