 		Er, hi. (First time actually here, got really interested in the ilovebees thing, but then started looking at this... wow.)

When I saw the IIII lines, I thought 4 too, and there's an "opening" according to the Ward B list in bed #4.
(I also look at the letters and thing "PSU" (Please Save Us?) "CMH" (Obvious) and "MEL" (Michael, Edward, and Lawence, also as on the ward list?)

I hope I'm not covering something someone else has already thought of.

 		umm a first post,

I don't know if this has been mentioned (at least I dont think so) but regarding Brad C.'s dream (the one with a lot of colors), if you goto the Tomorrow's Talk website and hover your mouse over "contact" link, the picture on the left has a screen with a color pattern that matches the one in the dream (blue, green, red but reverse order). It's pretty weak and reveals nothing but an unsubstantial connection to Tomorrow's Talk, however.

 		In dream 2003_00353 (William S), at one point, it appears that an object is being thrown out of a window. See attached images for screen captures of those frames.

Spec:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Looks like a chair, but what's the part at the top of the back? Some sort of restraint, to go around the neck or throat? It looks a bit like images of garroting chairs, or electric chairs.


Further spec:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
XyzzySqrl, Dishboy, Karmic_Crimewave and I discussed this in chat... could it be that the circular distortion throughout this dream is meant to represent the fact that it's being viewed through a camera lens, as it might be if it were the dream of a Dread House contestant? And if so, could it be that this person is running from someone (or something) inside which is coming after him, and which has thrown this chair-like item in an attempt either to attack him or to break out the window to come through?

Regarding the object itself - it looks like it could be some sort of torture or restraining device - could it be that this is one of the DH props, since per the Dread House expose site, the show was meant to include (faked) deaths of contestants dying in ways to reflect some of the atrocities that actually took place in CMH?


Creepy but interesting... anyone else have thoughts?

As she described in text description 2003-00246 689306, flames (fire), marching band, and electricity.


I'm surprised that nobody's mentioned this yet, but just before the flames turn into the marching band, it LOOKS like there's words scrolling across the screen.

At least I think there are.

 		Binary in the pendulum...
Hi All - my first post, I'm a newbie. Someone has already identified the pendulum. I ran a binary on the pattern of the pins knocked over - 6 up, 4 down - 1111110000 - I ran it through the binary translator, and believe it or not (please, check it!), the translation was a SMILIE.= Smile Maybe this has nothing to do with anything, but anything could be something, in this game.

Similar to text description 2003-00521 990612.
The bleeding colors of red, yellow and green gain focus into the drawing of a sun face (we may need to find the original picture). Then the very close view of the pendulum barely missing the blocks (I've seen something like this at museums - world clocks and stuff like that - can anyone find this particular one?)

Here is an inverted screen cap of the picture.

I think the guy in the middle is the Grim Reaper. You can kind of make out the Dark robe and i think he's holding a scythe


Ok.. maybe it's just me.. but this pic looks resembles another picture IMHO. Only it's flipped which makes sense to me with the first one being creation and this one being death.. Or.. I might just be reaching.. but it caught my attention.

Heya, I'm new as well - and all I've got to add is a date correllation. According to Dreadhouse.com, Tomorrows Talk started looking for contestants towards the end of 2002. They were conducting site audits at about the same time, according to the video (17th of December 2002) According to Dreamprojecttor, the dream in question happened about mid 2003, 6 months later. So I wonder if it's possible we're seeing events that actually happened during the filming of Dreadhouse? 6 months doesn't seem too unreasonable a time to film a reality TV show.

Also, there's the urban legend about people being vulnerable to things produced by electrical equipement while they sleep. It's not entirely unreasonable to assume that the cameras couldn't have a similar effect to the kids Gameboy, especially if they're using those digital video cameras.

I wonder if we don't need to find a connection between DreamProjector and Tommorrows Talk fairly urgently.

Also, Am I the only one who keeps reading "Tomorrows Talk" as "Tomorrow Stalk"?
Edit: Ah, I apologise - apparently not.

 		WILD SPEC: Just saw that the colors coming from the buildings all have correspondance to colors mentioned in Dreamprojector. They mention dreams containg red,green,yellow and electricity, which is blue...

Highly un-useful and probably just me, been awaken to long!

The more I think about this one, the more plausible it seems. The urban myth it's sort of based around is this one, Brain Drain. According to "Dreadhouse.com", the players were equipped only with a flashlight, a wireless video camera to record their movements, and a wireless PDA device...

The Dreamprojector sequence DOES seem to be rather like a series of edited and clipped together camera shots, and it does bear a strong resemblence to the video clip over at Dreadhouse, which I also wonder if it wasn't a cast member, but actually the view from a contestants camera.
Just a shame that movie file is so cruddy you can't really see anything.

I hope there's better evidence than THAT as to what's going on, because that video clip is firmly in the realm of bigfoot sightings, and I don't think that dream sequences would hold up as admissable evidence in a court of law.

Did anyone notice that the logo for Urban Myth is those same colors? And they seem to be hitting specific buildings in some skyline?
