 		For some reason, clicking on the icon in the top left hand corner of that site makes the page... refresh? Something happens.

 		ok, here's the path I've determined from all this......

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
----
1) http://whatsinthebox.nl
hover over the ring and you see the following hex quickly display:
00FFCF FF00D0 8E01FF DAFF00 FF0101 01D4FF 000BFF 42FF00

click on the lower quadrant of the ring, and you get an input box. various keywords will provide a response. of interest is:
help which displays high contrast

others include:
(anything incorrect) uh uh uh, you didn't say the magic word
please: who are you, Dennis Nedry?
whatsinthebox: soon the world will find out
thebox: what's in it
tenacious d: simply the greatest band on earth
babel: why are you giving me the directions, if you are the one who needs them
babelresearch: babel re-search
saga: noevilsagasliveon
hanso: 4 8 15 16 23 42
4 8 15 16 23 42: SYSTEM FAILURE
pandora: Copay Pales
date: 06-08-2018

1a) boost the contrast on the WITB image, and you see the text: +HS PQY-4FLI

1b) View the source of the WITB page, and you find:
/snd/jables.mp3 which in reverse plays: "local protection team report back"

1c) Also in the source: "WASITACATISAW", which is a palidrome (like "Tim Smit")

1d) Also in the source: "Unmask the URL"

----
2) http://babel-research.eu

2a) View the source of the site, and you find:
/snd/hidden.mp3 which in reverse plays: "thank you november"

2b) Also in the source, a number of coloured dots, and "key" attributes with hex values. Locate the "keys" in the correct order:
00ffcf ff00d0 8e01ff daff00 ff0101 01d4ff 000bff 42ff00 fea702
then click on the dots in the same order:
5 1 2 7 9 4 3 6 8
And you see this image appear: http://babel-research.eu/images/army_evac.jpg

2c) On the ABOUT page, view the source and you find:
/snd/ragekage.mp3 which in reverse plays: "we have a 14-juno situation"

2d) In the login entry field at the top right, enter: 59462 (number entered in the first cell phone from the video) and this message appears:
As of 6th of august all remote systemchecks have come to a halt. Please contact local authorities or use remote any remote accesspoint.

2e) the schrodinger cat
when it appears, click it, and you can download:
/snd/discedoMalum.mp3 which in reverse plays: "found. project attainable has failed"

2f) when the 'little secret' object is clickable (not sure how to achieve this), click and you can download:
/snd/uec.mp3 which plays: "operation2347"

----
3) What's in the box?

3a) open the input box on whatsinthebox.nl, and enter operation2347 and you'll be forwarded to a new location

----
4) http://babel-research.eu/witb/UE/

4a) view the source, and you find:
/snd/mc2.mp3 which in reverse plays: "located within quarantine zone"
(this is also revealed in the video stream page source, achieved by clicking on any other portion of the ring)

4b) The image displayed on this page is located here:
http://babel-research.eu/witb/images/UE_join.jpg


that's as much as I know so far...
(and not including anything hanso/Lost ARG related)

edit: thanks otakreg =)

59462 was the number from the original video that the guy typed into the cellphone in order to access the Babel Research info. Thanks for putting together such a well-organized post about the new site, I was starting to get discouraged by all the Lost ARG spam but you've just redeemed the thread and brought us up to date.

 		I'm not sure if somebody noticed, but when you are on the "newspaper" page and try clicking on the letters in the topics of the articles, you find out, that every article has its own letter, which remains (the article will dissapear). The letters are S,E,P,d,X,3(maybe a reversed E),o,S.

 		Assuming the 3 ~ E, the newspaper letters could build up the word EXPOSED, if that's any help.

 		So for the non french fluents ;o)



I sum up for you the thread http://www.yourteube.com/branlette/whats-in-the-box-whatsinthebox/



1) Hidden in the source code page there are 4 .mp3 you have to listen to them backwards



http://babel-research.eu/witb/snd/jables.mp3

http://babel-research.eu/snd/ragekage.mp3

http://babel-research.eu/snd/hidden.mp3

http://babel-research.eu/witb/snd/mc2.mp3



Please note that Jables and Rage Kage refers to Tenacious D.

All these sounds refers ton a date and an evacuation protocol / team communication.



2) The hexadecimal signs on http://www.whatsinthebox.nl/ matches the 9 colored dots of the site http://babel-research.eu/ (i.e source code always)



00 ff cf

ff 00 d0

8e 01 ff

da ff 00

ff 01 01

01 d4 ff

00 0b ff

42 ff 00

fe a7 02



Dots order (ie source code)

1-lock="ff00d0″

2-lock="8e01ff"

3-lock="000bff"

4-lock="01d4ff"

5-lock="00ffcf"

6-lock="42ff00″

7-lock="daff00″

8-lock="fea702″

9-lock="ff0101″



So you have to clic the dots in the following order 5-1-2-7-9-4-3-6-8



And shazam an image appear !

http://babel-research.eu/images/army_evac.jpg

which is an evacuation protocol by the United European Corps (UEC).



4) Play with light and contrast on this image you will see the word "SAGA" appear, if you type in on the first text box you got the palindrom "noevilsagasliveon" which lead to nothing yet.



5) Remember that on http://www.whatsinthebox.nl/ you can find (playing with light / contrast too) the word "+HS PQY-4FLI" which also lead to nothing yet.



6) On Babel-research.eu you can find in the source code, "WASITACATISAW" and a missing image

http://babel-research.eu/images/schrodinger.gif, this refers directly to the Shrodinger Cat (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schr%C3%B6dinger%27s_cat)



7) On the main box site "Uh uh (etc..) and the words displayed when you type "please" "who are you, Dennis Nedry?" refer directly to a nerd character in Jurassic Park, but there is no answer in the film.



Cool In the main text box of whatsinthebox.nl/ you can type :



please >> who are you, Dennis Nedry?

babel >> why are you giving me the directions, if you are the one who needs them

hanso >> 4 8 15 16 23 42

4 8 15 16 23 42 >> system failure

babelresearch >> babel re-search

operation2347 >> open an image http://babel-research.eu/witb/UE/

saga > noevilsagasliveon



Sum Up



The main thing is to find the remote control on babel-research.eu



<w>

<some>

<Unmask>



Important clues are the mirror thing and "Unmask the Url" Smile
