Liebkind 2044 My attention was drawn to this link the other day: http://liebkind2044.blogspot.co.uk/
It has a countdown timer that seems to be counting down to sometime March 19th and a bunch of cryptic/puzzly stuff. Something should be happening in a couple of days...

strange characters, if taken to be one to one match to letters, can be translated as:

The LunarLabs website says

Thank you all for showing so much interest in our project! We are looking forwards to sharing more details with you as we get closer to our launch. We will be giving updates here, but also keep an eye out for the development diaries written by our world-class team.
- Barry Li
but the "Development Diaries" only show

Coming soon!
I will never understand why people actually set up a countdown only to lead to a site that has not been finished when the countdown ends...

Hi!
I am new here. My former professor from Brunel University posted the link to the countdown on his Facebook wall back in February.
Today he forwarded us to this thread!

The "Development Diary" page also has "help" hidden (181 times).

Hi! Looks like fun & there's a bit of hidden text (in between the blurb) on the News page, maybe leading to whomever is asking for help:

Barry Li with one enormous HELP

EDIT: This is the picture from the blog.
Any ideas on that?

It was decoded in the second post in this thread. Have tweeted them to point out the slight coding issues and will see if we get a response.

As I am just coming into this I wanted to clarify one thing. When the LunarLabs site first went live was the blurb under the main news page signed Barry Li or was the Barry Li part hidden within the text as it is now?
Random thought....If it was signed Barry Li, and he was an employee at one point, maybe we can try a barry@lunarlabs email address.
Edit to Add:
I just shot off an email asking if there was a Mr. Li employed at Lunar Labs. I sent the email to both Maria and Barry. I just received a message delivery failure for the barry email, so that's a no go. We'll see what Maria says.

I'm fairly certain that it was signed Barry Li because I remember wondering why he wasn't mentioned on the Contact page.
I shot Maria a tweet. She was pretty responsive on Twitter last night.

Boo. Not the response I was hoping for. From my inquiry about Barry:

Hi!
I am sorry, but there is no one named Barry Li working at Lunar Labs.
Best,

Quite the same answer as the one I got for my remark about her blog:
Quote:
Hi,
I guess with blog you mean the LUNAR homepage? Hope you like it!
Best,
Maria
My reply:

Hi Maria,
of course I meant the LUNAR homepage.
I'm quite excited about what you three are working on.
You're not allowed to tell me any further details, are you?
By the way, who wrote the homepage and is responsible for its content?
Yours,
