[UPDATE] Paul Denchfield 19th May 2007
All Updates

EDIT: Made it a bit more organized.

Be Prepared

So, today's the day. I'm about to head over to the Big Weekend venue. Bit grey and grim at the moment. I'm taking an unflattering red anorak, so keep an eye out for me. The BBC seems happy for eveyone to take cameras too, so I'll be lugging the Z1 around. Come and say hi if you see me.

I'll be blogging when I can, but if you really want to stay up to date during the day, join the Twitter group over there. It's free. -->

Right. We need to find these symbols. Violet is on the case - her instructions make more sense than I can: http://www.violetunderground.com/archives/2007/05/angel.html.

Basically, if you're at the festival or watching on TV, you need to look out for symbols and take photos of them (or get a good description). Send them in to me - photosSPLATpauldenchfield.com - and I'll put them up on this page.

People online and at home can then start making sense of them, using Violet's instructions. The more symbols we find, the closer we'll be to locating the transmitters at the site here. And it's a big site.

But first and foremost, we need to get pictures of these symbols.

Grab your camera phones. Keep 'em peeled.

Woohoo! Wi-fi!

Hey - just got in. It's crazy here - thooooouusands of people and insane noise, and the bands haven't even started yet. Found myself a nice wi-fi point, so I'll be uploading vids as much as I can. Here's a taster:

More to come.

Took some quick photos too - they're on the Flickr feed here.

I've seen one or two symbols around - and you've been texting in with sightings too. When you text in, make sure you get the WORD, NUMBER, COLOUR, SHAPE and STYLE OF SHADING (solid, empty, half-filled...). Pics are simplest!

Now into the breach...

Cheers!

Already getting loads of photos now - and finding tons of people who are on the case. Quick vid clips (and name-checks) of some of them here:

The music has started - Jamie T is shaking the stage as I write this - and we've already got quite a few of those symbols in. Let me know how you're doing on grouping them together.

So, big thanks to everyone who's texted and emailed and camera-phoned in - keep going! Must be more to find out there.

Chasing dots

Looks like we have something like a complete map of the site now - but still no way of working out what it means or where those transmitters are.

There were a series of boxes with crosses in on the map which looked like they might mean something - so we went to check them out:

So - we need to keep hunting.

And relax

Quote:

Right - thank you EVERYONE for your work today - we've got the map and I'm pretty sure we've triangulated the eventual locations of the transmitters. But they're not there. I've been round and checked the places on the ground - there's just nothing odd there.

Quote:

All I can think is that we've found where the transmitters need to be at some key point. And I expect that's tomorrow. Violet has some ideas about what that time (or those times) will be, so I'll try to get more details from here.

So - looks like we're at a dead end for today. We're half-way there. Tomorrow, we'll try and get those transmitters at the right time and nail Cyrus. Fingers crossed. Enjoy the music. Sleep well.
