5th email from Spearman - "Able and willing?" (Images)

If we are to send a message to the world, it must be something we can all do, something we all have in common - I'm guessing it'll be something like a profile picture on facebook, twitter, perhaps even this forum?!

a search of Dawkins web finds this http://forum.richarddawkins.net/search.php and I gotta go now good luck all xxx

oh feck and you have to type in spearman in the search bar - dunno what it leads to

For the record, the new Lox email...

I KNOW THIS IS THE SPEARMAN THREAD. DON'T SHOOT ME.

is referring to Russian Roulette. Does our email refer to any Derren shows?

What about the one with the priceless pictures? What were the names of those 2 artists?

so ours could also connect to an episode of something? or are we looking too samll on the internet? lots of images in newspapers/bilboards/leaflets/graffiti etc...

Google images should be high on our list of places to look seeing as google maps was needed for our last test

That's what I'm thinking. Everything so far's related to an episode/show.

Good thinking...

Spearman wrote:I've put it where many other people also put their images.

Could Spearman be referring to an art gallery, perhaps? Or do we think he's used the term "images" to imply it's a digital image?

You obviously know the ep I mean - I think they did freaky pictures of cats.

should try searching for backwards spellings of everything as well... god the internet is big

whats the name of the episode with the priceless pictures?? x

Right.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trick_or_Treat_(TV_series)

Series 1, Episode 2.



The subject participates in a ventriloquism show where he becomes bound to the dummy. When the dummy is put in its trunk, the subject finds he cannot see. Also featured are the Chapman Brothers with Adrian Searle (an art critic for The Guardian) and Brown’s paying with paper routine in New York.

The Chapman Brothers - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chapman_Brothers

The artists were Jake and Dinos Chapman and the image was Arachnokitty. That one?

Are we to assume it's one of "The Specials" if theirs is as opposed to the Trick of the Mind & Trick or Treat?

Bingooooooooooo.

Hmmm.

Séance made people choose pictures on the screen:

The show attempted to involve the television audience with interactive activities, the first being to identify one of the members of the suicide pact by looking at photographs. The 12 pictures were shown on screen in a set pattern, with half of them in colour and half black and white. The viewer was instructed to choose one of the colour images that they "feel a connection with". Brown then directed the viewers in a movement pattern between the photographs (for example, move left or right to one of the adjacent black and white photographs). The positioning and movement instructions were carefully planned to ensure that no matter which photograph was initially chosen the viewer would finish on the picture of "Jane". Ten of the students also chose Jane. During the following Ouija board scene, the "spirit" guided the students to spell the name Jane.

I'm going to check out the Seance.. I don't know why! Maybe there's a "message" in one of the episodes?

I've looked through Flikr. There are a couple of Spearman on there, but all set up too long ago to be him.

I also checked out "message to the world". I would've thought the net would be an easy way for anyone to find an image?

I like the idea of it being related to a show. But he does say it's where people put their images. . . It doesn't have to be the net. It could be the Tate Modern or some other Art gallery.

Where else would people put their images?

there's Twitpic and Yfrog, face book and google images. Are everyone searching there just in case?

searching as many places as possible, as is everyone else i think (or rather hope!) t'internet is a big place to find one small image... =( searched all the most promising places but no luck yet

I was thinking perhaps the cinema?

I'll check out some sites.

I think this must be an internet thing as it says. I need you to send a message to the world.
As for the site I thought youtube was the obvious place but I suppose it could be anywhere. Are we missing any clues or just being a bit thick

What about this: "I've put it where many other people also put their images."

Their images = their faces? Facebook?

I just looked through 204 photos on Derren's blog!

Nothing there except fan pix!

I'm not sure the best way to do this. It feels like a needle in a haystack jobby, but it must be simpler than that!

I think it must be simpler too. The facebook thing does seem a good match as does youtube. Just very much a needle in a haystack without any idea what to search for. Tried all the obvious and some more obscure searches and nothing comes up. That's why I think we have either missed something or are waiting a clue. Could be brute force it and find all the changes on youtube and facebook in the last x hours. I tried a few google things but can't seem to cut it down enough to be useful.

Could it be labelled White rabbit 3?

The note in Andy's e-mail was white rabbit 2 and we had a white rabbit at the beginning?

I feel like I'm clutching at straws . . .

Arghh it has to be simpler.. the Lox one wasn't hard assuming they got the right answer.

I'm going out for dinner, coming back with a clearer head & will start searching again.
