Interesting enough, although the UK picture has an extra light on as seen here:

See image here.

Nice way to pass the time, but it's not authentic...It sure has changed the direction of thought, which is probably exactly the artist's goal.

The Japanese and UK screens are in different positions over the same text. This leads me to believe that they are actual screenshots of a scrolling image taken at non-exact points in time. There has been an extraordinary amount of thought and planning put into this.
The different light patterns tell me we're not seeing everything and that the lights (at least one) most likely flash in some pattern or sequence. So, even if this is authentic, I (personally) don't see any chance of extracting anything of value from this series of images. Confused

As I look back at the hunt to date, I have seen a variety of different approaches to problem-solving in the puzzles (i.e. visual, patterns, images, logical, numbers, counting, audio etc.). We all have different inherent abilities, and I am praying to Huracan (tongue in cheek) that he (or SHE as it may be) send me a clue that activates my brain cells quicker than yours!

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
But seriously, good luck to all. I thank you for your collective wisdom immensely Smile

Ok, so IF this is real, maybe some light shed on this puzzle.



To the left, there are 4 "groupings" of lights, and the light in question all the way to the right (small window light) was said to be on in one pic and off in another, possibly blinking. Could be morse code or sumthign of the sort to mean a letter.

4 groupings of lights + a blinkign llight for a letter = _ _ _ _ N/S

Co-ords?

BTW...That picture only shows a few of the light groupings, refer back to other photos to see all the groupings.

A small point perhaps, but the light from a window wouldn't illuminate the roof above and behind it.

You mean the ship in front of it perhaps? Nice try but the sails are furled. If you're really twiddling your thumbs - backtrack to Tropic of Cancer and ponder why the spoken word doesn't match the printed version. Happy hunting all.
