FIGHT. SURVIVE. INFECT.

Ingenbio is an extended alternate reality game inspired by the events of INFEX.

Beginning with the Comic Con launch in San Diego 2008, Ingenbio will take place over a 5 month period culminating in the official release of the book in 2009.

Participants have the opportunity to become involved as "Applicants" or "Agents" to assist Ivy Kendall and Garrett Thorne being held captive within the IngenBio facility. Participants will receive special access and merchandise and receive exclusive offers on future releases. There is no cost to join, and Applicants/Agents are not required to participate.

Non-participants will also be able to follow and unlock clues, as well as observe through the various portals to the experience.

 		Wiki Updates
I updated the wiki with all the VIDEOS from the intranet site.

I also added PHOTOS of the stuff that came in the package for everyone who didn't get one. I used my computers built in iSight so they aren't the best quality but... yeah.

 		OK, the highlighted audio file was still bugging me. I knew we'd had that one before, so I dug through my trash and found the first file. It was stereo and didn't have any noise. This one is mono with squealy noise...
Idea
Ah, into the spectrograph it goes. Not exactly sure what it is, but it's definitely intentional (and one fewer thing to bug me all weekend).

ETA - right side looks like leaves to me (maybe ivy?), while the left has branches, but reminds me of some microscopic stuctures or organisms.

ETA2 - ok, whole thing could be ivy

Subject: The IngenBio Applicant Program
Congratulations, stringstheory.

It's been a over a week since your Applicant Package was mailed, and by providing the control code for ACL2, you have successfully navigated the Applicant Intranet and shown a strong desire for employment at the IngenBio Group.

Over the following weeks, you will be given additional tasks to perform - some individual, some requiring teamwork - in order to demonstrate your potential for employment at IngenBio with full ITC Clearance.

-Dr. Harlan Griffin



Heh, they got my name wrong!
/me isn't stringstheory Razz

But yay, additional tasks to come. ^^

 		Got the same guilt trip letter; you basically need to enter the code from the bottle in the Supplemental Access field

 		I got the letter, but it appears that i'm still in clearance one if you look at the clearance list at archive.ingenbio.com

Also, has anyone found a use for the morse code in the bottle? If i remember i used two to gain access to the new sound with nifty steno, but the other two haven't been used.

As for the spectrogram, for the image above I used Sonic Visualizer:

 		Found the results of the flash

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
edit your applicant profile


Also, went back to the personnel page on archive.ingenbio.net
It's been updated, so some people have moved up to clearance two.
I just happened to look at kendall's mugshot, it's got a bunch of dots in the bottom right, can't tell if it actually say anything or not.

Decided to click around on the archive again, discovered some binary on thorne's security archive

was this there before or after the last code
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Agent John Sleestaxx � Good. You decoded my message. You received this because you successfully executed the hack code I sent you. Watch for them. Griffin doesn�t know I have been able to access this terminal from my holding cell. Ingen�s Control codes are logged, but my hack codes are invisible to Griffin's system. My codes will send you status updates and data required for you to help us escape and bring down Ingen Bio. Seek other applicants who you believe will make trustworthy agents. When Griffin re-opens the applicant screening, enlist other trustworthy friends and work together to help your fellow agents infiltrate IngenBio. Griffin is a dangerous man and must be stopped. But be careful, he is always watching - he suspects the facility has been infiltrated. Applicants must proceed with utmost caution, and suspected agents will not be tolerated. He doesn't know I'm alive, so I must be careful not to tip him off with my communications. They may be vague or encrypted, or hidden. At all costs, you must maintain the appearance of model applicant, and make Griffin believe your primary desire is to work at IngenBio - Even if it means betraying a comrade. Some sacrifices will need to be made, but trust me that it is for the greater good. FSI. - Thorne

 		So does that tell us that Unfiction is being monitored?

Also, FWIW, on the clearance list, the original ingenbio staff is gone, and clearance only goes ACL1 and ACL2. Griffin and others have disappeared!

I thought that the whole bin string said all that. and I began to investigate vanishing game and then I thought more about it and I deciphered the bin myself and I see that it means
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Allison Hedera
so now I think that is an anagram of sorts and I am trying to un-anagram that.

quick stop me if i am on the wrong rabbit trail..
