I just spent about an hour on the phone with my friend trying to explain to him how to send the contents of the cd to me; it didn't work out - he couldn't (for some reason) operate the folders, and just kept sending me shorcuts to the folder names. The only file - the note - that was not in a folder - got through. (Btw, now I think he is even more pissed, but I'm still meeting him tomorrow or Monday). So, the note looks the same, and I bet the other files are too.

trip, I asked him (just for you Smile

) how the stuff was glued etc. He said the envelope (padded, yellow) was attached to the bottom of that counter with clear packing tape, sealed with the same kind of tape, and "Emerson" was written on it (cd) with a black marker.

When I get the cd, I'll take a photo, and I'll upload the files, though they are most likely to be the same as the previous ones at this point.

hi all,

I'm currently studying at Cornell. I'll look up the copies of The Hidden Dimension tomorrow to see if they contain anything.

For those of you new to ARG. These "real world" clues are often distributed in duplicate to allow more than one person to participate, and to increase the chance that every "group" playing has the opportunity to obtain the same information and continue the game.

Chances are strong that 1) another "group" found the Santa Monica clue, or (more likely, since I grew up in that neighborhood) 2) someone who is NOT in the game found it, thinking it was valuable or had some money in it.

The important thing is the need to SHARE the files with other players. The CD files should be posted for others to read, download, decode, or view.

And those who did find them, congratulations on obtaining a cool souvenier of the ARG (perhaps your first of many ARGs).

Btw, the note.jpg most likely implies the fact the CD's are all the same, because it says "I need about a dozen disks".

It seems the person who made the discs was given an envelop with stuff in it (the pictures, legal docs and the note). This person would also be the one who only scanned three of these twenty mentioned legal docs. Is it safe to say these are still somewhere then? We saw that Phillip Gairden went somewhere and took pictures of a heap of (legal) documents. Could these be the (same!) missing documents?

The Emerson CD found at Cornell did not have any wrapped packaging. It was inside a slim blue cd-case, sitting between copy #2 and copy #3 of The Hidden Dimension. I'll probably go back tomorrow with a digital camera to take photos of location and see if there are anymore clues.

Attached is a scan of the Emerson cd frontside.
