This was an excerpt taken from an IMDB post concerning a subliminal audio message hidden in the Halloween image on whysoserious.com
alright, bare with me here, there will be some technical audio mumbo-jumbo in this explanation...
so noticing the candle is supposedly getting lower, i decided to search for other hidden stuff...alas, no hidden text, but i cranked the audio with my headphones on and heard some really faint spikes in the audio. remembering the Scavenger Hunt, i figured they could be blips and bloops (i.e. Morse Code).
so i routed the audio from the Line Out of my computer into my Pro Tools rig and recorded the audio coming from the site. it was all scrambled (basically white noise) but using some creative tools i was able to 'strip' the noise out, leaving only the spikes i heard!! granted i had to add a lot of gain to the remaining spikes, and translating Morse Code is a friggin' pain (luckily i refreshed the page upon recording so i knew where to start).
as i'm typing this, i realized i should include a snapshot so it makes sense:
here
it reads:
P R O V E R B S 2 4 1 9 2 0
i grew up Catholic, clearly it's a Bible verse, right?? didn't take me long to figure out it was Proverbs 24:19-20. now check THIS...
Fret not thyself because of evil men, neither be thou envious at the wicked:
For there shall be no reward to the evil man; the candle of the wicked shall be put out.
that's...friggin...insane...
i'm really behind schedule now, i've been at this all morning. i'll be around, if there are any thoughts.
