 		PhobiaFilms and B, seeing as you are guests, I thought I might give you a heads up on out posting glitch. When you post and are brought to a white page, it is simply a problem with redirecting you back to the thread after submitting a post. Once arriving at this blank page, I usually hit the back button twice (once to get to the page you used to post, the second to get back to the thread) and then refresh the thread to see my new post.

No worries though!

On wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RT-11 , Morris, D is credited along side RT-11 v3 under release history. The release date of RT-11 v3 is Feburary 1977... RT-11 is a real time operating system associated with the PDP-11

Food for thought...




The article has been tweaked to add morris d...... sorry really bad information...


This has already been discussed in another thread.

I just wanted more concrete evidence of the actual notes in case they are important and I was able to do so with the melodic spectrogram. It was just a litte hard to tell with the waveform spectrogram (ie the 50Hz fluctuation)

I agree with your points, though. The pattern is probably more important and the notes won't play any part and in the end, this is just a mystery that cannot be solved yet.

The problem I see here though is that we're essentially dealing with something effectively analog vs digital... we don't have specifics, we only have approximates.
1) The file is compressed and lossy
2) The tone covers a range of frequencies
3) The ambient noise is increasingly noisy and the tones waver

If it were a raw wav file, and the sound clearly indicated a specific frequency or frequencies, there may be more to work with. The fact that we're dealing with 'relative' analog data is why I think the pattern is more important than notes or frequencies. How do the tones relate to each other? Because we have no solid basis to work on their specifics.

From what I can analyze...
* the tones are based on 50hz steps
* there are 8 tones
* each tone follows the same base waveform - adjusted for frequency, and varied/stretched in length or range
* interference over the tones increases from beginning to end
* the difference in frequency steps over the 8 tones appears to form a line pattern very similar to that of the golden ratio were it to be depicted in the same manner.

Personally, so far that's all I believe is relevant. I could be wrong of course, but all this detailed analysis of musical notation and what the tone waveform/spectrogram shape looks like - just seems fruitless. Like making animals out of clouds. But that's just my opinion Wink

 		Background Audio Detected ?
When the Braegen14.dat file was first introduced to the viral, I attempted to record the audio by connecting one computer to another through the "LINE IN" inputs ...
However, as soon as I hit record (before I entered the correct file path), this was the audio that was recorded:
http://rasgold.blogspot.com/2010/06/success.html

I need some help with this! It is the "original" file. No matter how I tried to upload it on any site (I even sent it through my email) I kept getting a message: "The file you have tried to upload is empty."

Or, in the case of Unforum: "Tried to upload empty file"

I was finally able to upload the audio clip, but I have no idea why the site "scariestthingieversaw" would have such feedback before entering the file path.

SERIOUSLY! ... The audio portion of the file is Un-Edited!

Anyone?

I'm a little confused as to what happened here? Have you been able to recreate the events and get the same result?

I think the reason behind this is because the website is not actually an operating system on a real computer.
It is basically a website made to simulate a PDP-11 computer interface.

It may look, react and sound like a vintage interface system, but it is still just a website that doesn't actually contain folders that you can open in the traditional sense of the word.
Im guessing that when you try to "upload" the Braegan14 file, you're not really "uploading" the file...You're probably just accessing a stream of information that is being delivered through a "simulated" graphic that looks like a file.

 		Stream
Sound
So if the sound is streaming from a different source and isnt uploaded to the website, in theory shouldnt we be able to track the source website its coming from? It has to be somewhere on the internet and if its not there on thescariestthing, then there must be a website connected to it? Would this website be what were looking for?

 		This may have been discussed...
But it puts me in mind of an echocardiogram I've had done on my heart, as well as 'Close Encounters of the Third Kind' (which is pretty obvious, considering who is involved.)

No....... There has to be an actual file on the STIES servers for the flash simulation to reference. The icon in the folder on the desktop doesn't even reference the actual file because all that happens when you click on the icon in the folder is you get a message that there is no supporting application and the simulation isn't extensive enough that we could associate the proposed file with an application to play it using this method. However, in the PDP-11 simulation that is running on the desktop, you are able to execute the file.

When you type in .EXEC EXPNCV, all it really does in the flash file (OOG) is execute a command within the flash file to bring up a prompt for the path to the file (IG). Once the correct path is entered, the flash file (OOG) then references an actual audio file on the STIES servers and said file is played, seemingly by the PDP-11 simulation running on the desktop (IG).

When someone rips the file off of the site (as opposed to just recording it from their stereo mix using Audacity), they get that file that is stored away on the STIES servers. So they would be downloading an actual file to their computers. This is why it is so curious that his computer is telling him that the file is empty.



If I understand what you posted RasGold, does this make sense to you and am I right?

...really? Clever how the "Unedited audio" seems to fade out in the end.

 		uh hello? anyone figured it out??!
I have figured it out...
ok so I used VLC & got some results it's morse code!!! I increased the bass , hightened the pitch & raised the speed I can hear it and it sounds exactly like morse code!! now to translate it Note: it may be backwards due to the speed of the audio...
