 		The Love Parade has been 'confirmed', as it's now listed in the 'What is TWI'-book on the Story page;

Quote:
And a further series of clues has led investigators on a hunt to Europe's best dance events - the Ibiza opening parties, Sonar Festival and the Love Parade, to name a few.


I might have read of it earlier, tho.


So we now have;
Ibiza, where Elisabeth was before stuff happened and the usb drive was stolen
Barcelona, Sonar Festival, DJ Yoda thing
Dortmund, Love Parade
London, ??? (Elisabeth wrote in her blog that James is/was in London)

That's it for now, I guess. ;X

 		 the white island
It is very interesting you mention that he is at the love parade. I am thinking are they listing people from different event the happen sequentially after each other. Does this mean e can work out the next major party on the calendar. Also remind us ho james fits in to the story again. Have been doing some research of here blog and has anyone studied the international music conference thing that they make mention of that happens in ibiza. She makes a mention that we should check it out. SO I am doing that and if I discover any valuable information I will put link sup and keep you posted. Also i tried to vie the code from the creators page on myspace and it seems to have a lot of noise in the foreground. if you eliminate it using noise reduction software did you know there is a tune playing in the background. Did anyone else find this. couldn't amplify the background noise as pro-tools will not do this for video. Also has anyone got any development on how AP's 2 pictures fit in to the thing. Cause i think they are saying looik at the picture closer by having the welcome page as a zoom in on part of the picture. Is there a watermark on this image. SOmeone please have a look for a water mark as this may give us more clues. Also they say if anyone has any more info about him to e-mail the people. I have e-mailed them with more info. But get no reply. Ok till my next post keep at it guys. Your doing great and I also notice that one of the posters on here may be giving out clues as he posts very irregularly and is a fan on the creators page. If you know who u are please give us more clues.

 		I am almost positive Puzzle two plays out a sample from one of the two songs. I just started today and like most people got puzzle 1 and 3 done but 2 is very difficult with way to many combination. Is there any vocal samples from the two tracks that are maybe drowned out? Also anyone able to get rid of the noise in the video of Pete Tong. The one where he says "So it went like this... *white noise*"?

The same tune is played at the Pete Tong promo video, which can be seen on thewhiteislandarg myspace page.

http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=35310755

After turning the volume way up, you can hear Pete talking in the noise-video. I just can't hear what he's saying. I tried removing the noise, but it made my audio editor crash. ;(

edit:

So I once again started reading the laislablanca weblog to find any clues, and one thing caught my eye.

In the Orientation post Elisabeth made, she said she found a newspaper from 1938 under her bed. She found it a bit creepy, but doesn't tell us why.

After solving the 3rd puzzle, however, you get to the Antonio Perleamo website. There it says "Some historians believe he renounced art altogether after 1936 and settled in one of the Nordic countries, while a local legend has it that he returned, once again, in 1938 but was never seen again." Coincidence? I think not.

Now, why Elisabeth found it creepy? What was her last name? Right, Perl. Now, what is Antonio's last name? Perleamo. Amo is Spanish for 'man, bloke, fellow', according to InterGlot. So that makes Antonio's last name 'Perle Man', or most likely, 'Perl Man'. Could it be that Antonio is Elisabeth's grandfather, and was in the newspaper? ;O

 		I tried looking up on http://www.google.com.au for the newspaper and found nothing related to it.

Maybe there is a page out there with a copy of the newspaper. Hold on I just remembered if you search the white island on www.youtube.com you ca see a video where the little pot wit 2 clues in it that Pete Tong recieve and they get emptied out on a newspaper. Cannot translate it as it is in SPanish. Maybe PPl should check it out. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vt5V6KDQNN8 thats the link for the page with the video on it. Also check out the other video by the same person as it flashes a thing right at the end of the video whcihc might be useful. Has anyone thought that we have been to myspace and youube. Maybe there is something on facebook. Have a look around.

 		The newspaper sent with the three items was dated 2008, and has been solved already on page 2. (;

When you follow the lines those two words appear, just hinting at the beginning of the story. There's not much else to do there. (:

 		There's a new video up on TWI.com!

http://www.thewhiteisland.com/homepage.php

(maybe more new stuff, haven't checked it yet)

Transcript:
I could be wrong, English is not my native tongue ;P wrote:
So, I came to, and there was all these people.
And I found out, it was the Love Parade.
And there was... I felt this incredible energy.
And a man came up to me, who I've never seen in my life, and he was wearing this.
And he gave me one. And then he said
'Follow the flow of the energy to Kent (or Ghent?), where you will find what you're looking for'
And he said there would be other people there to help me. The Brotherhood of the Green Chrysanthemum.
Was it a dream? Is this a dream?
