Exotic Caffeine, a conversation on the nature of XM with Edgar Allan Wright

NL1331, a hearse? A brief discussion with Edgar Allan Wright

As I was drinking my coffee today, it occurred to me that Exotic Matter works kind of like caffeine. I really don't feel it, but it slowly heightens my performance.  What is the true effect of XM.  And also, what of 1331.  Perhaps the source of XM was not technological in nature.  I saw 1331 and I see a hearse.  Could an infused body have been transported in it?  Is that the secret?

These are the stills I got from this weeks Ingress Report.  Some are flashes while others were just plain intriguing.

Do we have any verified glyphs and glyph messages from portals in nations where non-English languages are most common? I'd be interested in knowing whether the human-language gloss is always English, or whether CONTEMPLATE JOURNEY OUTSIDE is glossed as CONTEMPLA VIAJAR AFUERA. I'd be very interested in knowing whether the order of glyphs changes (that is, whether there are places where you can get OUTSIDE JOURNEY CONTEMPLATE but never CONTEMPLATE JOURNEY OUTSIDE, for example).

I'd like to take this opportunity to kindly ask the community for feedback on my Niantic History series. I'd like to know what you all enjoyed and what I need to better work on as an archiver of the Niantic story. Please leave your thoughts down below for me to better review myself. Thank you for your time.

Today with a little inspiration from JoJo Stratton  post about material not being released by an official Niantic source unless a puzzle was solved or digging deeper into other media I started to dig into what Susanna Moyer  was saying when she said “Snow white, Poison apple, suspended life, snowflakes and blood..”  I had been wanting to do this, but never got around to it, thank you JoJo Stratton  for the little push that was needed. Well I started doing Google searches based on the quote which led me finally read the Brothers Grim original story.  This did not turn up anything, but then I remembered about Susanna Moyer  saying that Operation Snow White was possibly set up to stop the creation of AI.   So for the heck of it I Did a google search for Operation Snow White Artificial Inelegance.  This then led me to Alan Turning and his “suicide” by a “poisoned apple”.  This I remembered being discussed before, but it was the suicide thing that intrigued me.  The reason this intrigued me...

So Essex agents - here is a little game - have there been any materials (audio, video, documents) released by official Niantic sources that was ONLY released via solving a puzzle or digging deeper into another media - meaning there was never a PAC board released, never a mention on a g+ official account, etc. Now, I know there have been materials that were found early, but then eventually released through an official source - those do not count.  What I am getting at, are there materials that if a person only read the board and the g+/twitter accounts they would not find.... I know of two (at least I believe they were never released) - but I am curious... has Niantic always, in the end, leaked the story elements...

What was Lynton-Wolfe doing with the captured Mind Units? Niantic/Resistance scanners were designed from the start to enable the capturing of Mind Units, and ADA seems intent on leveraging that system to impose her vision of the Singularity upon us. What did Calvin want with Mind Units? Quote: "I am harvesting XM, insights, emotions, understanding." [embed]http://www.nianticproject.com/?id=sc221a[/embed]

I've been thinking about ADA, Turing, Jarvis, and Simulacra, and I've come up with a sort of theory.  My thought was that Turing discovered the 13Magnus ritual of Simulacra.  He thought he could use this ritual, but instead input an AI into the body, creating a Human/AI.  After he died, ADA remained.  I believe ADA was built off of previous AI, so her basic functions would have still been programmed by Turing.  I feel as though ADA is trying to complete the experiment started by Turing.  As for Calvin.  He knows of the ritual, and is using it to not put an AI into a simulacrum, but another human all together, creating immortality.

Headscratchers time! Here are some thorny questions I've been thi king about. We knew, roughly, the projected consequences of factional dominance of the two previous anomaly series. Huloung Transglobal reports this time seem to give a more hazy view of our future. If Kl-ADA's plan is successful by a small margin, will that be the end for Hank? That seems strange, as if our Intel is good he is headed to perform a desperate Dark XM experiment which may preclude that. Similarly, even if Kl-ADA fails- it's more than possible >500 million MU have been captured during this anomaly already. Why would she be slowed down? And seriously, what on Earth is Jarvis up to? Wasn't he the one behind Cassandra? For someone so alarmed by ADA, he has been taking entirely too little action.

This weeks ingress report I was able to find these three images hidden.  Other images that were hidden where intel map screenshots of the fields from this weekends anomaly. 

Originally shared by Felicia Hajra-Lee Had an impulse, sat down at the computer, and this emerged. ===================================================== Bobby felt good in the back of the Uber as it rolled towards Arlington, Virginia. It was the beginning of his new life.  He’d miss William and Mary.  He’d miss the Frat.  Well, most of it.  All but one night of it. But the more miles and days and security clearances he could put between himself and that night, the better, and this ride was the first step.  He felt as good as he could. The sick feeling was ebbing back, like  a wave.  It came in waves.    It was controllable.  Except when there was a trigger like a surprise view of the ocean. Then it twinged back.  He stuffed it down. He had to be crisp today.   He had no idea why a company like IQTECH was interested in him. He wasn’t an engineer. He wasn’t a scientist. He wasn’t anything that they said they were looking for on their website or on the interview parameters. So why him?  T...

Edgar Allan Wright dropped by the Operation Essex hangout and looking for two documents. Devra's initial objection to testing fields on the public http://niantic.schlarp.com/investigation:audio#the_green_ones and Hank Johnson's Afghanistan Debriefing http://commondatastorage.googleapis.com/pac/IB/02/item/JohnsonDOD1.png Old questions are rearing their heads again. Thoughts? 

I must say that I am shocked by Devra's announcement today. Certainly, I had heard the rumors, but I did not believe them. This is not the Devra I knew. This is not the Devra who I had believed fled the Niantic Project at CERN when she learned that Lynton-Wolfe and Jarvis were contemplating or in fact carrying out experiments on unsuspecting people. What has happened to her?  Or, I must ask, is the situation for desperate than I had thought? What was her progression? How did she get to this point?

Just for fun: "There's Something About Olly!" Have any movie mashup ideas? Originally shared by Kelly Kolton When Oliver Lynton-Wolfe goes to a bar, the girls can't help themselves. Join me at the virtual bar for the "Ingress Happy Hour" video hangout, Tuesdays at 8:00 pm CDT. Leave a comment to receive an invite.

A new way of looking at the Niantic Project website As part of working on the ADA (for programmers) project, the first thing we needed to do was collect any information about her that we could, starting from the beginning. Trying to go through all of that info started getting... tedious. Early on after I'd joined Essex and started looking over the info from the original website, I found code in the HTML source that I could use to display the info in a way that would be much easier to navigate than the board itself. I started work on it back then and got it functional, but when I realized it would be incredibly useful now, I decided to go back and "finish" it. I put that in quotes because given that I do it for a living, it's nowhere near what I'd consider a "finished" website. But it's readable, and it makes going through the info SO much faster. ADA project aside, it's a really fast way to go through and look for anything. Or like my friend is d...

Hubert Farlowe suggested we look deeper into the Doc.  Here are the screen grabs of all the frames in which a cloud or field appear.  They should be in order, if not,  I do have them numbered in the file name.

Found the source of the background image found in a frame of today's Ingress Report, which can be found here:  http://seanlanders.net/work.html (You have to scroll a lot to reach it.)  Sean Lander's work, called the Circumnavigator (2012), was an interesting choice for a backdrop.  Further work on the matter can be found here:  https://plus.google.com/102038124272991225590/posts/JcuaVyZ9f5m And the original set of images found in this week's Ingress Report can be found here:  https://plus.google.com/+ThomasArteagaZyn/posts/j3iHutM3LHv #OperationEssex  #FightForTruth #SeekTruth

The books are trying to tell us something.

Several images found in this week's Ingress Report: https://plus.google.com/105211554081025512763/posts/8tXofkmRLgM There is more to be found, but this was all that I could extract on mobile. Could this potentially lead to a new comic? Only time will tell.
