Here's a version of the sleep.mp3 thats a little bit clearer. Its not great or anything but I didn't really know what I was doing and I already spent too much time on it...plus its spooky. I have listened to it so many times at this point that I'm pretty sure nothing will ever scare me again.

I'm maybe hearing "sing to me" in the middle and "trust us" at the end but its still really tough to tell. Headphones help.

Feel free to improve on it if anyone has any experience with this sort of thing.

 Let's do the Time Warp again...
It's just a jump to the left

I'm intrigued by this too. My search of the audio turned up bubkiss, but I did e-mail echo. Here's the odd thing- I accidentally e-mailed the same questions twice and got differing responses. Questions like should we do the time warp, which dimension are you from and such. Here are the responses:

Email 1
Quote:
spirit in limbo

margaret died

go to sleep


Email 2
Quote:
two sides battle inside

struggle

within ear

two voices

eternal


Maybe we need to look at the audio on dual channels? I'll try doing a wittty waitress-tip joke in my next e-mail. See if that brings up anything.

Plus this development:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The head of a man


Could that mean:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
More dreaming/sleeping imagery, or something south of the border? Wink


Take Care,
Kendra

Edited to add:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
It suddenly occurs to me, the lines you see in the spectrogram- I wonder if they're dashes for morse code?

I didn't see it mentioned, so I'll chime in to say that 'sleep.mp3' has 'Surfer Girl' by the Beach Boys at the front end and, I think, at the end. I also think I hear 'Night night' right at the end, but...

Can't get thedoor. Almost sounds like the begining to 'Riders on the Storm' but it isn't I don't think...

Quote:
In 1964, Raudive read Friedrich Jürgenson's book, Voices from Space, and was so impressed by it that he arranged to meet Jürgenson in 1965. He then worked with Jürgenson to make some EVP recordings, but their first efforts bore little fruit, although they believed that they could hear very weak, muddled voices. According to Raudive, however, one night, as he listened to one recording, he clearly heard a number of voices. When he played the tape over and over, he came to believe he understood all of them. He thought some of which were in German, some in Latvian, some in French. The last voice on the tape, according to Raudive, a woman's voice, said "Va dormir, Margarete" ("Go to sleep, Margaret").


Also from the tag: Petrautzi [Komponist]

Of course "Petrautzki" is not the componist but another reference to Margarete Petrautzki.

When color corrected and rotated there are some hidden numbers and letters originally in the bottom right hand corner of "thedoor.jpg".
Stumped as to their significance. Maybe related to Russell_k's source code "dots" posted above. Dunno

BigJ1666--obviously not sure but it appears echo is speaking for many.

I emailed it --

Where is the other side?

I got the reply --

go to sleep

So I sent back --

why do i need to sleep?

haven't yet received a reply to that one.

Also the series of dots that are in the source on the door.htm page are also above the photo on the same page but in black (ctrl+A and you'll see it all)

Ok, from that photo I can see the number --

206-888-5610 (at least I think it's a one)

BigJ1666 tells me that (206) is the area code for Seattle which would all fit in.
The word underneath the numbers looks like "patience" in which case, I would be jumping in to call JUST yet.
Maybe better to leave it for a while?

BigJ1666--Well,that would be SUPAH--ty. And,BTW, agree with Waitress that her emails are by far the creepiest and more personal of the lot. Laughing

on the door page that synth that is playing over Riders. It almost sounds like some synth from "I'm not in love" by 10cc. Tell me if you think I am full of it on that one. I am not quite awake yet.
