This is my idea.
Dina is evidently posting these "dreams" on her website but only to people she wants to view them. I do not believe that she will be hiding .mov files because she would have posted them on her page like before.
Most of the time the links to these pictures e.g. tortoise / Beethoven appear on Dina's posts and on Ethans weblog. Just a thought
But anyways who knows, this things really confusing me at the moment

On Dina's weblog, the image on top of the page says:
"turning and turning... dina nekoda: navel-gazer"
http://dina.thenekodas.com/weblog/
What does that mean?
If you go to Wongmo's young artist showcase here , you can find Dina's "night" mp3. Something else that's interesting, however, is that just above that is one of the pictures, of a guy looking at what appears to be an orange... Perhaps a navel orange? That would make him a navel gazer, would it not?
Could that be just coincidence? Is there a message there? The title of the photo is "futility", and I've tried http://dina.thenekodas.com/futility.html , etc. to no avail...

Did someone still try to enter www.thenekodas.com/webmail/src/login.php?
I have tested withseveralpasswords, as "Sue", "Susan", "Sweet", "carefully"...
(in reference to the poem on dina's space) and others that i don't remember but still have not found!
Anyone tried?
Maybe it's a space reserved for the ARG organisation...
What do you think?

That webmail login is part of most (all?) of the webpages in the game. I'm gussing it's part of the webpage design software. It doesn't even appear to be configured properly to retrieve mail.
I think it's "out of game" stuff.

Don't underestimate the importance of stuff in the directories of the game-sites... These PM's are not just a couple of 12yrold computer freaks... they are some top ranking oficial blah blah blah PM's...
I'll bet my socks on that...

It's just that SquirrelMail is a "real thing"
http://www.squirrelmail.org/
The fact that it's on a bunch of the in game websites, and that when you try to log in you get a server error leads me to believe it's not part of the game.

Just FYI, and I can't remember if it's been dissected before, but the "turning and turning" is a quote from William Butler Yeats, titled "the Second Coming".
Turning and Turning in the widening Gyre
The Falcon cannot hear the Falconer
Things fall apart; the Centre cannot hold
Mere Anarchy is loosed upon the world.
And so on and so forth. Fantastic poem. Nice matrix-y tie in as well.

navel gazing The term navel gazing I thought was quite common and not odd at all. To gaze at ones own navel, is to internalise your thinking, to reflect. So her web pages are all about looking inwards and sorting out the mess in her head.
Just on the Squirrel Mail I also came across one for underscorehosting.com at the same address. Maybe its one of those backdoors where you need a special key to open the door.

Have you noticed how many times Dina mentions the word slate, in text and in .jpeg format? I have looked it up on Websters Thesaurus and I got the following.
Slate
Synonym: Ticket
Entry Word: ticket
Function: noun
Text: 1 a slip giving information (as of ownership, identity, or price) <the price of the iron is on the ticket>
Synonyms label, tag
Related Word card; slip; sticker
2 a card of admission <theater tickets>
Synonyms carte d' entrée
Related Word pass
3 a list of candidates for appointment, nomination, or election <vote the party ticket>
Synonyms slate
Related Word choice; lineup; list
4
Synonyms BALLOT 1, vote
5
Synonyms PASSPORT , key, open sesame, password
Is this a clue? What do you think?

Ok after reading these here is my opinion...
Wongmo = Dr Leo Kane = Fiona Leiphe = ETHAN
I guess Wongmo's music is not really Wongmo's but its his wife Dina's works..And Dina tells that Ethan waffles alot...Wongmo loves it too don't you all think?And Ethan is generally away from home..Which may be because he is in Hawaii..
So here it is 4 passports on desk and 4 Names...What do you think?

hmmm Education is useful!
Today in a philosophy lesson we were going over existentialism.
Up came Tabula Rosa - Blank Slate
Common with the philosopher Camus
something to do with "creating our own reality/meaning"
one of Camus famous books is l'etranger "The Stranger"
Maybe this has some relevance with the stranger following Ethan.
BTW
I'm thinking the person following Ethan has managed to do what we are doing and logged onto his weblog ethan.thenekodas.com, possibly
Leo Kane?
this is just a thought. Above the smiles message is the main message

Hey, all those ists got visas, I bet those projections could have...
And if you're the kind of person who would have four passports, I don't think you'd go to the post office to get yours. Most likely you'd have another source.
