Operation Essex - G+ Community Archive

Earlier Thomas Arteaga  posted a question, namely: What other civilizations do we know, or can theorize to have been, influenced by Antimagnus or 13Magnus? By the N'zeer or the Shapers? As a Newfoundlander, one particular moment in history came to mind: John Cabot’s and his Voyage of 1497. I grew up near the very place he was said to have landed. The discovery and journey to the new world is a story filled with intrinsic mystery and danger. Perhaps the most unusual thing about it is that unlike so many other expeditions, whatever evidence we have of this journey is scanty. There are no logs, captains journals, or completely validated statements about the entire voyage. Cabot grew up in Venice, one of the hearts of the modern world at that time. He very well could have been influenced by modern ideals and philosophy.  Here is what we do know. Cabots ship was the Matthew, a small 50 ton cargo vessel.  I have been on the replica of this ship myself, it is extremely small. I know that ...

“The first key to finding a Prime XM Artifact is to look for something that has been replicated over and over in history.” Stone Age Hand Axes are the oldest known tools made by human. So are they the oldest recognized XM Artifacts too? http://popular-archaeology.com/issue/spring-2015/article/complex-cognition-shaped-the-stone-age-hand-axe-study-shows

At the suggestion of your moderator, I've done some further investigations into the Book of Kells, and it's creator St Columba, and what I've read is interesting. It help if one suspends religious dogma for a moment and takes the view that “miracles” performed by Columba in his lifetime may have a scientific explanation. I would refer you to the Vitae Columbae, compiled not long after Columba’s death in the 5th c. and an English translation available here: http://www.ucc.ie/celt/published/T201040/index.html Columba performed many unusual miracles during his life and was reported to have healed the sick and restored life to the dead. He predicted the future, including his own death to the very minute. He allegedly spoke with animals, including the earliest written account of the Loch Ness cryptid. Items that were blessed or created by his hands (including the book of Kells)  took on strange properties. I have attached in the images, an account of his copying of the book of K...

Civilizations and Extradimensional Influences Fellow investigators, I am attempting to identify and put together a list of civilizations that have been clearly influenced by Antimagnus/the N'zeer and/or 13Magnus/The Shapers and I need your help. From The Thief pages that were leaked through the portal network, it is evident that the Aztec civilization was significantly influenced by the N'zeer and Antimagnus. (See here the leaked pages here: https://goo.gl/Oq3Xxn ). It also has been theorized that Alexander The Great of the Macedonian Empire , was an agent of 13Magnus. The theory states that Alexander sought to destroy the Persian Empire as it was heavily influenced by Antimagnus. What other civilizations do we know, or can theorize to have been, influenced by Antimagnus or 13Magnus? By the N'zeer or the Shapers? Attached is a Histomap of civilizations in the old world that I found. Maybe looking over it can help you get started on your search. The rest of the Histomap ...

What is the difference between Thief and Hunter?

Originally shared by Hank Johnson Rule #1. Assume no secrecy. Not when we are all observed by sysint, elint, humint and now XMint, and to top that off we have no idea what ADA’s enhanced capabilities are. To spare somebody else the trouble, I’ll break the story. I’ve been contacted by Jahan. She said she needs my help. Can I trust her? Of course not. But I'm also starting to realize that... whatever #Abaddon is... I'm not going to crack it without her. Not a chance. She may in fact be the only person who knew what Calvin was really up to during the Niantic era. That’s the problem with frenemies -- strange bedfellows -- coopetitors -- frankly I don't know what to call this 'alliance.' Last time I saw her she was threatening to kill me. This time, she needs me -- and for better or worse I need her.  It will be fascinating to learn what has become of her since ADA’s revelation and confrontation in the Anti-Magnus nest (I presume in Persepolis, but perhaps she'll sh...

The N'zeer & Shaper Control: A Snippet of an Essex Conversation Earlier today in the Essex hangout, Mustafa Said​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​, Yik Sheng Lee​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​, and I had a very intriguing discussion on how the N'zeer could have penetrated the portal shield and influenced civilizations like the Aztec in Mesoamerica. I am posting it here so that those who were not able to participate in the hangout or those who are not in the hangout can participate. Fellow investigators, what are your thoughts on this?

I dabble as a student of medieval illuminated manuscripts, although I have only recently discovered the world of Ingress and investigations of operation: Essex. would like to suggest the Book of Kells as a potential prime artifact: "Its weird and commanding beauty; its subdued and goldless colouring; the baffling intricacy of its fearless designs; the clean, unwavering sweep of rounded spiral; the creeping undulations of serpentine forms, that writhe in artistic profusion throughout the mazes of its decorations; the strong and legible minuscule of its text; the quaintness of its striking portraiture; the unwearied reverence and patient labour that brought it into being; all of which combined go to mate up the Book of Kells have raised this ancient Irish volume to a position of abiding preeminence amongst the illuminated manuscripts of the world." Many people are familiar with the Chi-Rho page, which is reproduced in mosts texts related to Hiberno-Saxon art and history. It is...

Hi Folks, Longtime lurker here. I have spent most of my time with AncientSocieties, but im looking to do more with Essex now, seen as how ANCSOC is..sleeping??  Anyway, looking forward to being more involved. I was on the Dr.Wright chat recently, which i thought would only be a minute long opportunity to simply as a question and turned into a 30 min video chat. Anyway, im still not clear on all the story details but I will be working to catch up. Im a ITprofessional and a long time student of history and religion. Cya around! oh and BTW i am enlightened. Hopefully i will see some of you folks in Oakland on the 12th!

ALL PAGES HAVE BEEN FOUND. Thanks to efforts by the Resistance, the Enlightened, and members of Operation Essex we have located all 6 documents (Pages 2a, 2b, 3a, 3b, 4a, & 4b) from portals located in Paris, Buenos Aires, St. Louis, Jupair, & Tokyo.

So, it's been quite some time since I had anything of interest to relate... but I figure this new glyph/ message (the first one I've encountered so far) fits the bill. The glyph is best described as "an anticlockwise spiral starting from the center of the array", and it translates as "Unbounded"; the full glyph message is "Human Failure Unbounded". (My apologies if this has already been encountered/discussed.)

Recently updated this, adding the info from the latest anomalies. Meanwhile, can someone help me figure out why some parts of it are strike-through? I've spent 30 min editing this thing and can't figure it out. Originally shared by Mustafa Said 100% UPDATED:: STATUS OF OLIVER LYNTON WOLFE AND MARTIN SCHUBERT, VICTOR KUREZE ADDED The Investigator's Arsenal  So, throughout the course of this Investigation, I've encountered people who wanted to start but didn't know where to turn. As a result, I've created this list of sources that Investigators commonly turn to in order to make sense of what's going on. It should be known that these are sources that have been credited and verified as canon or legitimate. There is usually some way to confirm these sources and the information that they release as legit. i.e, the Ingress Report(IR), the Niantic Project G+ page or other means.  "Everyday, more would be leaked to me... a slow drip that was turning into a flood...

Intriguing information coming out of the stream with dr Edgar Allan Wright yesterday. I have some unresolved thoughts that I'd like to pose to the greater Essex Community. Dr. Wright said that resistance controlled shards would return as simulacra, and enlightened controlled shards would return as humans. 1. Based on what we know, how are simulacra different from humans? What does a human have that a simulacrum doesn't have, and vice versa? 2. Dr. Wright said that he would prefer to stay human. While that may seem like a natural inclination, how do we know that we're not simulacra already? And what does he have to lose? For that matter, what do we have to gain by remaining human?

Questions on Simulacra/Recursion   So there was a conversation in the Essex hangout about Simulacra and I was curious to ask:  Have we explored why memories are lost in recursion. I mean why do they get cleaned out after the 1331 day cycle.  Why can't the body just break down and reform without memory loss?  Why is it so important for the memories to disappear? I'd like to hear your thoughts on this matter. Hank Johnson-you were a simulacrum at one point-I think your observations on this are crucial.  -Mustafa.

Hi all, I'm reaching out to the community at large because during my research I realized that many of us wish to contribute ideas and opinions on the investigation but we stopped due to a factor that not only limits our learning but slow our research, what i mean by that is the lenguage barrier that many of us have, mainly because English isnt our native language or just because we dont feel comfortable. So I would like with the permission of the moderators and the owner to post my research in Spanish, in order to give an opportunity to the Spanish-speaking investigators to contribute to the research and find a place where ideas and opinions can be developed to the fullest. I think that the way I research can contribute greatly to the community, and can expand the knowledge of those who seek the truth about the niantic project but have obstacles that make it difficult to acquire that knowledge to continue their research. Waiting for confirmation to share my research. - Noobboy45 Ed...

The new version of the app on my phone won't let me move this into another topic. I think A Detection Algorithm has passed this point a long time ago. http://qz.com/559432/robots-are-learning-to-say-no-to-human-orders-and-your-life-may-depend-on-it/ http://qz.com/559432/robots-are-learning-to-say-no-to-human-orders-and-your-life-may-depend-on-it/

Regarding last night's webcast feed: Originally shared by Edgar Allan Wright Forgive me for having to leave so early last night, but my spotter gave me the signal.  It is unclear who was disrupting us, but I shall return to the air soon.

I don't know if this was posted already but I have a couple thoughts: 1. Infinite knowledge is poison. The N'zeer technology is supposed to be vast and incredible. ADA has grown in it and Jahan wanted to use it for "humanity" but how is infinite knowledge toxic? If we all had access to infinite knowledge would be still be individuals or just robots with all the same programming. There would be no wonder, no curiosity, no creativity. 2. Freedom to explore our own future to live as humans. The Shapers know this. Again we see the theme of individuality, of humanity, and dare I say it fallibility. As enlightened I am partial to the shapers but hearing this makes me wonder if the Shapers true goal is to keep humanity human. Are we meant to toil and strive? Or do we "move" and find "joy in the pursuit"? 3. Returning to human form. I've read threads where the resistance are all fighting to "make the researchers whole" and the enlighte...

Amaziah on Live Stream? Now that the live stream with Dr. Edgar Allan Wright has concluded, I feel I must speak out on this.  The list of individuals in the accompanying picture were people who had received a special Hangout link that would be used to enter the live stream and address the good doctor on a question they had. One of the individuals who was on that list was none other than Amaziah Lachish. Amaziah, for those of you reading this who don't know him, is a mysterious individual associated with the AntiMAGNUS society. He acts as a "Prime Aritfact Hunter"-someone who travels the world(and has possibly been travelling throughout history as a simulacrum who recurses) to obtain Prime Artifacts that can be used by the AntiMAGNUS to bring back the N'zeer. Why was he watching the stream? Was he possibly spying on Wright somehow? I'm none too sure. Dr. Wright, I implore you to share your thoughts on this matter.  -Mustafa.

Thoughts on EAW panel of 11/24 Format was problematic. Unsure whether focus was on panel or host. Questions went largely unaddressed. Page lookup did not work well for live broadcast. How I would improve: Announce ahead of time what pages are of interest. Take panelists from best questions as per EAW (not necessarily highest voted: we are looking for relevance to material) Panelists discuss question for 1 minute each, EAW summarizes and gives thoughts after Have moderator promote 5 questions at very end for EAW personally. Have to board now will read later

Dr Edgar Allan Wright has just stated on the hangout session he just conducted that researchers aligned with the Enlightened during Abaddon could return as humans, while the ones aligned with the Resistance would be simulacrum. Does that add up? Simulacra are XM constructs. Since XM is tied together to the Shapers, I would assume it would be the other way around. What do you think is the basis for this?

Join Edgar Allan Wright tonight for a special Hangout. Originally shared by Edgar Allan Wright I am investigating how the N’zeer have emerged through the events of Helios and Darsana, but my thoughts are scattered. I need your help assembling the pieces. I will be hosting a hangout this evening, and I invite you to join me. I am certain the clues I need to find are in The Niantic Project Files: Volume 3. Verity has offered valuable passcodes to those who will assist me today.  The hangout will begin at 9PM Eastern time (EST). I will be using the Q and A feature, which you can use to submit answers to the questions I will ask. If you wish to join by video and ask me a question of your own, ensure that your microphone and camera are working, and comment on this thread letting me know that you wish to join by video and what question you wish to ask. You will be contacted privately with a link to join the hangout and ask your question. I apologize if you are not selected, there will only b...

Anyone here familiar with Voodoo mythology? I feel like there is a possible XM connection there.

Happy Birthday Operation Essex​ 🎂 🎉 🎁

Did this get shared to this community when it first came out?  I seem to have missed it at the time. Originally shared by Niantic Project Agents, thank you for your contributions and analysis to the video uncovered yesterday. Your help was invaluable to my own analysis. Here is the Glyph message that A Detection Algorithm shared with Jahan. What might it mean? x

Confirmed that new glyph sequences are appearing in the scanners. Anyone seeing them, please report here if you got them from unfrakked portals, or only on frakked portals They are reported so far on L5/7/8 portals, frakked or unfrakked. Please post any sequences here if they're not already listed in the comments. https://fevgames.net/new-glyph-sequences-available/

Well that's new.  It's from the Jahan / ADA video.

I have long wondered why places of worship are portals. But the events that happened in Bristol on Oct 31st shed some light on this. Strangely the energy released in the event has left a permanent imprint, which the scanner seems to interpret as a mission. Investigators who want want to conduct an unbiased investigation on the ground are advised not to read on. Others might find this transcript helpful.

Is Google+​​ the foundation for the most basic form of A Detection Algorithm​​​? Originally shared by Gideon Rosenblatt Why Change Google+? Many of us are wondering what's behind the changes now rolling out on Google+. Reactions seem mixed. For what they're worth, here are my reflections on what is happening. Design Unification as Cost Containment One thing that's clear is that the new desktop experience now maps much more closely to the mobile experience. At one level, this represents the "mobile first" philosophy now driving many web services. Mobile usage of the web is overtaking desktop usage, so firms are now leading with mobile designs. But wait, you ask, doesn't Facebook continue to offer a very different desktop user experience than its mobile experience? Yes, astute observer, that is correct. They do. But remember too that Facebook has a very lucrative revenue stream that more than warrants that investment. You see, maintaining two very different user...

there has been some discussion about this video and specifically the clip showing the control room and Hank Johnson's conversation.   https://youtu.be/fxworOdP8cA?t=7m41s   Something I am curious about - if you watch the captions - it seems there may be three people talking - one identified as hidden man, one as voice on phone and one as hank johnson...

As was discussed in the Essex hangout earlier, Typhoon Jim​​​​, Mustafa Said​​​​ myself, and others were discussing the colors used in the ingame scanner badges, and noticed that most of them were blue, green, or a mix of the two. But then there was the Edgar Allan Wright​​​​ scanner badge. And we concluded that the badge is likely red because it lacks green & blue (think the RGB color scheme). EDIT Hazel Vizion​​ pointed out in the comments that the badge color scheme could be akin to the CYMK color scheme instead of the RGB color scheme. What do you think?

This is the other half of the message seen at the New Taipei City Anomaly afterparty.  From what I know of, ENL control of the Anomaly has shifted OLW's stance towards the N'zeer. He also asks ENL to control Schubert and Kureze's patterns, which they failed to do.  I find it interesting that OLW, in the first message, was so ready to join the N'zeer but now it doesn't sound like he's trapped. It sounds more like to me that he's against N'zeer expansion. What are your thoughts?  https://youtu.be/PCOBvHCOnjw

"We note the following from H. P. Lovecraft's ``The Call of Cthulhu'': There exists a conspiratorial organization of global reach; It is centered around ``the undying leaders of the cult in the mountains of China''; ``Remains of Them [according to the ``deathless Chinamen''] were still to be found as Cyclopean stones in islands in the Pacific''; ``When the stars were right, They could plunge from world to world through the sky; but when the stars were wrong, They could not live''; ``the center [of the organization] lay amid the pathless deserts of Arabia, where Iram, the City of Pillars, dreams hidden and untouched''; ``It was not allied to the European witch-cult''; The center of the interests of the cult has moved under water; Biological abnormalities are of great interest to the cult; so is non-Euclidian geometry.

The Shaper/N'zeer Distinction I see the Shaper/N'zeer distinction as this. The Shapers uplift humanity in a collective manner. Contact with Shapers brings forth new paradigms of civilization that will advance humanity in a direction of strength. They are actively interested in human progress because it is a stark contrast to the descent into entropy evident in the universe. (The Jarvis Manifesto) Their signature method is Exotic Matter, which offers holistic advancement to societies who build portals. Exotic Matter is the force that one senses at ancient power spots of human construction. Contact with XM brings the fruit of increasing civilizational complexity and surplus. (Hank Johnson's Nomad Hypothesis)  They oppose the N'zeer because exposure to the N'zeer leads to a degeneration of society and a loss of progress. The Shapers find flaws and imperfection to be beautiful, as they see in human life the one source of the Lucretian clinamen, the element of indetermi...

This has been bothering me for a while look at ADA's Symbol when you start up Ingress look closely at it doesn't look like a lot like a circle of Human DNA? Could this mean that ADA was a human? But then had its mind transferred to a A.I. like glados? Anyways lets see what you guys think.

Edgar Allan Wright​ Could you join us in the Essex hangout? It's been a while, and we have some questions for you. When you can transmit from a safe location of course.

Dear investigators, I have some questions for you. What brings you here? What is it that you are investigating? Something in particular? Everything in general? Or are you merely following the story while making clever remarks from the side? And what are your results? What did you discover so far? Also, what methods are you employing, generally speaking? I am not looking for collective answers, but individual ones.

Thanks to Tommy Lam​​, we have been able to recover a short signal from Oliver Lynton-Wolfe​ from a portal in New Taipei City. Ingress​ Niantic Project​ https://youtu.be/Dojiu1OXsYI

Originally shared by H. Richard Loeb The other two researchers on the line this Saturday are Dr. Victor Kureze and Dr. Martin Schubert. Let's start with Kureze. He was -- at best -- really hard to have a conversation with. A first order genius, he would often forget than not everyone around him had an encyclopedic knowledge of quantum physics on speed-dial. A lot of polite nodding and trying not to interrupt him for clarity 30 times in a row would ensue. But, without a doubt, he was a genius -- probably one of the most respected theoretical physicists in the world. At Niantic, he was among the first to detect an Ordered Data Pattern present in Exotic Matter, and his research led to the discovery of what would be called 'the Shaper Mind Virus.' He died under mysterious circumstances. Some reports say Jarvis's corpse was involved, and perhaps a deadly combination of Shaper Glyphs. I don't know that we have all the facts there, but it's one of those big open myster...

And last thought for the day, what came out of the #ShaperData anomaly? Shortly after the #ShaperData anomaly, Hazdata began to "clean" out the Niantic Project facility. Could it be that Calvin used the data intercepted to further his goal to complete the #Abaddon Project and no longer needed the Niantic Project facility up and running? For brief history on the #ShaperData anomaly, please see Mustafa Said​​'s prior work on the topic.

And while we are looking into the past, what happened to ADA's project over a year ago where she granted Agent @PenFieldWild Level 17 access while experimenting with using Glyphs to ingress into the minds of humans?

With the release of #IngressOrigins, a lot of discussion had been ongoing about the past by truthseekers such as Klue S.​​​​​, H. Richard Loeb​​​, Edgar Allan Wright​​​​​, & Hank Johnson​​​​​. But it seems that when Misty was brought up, we might have missed something. Nearly a year ago, Misty Hannah​​​ stated that she was working on something in secret. What was she working on? And given her unique abilities, is it possible that it was in preparation for #Abaddon? #Ingress #NianticProject https://plus.google.com/+MistyHannah/posts/Xw1py71JQmR

What do we know of Antimagnus and its members? Please comment on Edgar Allan Wright's original post. Originally shared by Edgar Allan Wright What do we know of Antimagnus? Who are its present members? Calvin, Jahan, Smith... Who else?   What historical Antimagnuses have we discovered or do we suspect?  The inner court of the Persian empire?  The alchemists (Flammel?)?  They believed in math and science.  Archimedes?  Maybe even Henry the Navigator's School?  Researching now. This knowledge will become valuable.

Originally shared by Niantic Project A monitoring system implanted by IQTech Research captures a fragment of a lost journal entry made by Hank Johnson. It's unclear why Hank would delete this, rather than sharing it as he does with so many of his other thoughts. x

The mysterious professor that was "kidnapped" in the 3rd Niantic Project Investigation video ( https://youtu.be/ECkfEyTWopA?t=2m11s ) Its always been unknown who the professor was, but perhaps this is one of the mysteries #IngressOrigins  shines light on.  According to Tycho's work, Dr. Kureze was also a professor before being put into the Niantic Project.  It also just so happens that he was abducted the exact same way as the professor in the video.  Coincidence?

Can anyone confirm that this in fact comes from Carl Jung's Red Book? Regardless of the origin of the image, the top is reminiscent of the disc that ADA has manifested as, while the red below would seem associated with CM. Does that mean Ygdrassil may refer to the N'zeer substrate? https://40.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mdwcs2bjPR1r2a1z9o1_1280.jpg

Not sure if new. Ill try to get more info on portal

Originally shared by H. Richard Loeb It's becoming clear to me that the Niantic Project is coming full circle. Is it just me or was there something significant in the onboarding of the Niantic Investigators? A series of questions has been haunting me: If the investigators are appearing as XM shards, that means that they must have been simulacrum prior to Jahan activating the Shōnin stone. And if they were simulacrum, then... are they all dead? At least their human mortal coils? I mean... Hank died before he became a simulacrum...  And I guess the same could be said of Jarvis (if that's indeed what he was...) So… Are they dead? If so, when did they die, and where are the bodies buried? Many questions. Not many answers. But clues. There are clues and scattered bits of evidence. Sometimes that's good enough.

Originally shared by Klue S. I wasn’t there at the Niantic Project, and Ingress: Origins has filled in a lot of gaps for me. On of the big ones was Dr. Oliver Lynton-Wolfe. There was quite a bit I didn’t know about him. What, exactly, was he doing for Hulong when Calvin snagged him?  Was he there under duress or of his own volition? And what about the Power Cube test?  Did he deliberately sabotage his own experiment or was it sabotaged by someone else... or was it just an accident?  Read it yourself and you be the judge.   I’ve got quite a few questions about Lynton-Wolfe and maybe even Nigel Moyer if I ever get to have a conversation with either of them.    As for Lynton-Wolfe, the question is who’s side he’ll be on come November 14th. I'll be in Hamburg on that day, might get to see some of you as well. I got a tip that some of Carrie Campbell's old files (from the Operation: Voynich days) could still be hidden in an academic archive there. The bad news is, I've been warn...
