changed title
i was there tonight...showed up super super late and missed a ton of stuff
when i showed up at the gallery, media peeps were being kicked out: i'm informed they were asking too many "inappropriate" questions
there was a pretty opera singer who was dressed in yellow who came with the CEO but something must have happened because he ditched her and drove off
i was swabbed by some guys in lab coats who asked a bunch of weird questions...such as urination duration and if my family had a list of weird diseases
and they had a bunch of samples to try
thebruce took video of some of the interactions
and i tweeted during the event: you can follow the tweets @kulturvulturz
eta: oh, there was a packet they gave us that was mostly meta stuff...but two biz cards: one with the ceo's email...do you guys have that already?

haha i shall have to read your tweets. Thanks for taking part. That must have been awesome and creepy at the same time.
From what I can gather, we only have the CEOs Twitter - https://twitter.com/ChetGetram
Feel free to share the email, or even send him a message and let us know?

I posted a brief overview article earlier today
http://4dfiction.com/2012/03/drugs-are-bad-bring-on-the-zombie-apocalypse/
And I was in attendance from the beginning... Lots of good stuff It was a well planned and executed event. Just gotta go over everything again for a recap article.
Lots of pics, a bunch of videos (hopefully decent quality).
Suffice to say - there seems to be much drama in ByoLogyc land!
Definitely had a lot of fun tonight
cyng, ya missed out! hehe Good to see you again though there..n stuff

Awesome I'm late getting in on this, but as a Toronto resident with a love for the Fringe Festival, I am so excited to attend future events and watch the experience unfold!

Check out their Flickr.
Wow, quite the event. Can only partake online and no live events for me, but I'm impressed by what they're doing! Quite the turnout, and I love the props and immersion.

Hey all, haven't checked in on the ARG scene since metacortechs but I got wind of this one and I'm excited to check it out. I live in downtown TO, hopefully I can check out some of the meatspace fun.
Anyway I noticed that when I subscribed to the byologyc mailing list the auto reply had a vcard attached to it and I haven't seen anyone mention it. Here's the details. The address is bogus and obviously the postal code isn't legit but here it is.

Interesting... there is a Marlow Ave, but yeah the postal code is invalid.
My video from the anniversary party is almost done. Been hard getting time to sit and work on it, but hoping to get it complete for this weekend.
That opera performance... still sends shivers down me spine =)

Looking forward to that video
I mentioned this to a friend who pointed out that Josh Matlow is a Toronto city councillor for ward 22. No idea how that could be relevant but it was news to me.

This has to be one of the most expensive, realistic and immersive ARGs I have ever seen.
But since I don't live in Toronto, I fear I cannot participate.
I bid you all a farewell.
Farewell.

They're about half funded, and have just over a week to go to reach $20,000. If you haven't donated, consider it! (and it's not just for people in the area, though being able to attend the live events is a big plus )
