One of the guys on SPAI is her friend on her blog, if that helps any at all. Or a picture on her blog, can't remember... he's probably connected in some way in teh future...
*has eye on him*
Anyway, anyone ever figure out what to do with that map?
And I wish I could get a cool email! LOL.
So apparently the event is important, for that link to go to an "add calander" option.

 		I'll check out the blog. Profile is bookmarked, lol.
EDIT: Methinks we should keep a record of symbols found so far. we may get a lot before this is over, lol.
Also, it would help if someone could give us what each symbol means specifically... i'd do a search but i'm not sure what the necklace symbol represents.

The closest it looks like to me is the Triple Goddess symbol of the waxing crescent, full moon, and waning crescent.

theres our symbols so far. the "triple moon" one from the firt puzzle you gotta scroll down a bit.

and has anyone contacted pete tong or sarah main on there myspace?


we need to find james haddow and JC spaulding and the weird trinket guy. either these people are cheap or they only took a few pics every where you go its the same pics. the pics in her blog are used in the moving puzzle. and theres only 2 that are different. the ruins (which are probably Phoenician) and the red door. and that SPAI site is buggin me i know theres something there. better not have to wait till july 5th thats lame. Maybe its on sarah mains myspace? she has met the trinket guy and has a triple crescent necklace now?

just because..... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phoenicia

Hey good find! Might help in the future, we'll see.
Also, superimposing teh points on teh newspaper over teh globe might not be a bad idea... at least to see what it might lead to. BUt I don't know how important it is yet.

how could we do that with points? its either that or they spell something.i think. iv got no reply from noone still. why would they all be using same account? iv tried hacking it but im impatient and feel bad for doing it. iv been try to look for a james haddow myspace and her friends she mentions on her blog. havent had much luck though.

 		New post on Sarah Main's MySpace:
Quote:
Has anyone seen Elisabeth?

I'm trying to locate my friend Elisabeth Perl. She's about 19 years old,
blonde, about 5'5''. She was last seen at the International Music Summit in
Ibiza. I've been in touch with her work (www.sociedadibiza.com) and no one's
seen her, and she hasn't updated her blog (www.laislablanca.com) since. And
now she's sent me this odd video.......

Plus a video from Elisabeth:
LINK
She mentions the number for help is:
41 22 37 27
2 09 10 54

ETA - first thought was that it could be a lat lon coordinate. Taken as dms, that puts it in Barcelona, but I don't know if there's any significance (besides the Sonar festival going on there right now I mean - haven't found a connection between that and the location). Looks to be about 2km from where the festival is taking place.
MAP

ETA2 - new video on DJSounds as well:

 		DJ Yoda is definitely the next step in the puzzle. There is nothing on it on his MySpace, but I'm going to message him about it.

 		Almost missed the post on Pete Heller's MySpace blog:
Quote:
Seems that someone has been tampering with my music in a most unexpected fashion...
The story is that a couple of months ago, a certain light-fingered person reached into my cd wallet while I was dj-ing at a gig. I only became aware of this when I tried to find the cd - with 2 new tracks I've been working on - at a later gig. I wasn't too bothered about this until a friend told me about this website - http://www.thewhiteisland.com - where the very same tunes seemed to have resurfaced. All very mysterious and more than a little worrying as you can imagine.
What's more, when I downloaded my music from this site I noticed that something was up with one of the files - someone seems to have embedded a graphic within the mp3 file. You can find the files here:

https://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?action=batch_download&batch_id=Smp0Z28ycWY4NVUwTVE9PQ

I finally managed managed to decode the embedded file using stegenography software. I'll have a go at the second track tomorrow, but it's too late now and I'm off for some well earned sleep!
Night night!

I've downloaded the files but haven't had any luck destegging them yet. I'm not sure what they were stegged with as there doesn't seem to be much software out there for stegging MP3s. I haven't looked at the spectrum yet either, so maybe it's there.

 		I have transferred the files into .wav and put them through the spectogram16...playing around with it a bit but I don't seem to be getting any results.

We should really find out with what he stegged them Confused

Hope you guys have better luck than me

 		Bit of a *headdesk* here, but I found the images inside the MP3s. When Pete said he found them using steganography software, he really meant it - a program simply named Steganography. It took a bit to figure out that much, and even more time to find an actual download link that works.
LINK

The two files are halves of a new symbol (attached). I was going to post this all to Heller's MySpace blog, but you have to be a friend to post, so I'm waiting for that to go through (if it does). I'm not quite sure where else to post or email it to at this point, so I've sent an email to thegirliswithusnow.

 		Might be a crude representation of the astrological sign Cancer.

Although the Triple Goddess was more a Neopagan/Wiccan symbol
