Chat what did I miss?

real plaza
#

I saw that too, but I think those marks are the tops of neon gravestones… they line up with neon lights in a few different images

sacred sigil
#

Here’s a thought. I was looking at this image (23).

You know how Tyler has the tattoo that says carpe noctem in the white space between the shapes? This font (twenty one pilots) is super weird and creates some weird spaces. I was wondering if we can make anything else out in it. I’ve included some inverse and rotated images of it to maybe help us see the spaces.

sacred sigil
#

Woooot!

real plaza
#

btw do you know if there are any goner references in the DR?

sacred sigil
#

I don’t think so but I’ll look again. Unless you just count birds as a goner reference. There are birds.

real plaza
#

ive always thought that image 23 was weird but assumed it referred to something before my time

sacred sigil
#

I think it’s just an overcompensate reference but it seems important. And they really want us to see it.

#

Here’s the spreadsheet where I tracked repeating themes in DR. There are 4 pages with birds. 9, 14, 89, and 92

real plaza
#

dude the three eyeballs on the left, if you rotate the image the glare in the eyeballs lines up with the 3 dots on the BF standard black vinyl

#

can i be making that up? if there are three dots, if i resize them but keep them to scale, can i line them up with anything i want to? I am not good with visuals and graphics

#

i might be seeing what i want to see

sacred sigil
#

I have no idea 🤷🏻‍♀️ The whole thing with lining stuff up on the BF cover seems interesting to me but I don’t know what to do with it.

Wondering if the Clancy letter/stay low Lane Boy intro is actually Clancy talking or who? Because it's a quote from a Clancy letter.... But sacarver and lisden (the hosts of the sai Livestream) seem to be the ones saying this?? Am I making sense?

motherofpearl I know your map lining up is important for you, so don’t feel contradicted when I try to point at another direction:
when I lined up Trash I found that the top line that goes through the circles is pointing EXACTLY to the Clancy Way in Trash‘s scales. If we now line up the map to the other lines… what places could they touch which might be a hint (name, location etc.)

I‘m on a short trip in France and I‘ve got only my phone

@sacred sigil Tyler grew up on Gainer street… Gainer —> Goner?? 😵‍💫 me rn

Can one of you post the pic of just the BF cover with the red lines?

lucid valley
#

If you look at the map take in consideration the right vertical line which goes through the goner circle

sacred sigil
#

Well friends I’ve been cooking for hours but I don’t think we’ve gotten anywhere. Maybe the trash eyes lining up with the water droplets and the line pointing to Clancy way was just an Easter egg from back in the day??

#

I also worked on this project for a long time. #1252689799597392014 message I made a Google slides. You can make your own copy so you can move the letters around. It seems like it could be something.

sacred sigil
#

Some of the letters look like other letters if rotated.

real plaza
#

the two angled lines, one from the logo and one from trash's eyes, line up with two roads near clancy way, that was what i noticed

sacred sigil
#

I lined it up like @lucid valley suggested with Trash’s scales. Did you find anything when you lined it up by the streets?

#

It looks like that puts Clancy Way in the goner circle

real plaza
#

yup

#

the red dot is the goner circle

#

clancy way is in there, and the red line going through the circle intersects clancy way at basically the exact spot where the music video was filmed

#

also this neighborhood to the right of the goner circle has a bunch of streets with bird names (can't see them in this screenshot unfortunately)

I think that would be coordinates for the mv for goner with the accordion. That’s the spot on the map that crossed the goner circle when we did our crazy conspiracy thing with the map.

Does anyone know where the houses at the end of the Level of Concern mv are located?

#

Every path I’ve followed with my map theory leads me to Eagle Trace Drive in Westerville, OH. In particular, a house which has been blurred, and a business called Left Brain Professionals (which is next door to the blurred house). I don’t know what it means but I’m putting it out there in case anyone wants to dig.

I wonder if there are similarities btw that song and goner? I can’t cross reference right now but it would be interesting to find out…

tacit topaz
#

So far I have the fact that he's referring to "you" in both songs. He also says "surrounding all my surroundings" -holding onto you "I'm inside-out you're underneath". And in general "I'll be holding onto you" and "I wanna be known by you" are somewhat similar in that the singer (Tyler/Clancy? Nico/Blurry/Dema?) cares about the listener (audience? Loved one? Tyler/Clancy? Nico/Blurry/Dema?)

tacit topaz
# real plaza Idk I haven’t seen it ☹️

Oh and btw it is! So during sai Livestream Tyler sings holding onto you, and he starts screaming "ENTERTAIN MY FAITH" over and over and the "hosts" cut away from him and advertise the box set again. It's super freaky, it's like he's screaming for help and then they censor it 😭

coral nebula
#

I wonder if Nico was the one that took Goner off because it was the only song that directly asks for help to take him out?

"I've got two faces Blurry's the one I'm not
I need your help to take him out"

I’ve never really been able to put together a solid narrative/explanation for all the details in the stream put together to say exactly what the purpose of the stream was or how much control the bishops had or what the siren at the end is and stuff like that

#

There’s also some stuff that feels lightly foreshadowey like being on the boat for heathens/trees being similar to the events at the end of the era after the outside but that could also just be representing an entirely separate thing at the same time

ngl im not good with directions (lol) or maps however i wanted to comb through the streets and neighborhoods near Clancy Way for clues and i noticed the following that may be relevant:

  1. There is a Mulberry Way south of Clancy Way

  2. As for birds and bird related things in proximity to Clancy Way:
    2a. Hawksbeard Drive and Wingstem St to the North
    2b. Eagle Trace, Falcon Trace, Talon Circle, Rookery Way are all east
    2c. Egret Ct, Blue Heron Dr, both south east,
    2d. Waxwing Ct, Mallard Dr and Kingfisher Dr, Kingfisher Ct, and Bald Eagle Ct are all south
    2e. Quail Hollow Way to the west
    2f. I count fourteen bird related streets (thirteen if you don’t count both kingfisher streets) but could have overlooked some.

Things I noticed that may mean nothing but I found interesting:

  1. There is a baseball diamond next to Clancy Way, I imagine because of the school located directly south, but it made me think of regional at best.

  2. To the east of Clancy Way is Adcock Rd. I googled adcock because I wasn’t sure if it was a bird or not and found from Wikipedia “…is an antenna array consisting of four equidistant vertical elements which can be used to transmit or receive directional radio waves”. I included a screenshot for yall. Anyway, first it made me think of the “three lights are lit but the forth ones out” lyric from The Judge which is arguably a stretch. But then duh it clicked, it sends directional radio waves… something about it sits weird with me and

  3. South of Clancy Way is a street called Albion Place, not far from Mallard Drive. Again, googled Albion because I was uncertain if it was a bird and found that it’s an alternative old nickname for Great Britain and derives from a word meaning “white”. Kinda made me think of the concept of Dema but again, a stretch I fear.

  4. Above Mulberry Way are two tree streets: Elm Ct and Birch St. Trees?? idek anymore.

Final thought: what if the lore is built off/inspired by this area of ohio 😭😭

OMG OMG YES THIS IS AMAZING I found a ton of this stuff too, and the lines on the BF cover actually point to some of it! BUT ALSO HOLY MOLY ADCOCK ROAD!!! The antenna tower you can see in the goner video (flashing lights) is for WOSU-TV channel 34, Ohio State’s public tv channel…. And the antenna also hosts a RADIO station called “THE EAGLE” I’ll have to look up the call numbers

AND this tv station on the map is directly between the two top horizontal lines, I’m on my phone I can’t show an image

Maybe the URL ( I constructed out of the 4 pngs) wasn’t wrong too, bc it has led us to the military golf club called „Eagle‘s Eye“… a bird again and now we have also the Eagle Trace…

Another sidebar, it’s kind of funny to me that Clancy Way is named after the author Tom Clancy (the streets in that neighborhood are all authors)

The bird metaphor (beneath the obvious one: bird in a cage etc.) wasn’t decoded yet. So, the new appearance of all these bird sounds AND the street names doesn’t seem random

Was there a question about the HOTY video?

sacred sigil
lucid valley
#

Ah ok, the 4 images were the only pngs among jpgs

#

I am just coming back home from my France trip and wanted to play a little with the unsual brutalism font. I don’t think they are more than just a fancy design choice, but I love visual riddles… so maybe the white space they are building when combined to a picture could show a form

lucid valley
sacred sigil
#

It was 23. The letters are super weird so I had several ideas.
1- Tyler has the carpe noctem tattoo that uses negative space to form letters, so maybe these weirdo letters reveal something in the negative space.

2-(which I didn’t mention) maybe they fit together in some way like a puzzle.

3-some of the letters look like other letters when rotated so I tried that.

All in all I got nothing after playing with them for a long time, so maybe that’s just a weird font and not anything further. If anyone else wants play with them I made a Google slides you can make a copy of. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1HOT1EoCC-Zd8oe7X-_Sq7YRwYdZ45ndoJFFIucCUnZo/edit

# lucid valley But how do we decide whether his tweets are a „nudge“ or nothing

i think the other nudges this era have included blatant codes to solve with BOOKS and PAGES in morse + the blurry activity, or have been direct statements from mark/tyler about where they intend to take the story or era. Tyler might be hinting at future stuff but it doesnt seem like the normal kind of "go back this idea is important" hint, its just additional crypticness for stuff that could happen in the future (in my opinion)

Thinking of goner (lyrically): what if blurryface is saying "I'm a goner somebody catch my breath" (choke on smoke) and "don't let me be gone" is more of blurry pleading with Tyler/Clancy not to completely destroy this part of his mind

This also reminds me, I find it interesting that blurryface "cares what you think" in stressed out and in his line in stressed out, he sings "what I wanna save I'll kill" implying that he wants to save something/someone. And (kind of related) if we can assume that low voice Tyler=blurryface than he also says "used to play pretend give each other different names we would build a rocket ship and than we'd fly it far away, used to dream of outer space but now theyre laughing at the face saying 'wake to you need to make money'".

DR: Why are there 3 very similar photos of Ty&Josh standing in a grass field: 3, 41, 97?

lucid valley
#

What I noticed when going again through all DR photos: there are soo many photos of the both in nature. And we only saw them walking through nature in Navigating. And in his old letters he often was referring to Trench and how different it is from the city. Did we miss something - what was happening before PS - what might be important? Also the bird sounds are implying the importance of nature.

It supports the feeling I had that everyone is so focused on the last seconds of PS and what might come after that we could miss essential hints

Another observation:
almost all photos in nature are static, no movement. Wasn’t Trench motivating him after years in the concrete coffin of Dema? Or is the style just a „cool“ posing?

It almost looks like these oldfashioned photo albums we know from our former generations in black and white, In frozen poses, as if petrified, almost detached from real life, powerless, sad, playing a role without actually believing in it

also going back to the maps and album art I was looking around the internet and found this album art style I’ve never seen before? According to the description it’s a repress release for fueled by ramen’s 25th anniversary. That vinyl does exist and was released in 2021 in silver vinyl, but the album art on discogs looks normal and not like this one. This website has legit reviews online so im just wondering where the hell this album art came from?

I was also able to find the listing you found- that’s the only website that seems to have this different cover advertised- it says it is out of stock but has no reviews of that individual product so it’s unclear if they’ve ever actually sold it

Had another idea to fiddle around with the number 25, but can’t access my files atm to try:
the 9 towers are arranged in a 3x3 grid.
As I mentioned when DR was published all 121 pages can be arranged in a 11x11 grid.
Now: 25 can be a 5x5 grid and that would make it possible to use a Polybius code. There are 25 pages beetween the twins 35 and 59 (including them).
The Polybius code encodes letters to 2 numbers. Maybe someone has the time to look into that?

Hey guys, you know it's possible to hide a message inside an image

like a pixle is made of bits ('1 @ 0, count to infinity')

but that only takes 6 / 8 bits in a pixle if you just use RGB, so the other 2, you can store a letter in

#

and if you look at enough pixles, mebbe a message comes?

I know it's possible, I watched a decoding the LOC video where they did stuff like open images with Notepad and found coordinates, but I couldn't find anything that way, or by splitting the channels, and honestly I don't really know what I'm doing there anyway.

I also like, ran image comparisons on the duplicate images to see if any had something hidden in them, but apparently they were 100% identical to the last bit and again, I don't really have the technical knowledge to do more than that.

I choose this twin set bc of the 25

sacred sigil
#

It seems like if they wanted us to use the twins to figure a puzzle they’d either use all of them or they’d only include one set. So your theory may be right but then we have a couple of other things to solve if that’s the case.

lucid valley
#

I‘m leaving out the pair 64/102 (counting the title as 1). They are not identical.

#

I tried soooooo many things. The fact that there is a „loop“ inside a loop intrigued me

steel berry
sacred sigil
#

I also think they’re very intentional. But as for 64/102 not counting because they’re different…to me that made me pay more attention to it. Like why take that same image and tweak it just slightly?

sacred sigil
lucid valley
#

Wdym with BFs clue image?

lucid valley

I suppose you are using Photoshop and you know what you’re doing, right?

#

I only took a short look into these two (used „Difference“)

sacred sigil
sacred sigil
real plaza
#

just curious if anyone ever lined these two up. i think its so cute

steel berry
#

OK, so this is probably nothing, but I thought it was interesting... I was fixating on the duplicate images again because I don't know when to quit, and I saw that while the true duplicates were the same file size, 64 and 102 are not, which makes sense because they're not truly identical. But then I thought, what if I sort all the files by size and see if there's any other matches? And yes, there are a bunch more that are different images with the same file size.

First up is the hidden forest image on page 48 (image 51), which is the same size as page 36 (image 37) at 2339kb. Next, page 113 and page 114 (images 118 and 119), both at 1528kb. Page 35 (image 36) and 109 (image 113, the infamous DEEF picture) both have a file size of 1399kb, pages 104 (image 108) and 52 (image 55) are both 1051kb, and pages 6 (image 5) and 105 (image 109) are both 466kb. Now admittedly, when I right click and look at properties, the more detailed file sizes are slightly different, BUT the size on disk is always identical.

Of course, this is almost certainly a coincidence. After all, there's nothing particularly strange about different files being the same size, my Paintshop Pro browser cache file is the exact same size as the first page (image 0). But the fact that I can't be 100% sure it's nothing is why I'm throwing it at you lot.

steel berry
#

And I've just realised that image 37 aka page 36 is one of the true duplicate images!

sacred sigil
#

Yeah the dupes are
36/60
38/49

64/102 are the same base image but have been edited to be different

#

If we just take these 25 images with the 4 doubles it’s just CYAN. I see no reason to make it more complicated in this moment. We have „Claim cyan“ as an anagram hint.

gilded hemlock
#

Anagram for i am clancy

real plaza
#

Wasn't there some thing about an image with DEEF and DEEF being color code for cyan

real plaza
lucid valley
#

I am Clancy -> anagram: Claim cyan

#

Why 25????

#

RU serious?

#

There are exactly 25 images between one of the double pairs. That was my starting point

gilded hemlock
lucid valley
#

Hm… the pics are all RGB and not CMYK. Maybe converting them to cmyk and look around the cyan amount for the doubles could lead to 4 numbers. An IP has 4 number parts (0-255)

#

The cmyk colors are also based on one byte (0-255)

gilded hemlock
#

How could i do that?

lucid valley
#

Aaaah, it would be so easy for me, but I‘m not at my laptop

#

Someone with photoshop around?

gilded hemlock
#

I was trying to download it hehe

lucid valley
#

But then again: which part of each photo should be color picked… idk

gilded hemlock
#

I think red

lucid valley
#

I believe that makes no sense: there are many color profiles and each gives different cyan values.
It must be something different

gilded hemlock
#

maybe taking out cyan values?

#

claiming them?

rustic summit

OK I have photoshop - tell me what to do

gilded hemlock

here's a difference for DR 1

I told u something wrong: cmyk is not byte based but RGB

There is a RGB version of cmyk cyan with these values 0-255-255

#

I‘m in a meeting 😥
Pls try thinking of other connections with cyan first. When I‘m back home I have access to the files

# gilded hemlock

I think it makes more sense to first concentrate on the doubles or the pics between them, the 25

real plaza
#

Or rather, everyone else is, I am watching Dark right now… maybe later lol

quasi vale
#

I will open the doubled pages and mess around with cyanish shades

sacred sigil
# lucid valley

This seems big because there is 14 and 25, two numbers we’ve been given several times.

Cyan is the inverse of red, so any image with red will invert to cyan.

gilded hemlock
#

Good point

#

So

#

Just invert them?

#

I'll do it after some food

quasi vale
#

idk what im doing but maybe theres something in the yellow? lol

#

I feel like changing around the colors won't do anything, though. We have deep fried every image in all possible ways. If any color or pixel combination was off, we would have noticed regardless of what specific color it is

rustic summit
#

Potentially if you pull the cyan out in just the duplicate images it might make something in the DR puzzle pop more though?

quasi vale

There is no inch of blue in the image I sent now though

Helpless idea: there was an old photography technique called cyanotype (blueprint) that reduces a picture to only blue and whites. I know you guys tried all different combinations in figma, but when all pics are reduced to blue and white there could appear new ways to combine them…

I've been gone from DR for a bit what have I missed?

cinder steppe
#

So was watching a doco today and noticed the same black spot on a roll of video film
I’ve seen the debate over this DR image being film or not and it is 100% from a film roll
The spot is called a perforation

This has probably been discussed to death but felt I needed to chime in and say this is strange seeing as it’s the only image with that perforation. There are other DR images with static and lighting that look like they are from film too (which we have discussed anyway)

But my point: this has to be significant to some degree seeing as it is the last photo in the DR (121) and there is so many unknowns about where this was taken / context

That’s what I thought as well (that it looked like a mountain) It looks like a warped Polaroid picture

Yes to Polaroid. The mention of mountain was just to describe it for you

But it’s really interesting that it mentions specifically that the descriptions are written by a third party… who is that third party…

Not sure who the third party is but likely someone at the merch store

A discount code? Do you remember what was the code and for how much off?

US having street names like this always catches me off guard

I wouldnt even consider thinking that a letter could literally be a street name

It’s not really a letter. It is an abbreviation for West

Hey guys. So I am trying something with DR but do any of you if there is a better app to use for lining up pictures... what I have to use right now only allows up to 10 so I'm having to the images and keep working but if I make a mistake I have to START ALL OVER and it's FRUSTRATING... if anyone has a better alternative that will allow me to line up as many pictures as I want and still be able to reposition them please let me know. Your help would be greatly appreciated 🫶

has anyone looked into the alternate tracklist at all? i was looking back through DR and wondering if there's a reason they chose to include it

gilded hemlock
#

Emer has a theory about an inverse tracklist and how the songs played last to first as presented in that image tell a different story, fun read

I'll give it a read when I get a chance

Question to all puzzlers who have been heavily involved:
did you find further pages connecting to this part?

leaden temple
# lucid valley

Isn't there another page with the word Overcompensate written on it? Would it possibly overlay with 74?

#

So I'm starting to wonder... what if there's a way to unlock FULL versions of these images... what if these are cropped and that's why we're having such a hard time

#

Okay so you know how this yellow image off the Dema sight overlays with that letter to spell we are banditos?

#

Like this

#

Has anyone looked into the letters those numbers are by and if they spell anything?

#

I still can't help but feel like this actually might be a qr code or something and it's just really difficult to solve

#

@lucid valley 93 is technically the same image as 3 and could potentially overlay with it like this maybe?

#

Holy shit maybe other people noticed this but I just noticed the FPE violation code number is cut off on here

#

Also the M on Overcompensate looks kinda like Clancy's mask

# lucid valley

This is what I've got on that section. I don't have the page numbers written on them yet, but I believe there are twelve pages in this picture (so far)

leaden temple
#

I'm working on something similar! That image of Tyler and Josh seems to be the jumping board to work from

#

Also something I've notice on 93 is that this black square looks like it could fit with the cut in on the Vessel album cover

#

Wait does somebody have the Blurryface header that lead us to the PS teaser?

#

I just noticed something

# real plaza Ooh I found it before! Let me see if I can do it again….

Thank you for coming through! It was a busy few days for me and then I couldn’t find it. This is another version of it without the Spanish subs. https://youtu.be/8W8zy-LA8Fk?si=-IXyZWfMnvgQOJjn

Tyler Joseph and Josh Dun talk with Cruise and Julia in Detroit. Joseph describes how he finds inspiration in fantasy movies and the meaning behind Sahlo Folina in Banditos. Unfortunately, no hibachi chicken was served.

She was not very good at interviewing. We need follow up questions!

Speaking of interviews, have they done any for Clancy? Other than the one I think for Sirius fm… I don’t think I’ve seen any

From previous discussions I think they said Tyler and Josh did a couple before the album release but after the album release there were just a couple with Josh only.

I went on a whole meaningless deep dive unfortunately I don't know if im actually insane? or if at the time these photos lined up for me

#

I wish the font thickness of the violation codes matched better 😦

#

I hadn't thought to line up the yellow tape with the light shining on the tower. Even the red and black match up!

leaden temple
#

Okay guys so the more we look the more we find that matches up right? What if there are multiple different puzzles here. Also I've been noticing how a lot of the images can be overlayed... I'm still not giving up on the idea that this actually could be a qr code. And also you know the FPE violation code and how it's in the new dema sight url? And Tyler's been wearing the shirt? Maybe we have to find the same number of pictures as there are numbers that match up, line them up in the same order as the FPE code and put that in the url instead of the FPE code?

jaunty thorn
#

You think it’s possible that there’s more to discover?

jaunty thorn
#

How do we know if Tyler had put even more? do you think it might be intentional?

leaden temple
#

I don't think they gave us DR for nothing. And I think it's very odd that Clancy only has 13 songs... it feels like we're missing something still

jaunty thorn
#

I guess.. I wonder how often Tyler will refer back to that. Because we did find the code when blurryface tweeted

#

like we did find something in the DR, do you think he’ll use them again for something different?

I'm not sure to be honest. I guess we'll just have to see 🤷‍♀️

Hey all! Has anyone else noticed that 'ø' symbol or the 'empty set' symbol in mathematics was introduced by the Bourbaki group?

#

Specifically Andre (the only bishop who's name actually comes from the Bourbaki group)

lucid valley
#

Are u serious?

#

😂😂

regal oxideBOT
leaden temple
lucid valley
#

That’s the basis of the lore since Vessel
Ø = empty set = vessel
„Just break the cycle in half“

#

Nietzsche:
„Stell ab das irdene Gefäß und eile frei zum Himmel“ (Set down the earthen vessel and hasten freely to heaven)
Vialism

frank phoenix
#

But \emptyset doesn't denote every set - just the sets containing no elements. So then, would \emptyset only denote available vessels?

lucid valley
#

I don’t get your thought here. A set of available vessels wouldn’t be empty. What is meant is that each available vessel is like an empty set. Is that clearer? Or see it like so:
1 available vessel = 1 empty set
The set which can be build by containing all empty sets is not an empty set bc it contains „something“. Set theory is different from normal math. „Empty“ doesn’t mean 0.

frank phoenix
#

True; that is what I was saying. The set containing the empty set is not itself empty. lol maybe I worded it badly. I didn't mean \emptyset denotes the set containing all sets containing no elements. I meant that each set that contains no elements is the empty set, but there exist sets that are nonempty. Hence, if our hypothesis is correct, \emptyset denotes a given vessel if and only if that vessel is available

Does anyone know if the original Figma Jam still exists? I would really like to see all the different ways people were going at this puzzle from the beginning.

#

@sacred sigil I just found your google doc of the images, this is so cool thank you for compiling all of that!

#

The inverted SnapBack photo is beautiful I think I want a print of that version

lucid valley
#

Guys, I made an interesting find, which could hint to more… maybe the key to a full ARG we missed in the DR.
I need your opinion whether it is a stretch or the beginning of a new ARG

#

Page 29 always made me curious. These eyes, all these eyes also on other pages. Then the sentence „right in front of your eyes“

#

I think I decoded the eyes on page 29… it’s morse code

#

To explain my discovery:
there is tape connecting SINGLE photos (connecting to one letter) and there is also tape on top of some. I set a single photo as dot and a double photo as dash. The tape on top marks the beginning of a letter

#

Then there is page 23, where we see two times
2 eyes and 3 eyes,
which could translate to
IS or MO (../… or —/—-)

#

I then had the idea that MAYBE we should find A WHOLE SENTENCE.

#

First I wanted to try it myself but I believe it’s more fun to do it with you!

#

Then there is page 62 also with overlapping eyes:

#

What do you think?

#

Annotation: I‘m aware that in p29 I counted a photo as . or - and on p23 I counted the eyes

#

# lucid valley

So I have to ask, I notice that you're not counting the cover even though it states in DR that it's the first page. Is there a reason why? Because this page 24 for me if you count the cover

lucid valley
#

I‘m counting the cover and that’s 23.

I haven't given up yet.
But when the eyes are so important, the code becomes more difficult.

It is difficult to count the eyes in Tyler's photos. I have now decided to consider them for now if an iris is recognisable.
Any ideas? Or do you think it's a waste of effort?
I marked the rows and columns to make it easier to discuss it.

gilded hemlock
#

Could the pairs be related? Like the pair of eyes?

#

This is pretty interesting honestly

timber marten
#

idk morse code but i like the way you think

sacred sigil
#

The eyes are very difficult to count. I want to look more at the tape…like maybe the eyes are just drawing us to notice that page and not necessarily the eyes themselves.

#

I feel like it’s…”right in front of our eyes” sigh

Maybe the direction of their gazes has something to do with it? It may also be worth noting that in 2, 3, and maybe 5 Tyler is pulling down his lower left eyelid

Okay so back to messing with the picture of the vultures in DR I flipped it. And not only am I still pretty sure there's something written there, but the more I play with it the more it looks like there is a person in this image

#

I know everyone said it's from Trench era but they wouldn't have included it in DR if it wasn't important. Almost everything else in DR is images and lyrics we've never seen before

leaden temple
#

This could have been one of the things we missed

but the small figure is definitely torchie

# leaden temple

The trial maybe? Bishops watching through vultures. Josh being the judge, we know how many forms Josh has and one could be The Judge so he can finally set clancy free (only problem with this is that clancy is the only one able to see torchbearer guidance, interesting stretch nonetheless hehe)

I'm just throwing out what I'm seeing in some of this stuff. And just because the original doesn't have anything doesn't mean Tyler and Josh have not added to the original image. Most of DR has been tampered with

I think it’s worth noting how much bird poo is in this photo.

Thank you for the effort. As is saw that I had to think of braille which is kinda ironic that we are counting eyes. It would be g f f g f f
Blank g g c f g

So nothing I think.
Or is there a chord Progression in any of the Songs like that? 😅

lucid valley
#

Thank YOU for your effort! I had actually already given up on this branch, despite my initial enthusiasm. The depiction in my graphic looks like Braille but if you arrange the dots differently it immediately loses this connection.

#

Fun fact regarding the chord progression:
assuming the placement of the eye image in DR follows along the songs it is connected to Next Semester which could be played G F in the verse

sacred sigil
leaden temple
#

Like he specifically mentioned that the Ukulele part in Next Semester basically loops back into itself

#

Has anyone else noticed that there are dots and dashes up here on page 13 of DR? At first I thought the dots were Bishop's eyes but then I noticed the lines... I would have no way of decoding if it is, but could it be possible this could be morse code?

#

@lucid valley @real plaza

#

Does this make any sense to you guys?

lucid valley
#

There was someone mentioning it (didn’t remember who) and I checked it but it’s not morse.

#

——
Has anybody already organized/sorted all DR images regarding their connections to songs?

#

Yesterday I had made other grids (12x10 and 15x8, leaving out the title) to see whether this way I could discover any patterns but I couldn’t find anything new

#

#

The left light ray could be a headlight (with a distorted beam) and also looks a bit like an eye. But the right ray looks more like sparks (NS mv?)
Dunno what to do with it.

The VI at the top could be a part of lyrics because Ty uses it to say Verse 1

Wondering what would happen if you cut those bits of tape out of the image so there were transparent gaps, and placed the whole thing over some of the lyrics pages.
