Miha Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 The new era is surely here. I am assuming album will be out in a couple of months, but more likely a month after the first single (if the clues are correct the album is again 42 mins long so it wouldn't make sense to give that clue if it hadn't been finished). Glasto appearance is the bestΒ opportunity for them to premiere a couple of new songs.Β But I would again really say that I think the album will be ALL new material. I just don't see getting old (released) songs redone and put out again. I know what Chris had said but it could be interpreted differently.Β Β Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Crieff Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 I'm far from convinced the signal is actually a melody, I still think it's words (or maybe a number and a word) but it kinda has to be an existing code language because otherwise how do they want us to decipher this?

charliefix Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Hi everyone! This record https://alienradio.fm/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/ARFM-6.mp3 is in Czech. It's not related to space or something, just two children's rhymes, which is kind of weird. They're called 'Ε neΔku, Ε‘neΔku' and 'PolΓ‘mal se mravenΔek'. It doesn't really make sense in english and some words in itΒ are pretty outdated. Here is the rough transition:Β 1)Β Snailing, snailing, stick out your horns, I'll give you coin to buy cheese, And a Groschen for tobacco, A slacking sloven you shall be. 2)Β A little ant got broken, The whole preserve knows about it, At the midnight they called him, An ants' doctor. The doctor knocking on his heart, Then writing a prescription: "Sugar powder three times a day, He'll be a fellow the likes of a lynx". He was given powder per advice, Yet the little ant lied ill, The whole day he was on fire, The whole night he spent weeping. Four were standing at his bed, Fifth one told him "do not cry, I will blow your little pain away, In the morning you'll be fine". He blew at his little pain, Stroked him gently on his head, Hop and healthy little ant, Jumps every morning from his bed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay so I opened the svg file in Illustrator and the ellipses and rectangles (all separate layers) are indeed in a seemingly half-random order: the first layers are the bottom 2 "long" rectagles then all the ellipses and rectangles on the last two rows, but not in a logical order light left to right or right to left or column per column, it seems random then the middle 2 "long" rectangles then the ellipses and rectangles onΒ row 2 and 3, again not in a logical order then the top 2 "long" rectangles then the ellipses and rectangles on theΒ first row, again not in a logical order is there a simple way of converting the file to an animated gif or so that adds all the layers one by one? maybe it shows a pattern or so, idk. No idea how to do it myself, this is actually the first time I've touched a svg file This probably isn't going anywhere and I've put way too much thought in this but hey, it's not like we have something better to do, right? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LVI56 Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Fun to be back for another era. Some of my thoughts/ideas on some of the puzzles. The scrolling message at the bottom: One thing that it led me to is the Wow! Signal and the Arecibo message. The message we sent to space was in binary format, which if laid out on a grid is similar, but the circles are throwing me off to crack it. The bouncing circles on the right side of the page: Is each one a track from the album. 11 tracks, (four filled in) so 4 singles? They move at difference speeds though. Maybe corresponding to track length? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
