Hey there,

Few small observations...

Thea is comprised only of letters from the word Breathe.

The overlayed guy (more visible if you raise the brightness) is clutching at his throat and looks like he is struggling to breathe.

The picture in the bottom corner looks like a movie still and it's quite saturated suggesting the early days of colour...don't recognise it though.

The picture in the top corner...don't really have a lot to say about that. Other than obviously it features a scantily clad woman squatting and I would say it looks more like a painting, but I'm not at all sure.

The picture in the middle is hard to tell but after ARGNet's article it's probably most likely to be people out clubbing.

I realise most of that is fairly obvious but I thought I'd say it anyway in case it causes someone to have a revelation!

Don't know if it makes any difference, but the link to the flash is..

http://www.breathewith.me/breathe4.swf

So I checked out breathe1.swf breathe2.swf (nothing) and finally got something on breathe3.swf which seems to be the exact same picture.

Odd that they would still keep it there though.

The whole point of the ARG is to work with a detective infiltrating the underground club culture. Unfortunately, that's all we know. One phrase caught my eye: save the next victim from running out of air. This implies that somebody is out killing via suffocation. Obviously, raves are easy places to get lost in all the pretty trance-inducing lights and the LOUD MUSIC, but you wouldn't dare strangling somebody in a club. Commonly, the nightclubs are perfect places to take illicit substances - drugs. I believe that we'll be working to expose a big narcotics ring that deals drugs that weaken your cardiovasculatory system, namely the gathering of oxygen in the lungs, to a point where you start to choke and can't breathe. The man in the middle of the picture struggling to breathe indicates that whoever is committing the murders, the modus operandi is most likely suffocation. Note that NOBODY ELSE is with him. That furthers my drug theory.

I retract my question/confusion.

Thanks snorkle

[snorkle256]

well there was the informative article on argn
http://www.argn.com/archive/000809remember_to_breathe.php

[Gazz]

That article gives us a name though, good spot snorkle.

A quick google doesn't really give anything for det. John Franks (other than a Santa Ana gang buster...) just searching bookface now, I'll edit if it throws anything up

[FSURobbie]

This ARG looks sweet. So where are we at? Someone point me in a direction...

[snorkle256]

I don't think Breathe has quite started up yet. I'd email thea and get the auto-response listed, its possible that when it does start they'll email all of us that emailed them.

I went to the http://www.project-euh.com/breathe/?# site & did some digging around. There's a strip of graphics with a portion of some guy's face from mid-nose to just below the chin. Above that strip of graphic is the BREATHE WITH ME link that opens the smaller window with the guy breathing & coughing. Below the strip of graphic is another link titled EUH?. Clicking on this link takes you to a random webpage. There appears to be about a dozen or so in all. One of them was an ascii image comprised mostly of 1's & 0's. In the image is the word EUH in the upper left hand corner which appears to be a link that takes you to another random website. There's also the following poem written partially in between the 1's & 0's.

I CAN BE DESCRIBED IN ZEROS AND ONES
IN INPUTS OUPTPUTS CLASSES AND METHODS
I THINK IN SIMPLE IF AND THEN
LOVE IN BITS AND BYTES
SILICONES RUN THROUGH MY HEART
I HAVE MEGABYTES OF SUBROUTINES
AND YOU ARE THE CONSTANT

I've been to what I believe are all of the random sites in the EUH loop. Not sure if they pertain to the arg or if it even is an arg.

If you look up project euh, you'll see that its basically an experiment in modern/multimedia art. I lost a good hour to those pages

[Gem-Chan]

Hey, I'm jumping in on the action, too now that I've did some catching up of my own. Nothing new found, though I am mentioning that no one pointed out the telephone imposed into the center of the page, right behind the suffocating man. It seems pretty arbitrary, but it could be a clue. Maybe phone is the next form of contact we need to make?

------------ADDITION/EDIT-------------

After some random google searching of the phrase "breathe with me", I found it rather noteworthy that a female music artist from the UK named Athena (note that thea is in this name as well) released an albumed in early 2007 titled "Breathe With Me".

I didn't find anything there and I'm thinking it may be coincidence, but maybe someone else can find something in that

------------Second EDIT---------

Thea anagrams to heat. There's a "Club Heat" in the UK. Doesn't seem to be much there either.... Just stabbing beyond the dark
