Last known project video? Like the project that Jeff was working on that I've been trying to get information about every single time I talk to Jeff or Steve? That's just great. Can somebody watch it and tell me in excruciating detail what happens/convert the file to like, .mov? Like I said, I hate this stupid old mac.

 		breaking down the code in another way to see if we can make anything of it.

taking E4 A6 D8 A4 D6 E8 D5 E6 A8 A4 D6 E8
Code:

E A D
4 6 8

A D E
4 6 8

D E A
5 6 8

A D E
4 6 8


as for the video, still downloading it, it's big. 142.9MB. I don't know if I can convert it or not, maybe someone else can, but I might be able to upload it to youtube for you, if no one else can convert it for you.

here is a place online where you can convert files for free, it's pretty slow though. I haven't used it in awhile and I don't know if it works with files of this size or not. http://media-convert.com/

 		Basically its a video made by Jeff while he was still working at the lab. JB edited it for us because there are bleeps every time Jeff says the name of the laboratory he works for and when he says what they are studying.

In the video...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Jeff explains that he has been working on a camera, and he made 2 of them. One is just a prototype hooked up through his computer and the second one is the finished model. He begins to explain how it should work but does not give any information away as to what it is supposed to do. Towards the end of the video you hear a scream and Jeff says "Oh Shit" and then the video cuts out and the audio continues to scream really loudly. Definitely the creepiest video so far...


Spoiled for those that want to experience it for themselves

 		Oy, Sylvia, you're freaking awesome. Haha. Smile
And nextday, what kind of stuff was Jeff saying when he was explaining how it should work? If he was talking about any special frequencies or any new kind of equipment or anything remotely engineering/physics related, I may be able to figure out what it does, or is supposed to do.

 		He is working on a camera for *beep* labs... he is describing what he has done to the camera and points to an I/O card connected to a tape deck... That's when the scream comes...

The whole movie is of his workstation in front of his monitor with a whole bunch of computer stuff I don't know what it is... a big blue thing with "gary" or "cary" on it...a pair of pliers, a calculator... what looks like a fan to a computer?

I am not good at pics and movie stuff so someone jump in at any time.

 		Went through the movie and these are the "technical" things he says about the cameras.

"Camera number 2 has separate lens. Taken a converter and put it to the lens, so we can see ____ hopefully.
Camera number one is the simple design. Our black box with intel. Two caps. A transfer laid wire, kind of a neutral wire just in case. Setup going to the hard drive then going back to the computer. So we can display ______. Here is the IO card that we designed and its running straight through the tape deck into the IO ports of the camera."

He does not say anything when the screaming starts

A converter lens is an attachment used on digital cameras to change the focal point and quality of the pictures. I assume the converter they are using is something much more advanced than a simple photography converter, which really just gives the photographer more versatility in shooting outdoors on a digital and stuff. As for the setup of camera 1, that "black box with intel" sparks my interest. Does he mean Intel, like the computer company, or intel as in "intelligence?" A "black box" in planes and stuff is virtually indestructable and stores important information and equipment for the plane in case of an emergency, so an indestructable box that's storing all of the info from the high-tech cameras that see something past a human's range of vision could be what that guy wants access to.

 		transcript
here is what we are looking at
(screen starts out with the normal fuzzy look we have become accustomed to from Jeff's videos.) OK, (screen clears up) I'm back now. I had to get another piece. Here's our documentation tape 83 for (bleep)labs? I am in lab 19 right now. We are putting our final touches to the (bleep) camera. This is camera 1 of 2. I was only assigned to do one camera but I decided I better have two just in case. Um, my circuits are all set up. Pretty much just a test. I want to see what else I can see. This is the first camera. This is what I designed. (shows us camera two, the one he designed) It's a separate, a separate lens. I've taken a converter and put it to the lens. So we can see (bleep) hopefully. That's for camera number two. Camera number one (points back to the camera and circuit boards etc. on the table) is just a simple design. Our black box with intel, two caps, a transfer lead wire. Kinda like a neutral wire just in case. Set up going to the hard drive and back to the computer.So we can display (bleep) Here's the I/O card we designed and it's running straight through the tape deck into the I/O ports of the camera. I'm going to finish up this (blood curdling scream in the background) tape. Oh shit! (runs to check out scream) (we now hear a terrible screetching noise and the screen goes black)

Can't upload the file to Youtube. It exceeds the file size limit.

I don't think so. You guys pretty much explained the entire video. Haha. Smile
Plus I don't want to be haunted with the screams tonight like I was with the creepy voicemail last night.

EDIT: Hahahahaha I am loving the TI-83 in the background of that first picture. Laughing
