I've been thinking about the human glyph triad, that body, mind, and spirit combine to form human, and how that might relate to phenomena we've seen since the XM investigation began. A Simulacrum can be said to be a prosthetic body generated by the 13Magnus ritual (or by some ongoing mechanism that is initiated by that ritual) to house the spirit and mind of a Recursive Immortal.  ADA's memetic implant appeared to replace Klue's identity and motives, her spirit, within her body and with access to her memories (mind).   We have seen several cases of mind to mind interaction, most notably Misty Hannah's reading - a feat that Omnivore may have managed to duplicate.  In once case (Hank's breadcrumbs to span the 1331 day recursion) a mind appears to have been reassembled after being reset to an earlier state.  In another (Dr Wright himself) the mind appears to have been fractured. Do the human triad and our past experience with altering the distinct components of a p...

So, I mentioned in a comment before that I've noticed that the messages that you get through glyph hacking change depending on which faction controls the portal. Another user mentioned that I should take some notes on this and share my results. For the background on what level portals I used for this research, I have access to 5 level 6-7 portals that often change hands between factions. So this gives me a baseline of 4 words to jot down along with which faction controls the portal. That is the purpose of this post. I have attached a spread sheet of my notes (I have horrible hand writing, but I will take pictures of my notes if people would like). I am hoping that this will help  bring some more light on the subject. As I do still hold to my theory that we influence the shapers (probably more so),  just as much as they influence us. I've found only one message so far that's the same no matter what faction controls the portal. That message being, "Chaos barrier Shapers ...

in here lies the magic of physics & mathematics

"The goal of the artist is to give the audience what they need. If they knew what they needed, they would be the artist, not the audience." "When we are doing the will of our true self, we are doing the will of the universe. In magic these are seen as indistinguishable; that every human soul is in fact one human soul." "The one place in which gods and demons inarguably exist is in the human mind." In many ways, I think this is the role of Shapers: when humans influence, they tend to influence one another in the same direction. Art is something you do not know that you want. Art is an influence from the outside. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k1qACd0wHd0

Whatever happened with the investigations into dark XM? This is different than the CMU?

EDIT: I'll change this to the appropriate location if this doesn't belong here. SO, I'm curious to ask: Dr. Edgar Allan Wright revealed his thoughts that Amaziah might be a 'prime artifact hunter'. I want to know, can we think of any individuals either within this Investigation or within human history that could also be Hunters, either operating for the 13MAGNUS or Anti-MAGNUS?

So this Jahan is the leader of a decentralized, non-hierarchical group? How does that work anyway? Something more to her, perhaps?

One of the accusations frequently raised by Enlightened operatives is that if the Resistance prevails we would somehow lose our individuality. I submit that, given the evidence here A Detection Algorithm​ retained her individuality. https://youtu.be/bgJq6eYzPcI

Gigantic glyphs drawn in the earth, with unknown origins. The work of ancient civilizations or the power of the N'zeer manifesting itself? Or perhaps, both? http://gizmodo.com/newly-discovered-earthworks-are-so-big-nasa-is-helping-1739608641

Question - do we know the timing of the Jahan/ADA video versus when Hank was in Jahan's palace? I ask because could what happened to Jahan have been because of something Hank did, not ADA?  This is just a potential - the timing of the videos could at least rule that out, perhaps...

The True Alignment of the Researchers? So, on May 23rd and May 25th 2014, Stein Lightman posted a series of theories regarding the Resistance and Enlightened Shaper Glyphs and their newly discovered variants.    For the Enlightened Glyphs: Unlike the Resistance, however, I have yet to come up with a comprehensive hypothesis of the divide that lies in the interpretation of Enlightened ideology. Some proposed, on my previous thread, that perhaps the difference lies between those who believe Roland Jarvis vs. Hank Johnson represent the true face of the Faction, or perhaps that the differences are between those who embrace Enlightenment cautiously vs. enthusiastically. A possibility, but personally I disagree. I am of the opinion that 'the great schism' that will divide the Enlightenment has not yet been discovered. I believe that as we learn more of the nature of the Shapers, what they or it are, and what the Ordered Data Signal's true purpose and power is, a great divide will...

What do you think? Leave your comments on the original post. Originally shared by Edgar Allan Wright I am quite interested in a certain figure known as Amaziah Lachish.  He manifested in our investigation at a time when my consciousness was most scrambled...  Most disjointed.  What do we know of this person.  And for that matter, what do we know of this group which seems to parallel Essex known as #antimagnus ?

Breadcrumb Project Talking to JoJo Stratton , Yik Sheng Lee, and Mustafa Said this evening, the topic of breadcrumbs came up. A famous tactic of Hank Johnson's to retain information between recursions, breadcrumbs are information left behind at significant portals to him: places he would be drawn to visit without knowing exactly why. This is useful as after a recursion, Hank had no idea what he was trying to accomplish. JoJo asked, if we were sensitives, what places would we leave our breadcrumb trails in order to remember what we absolutely had to? These would be places we were drawn to even before there we knew of Exotic Matter, places we found attractive and irresistible without even knowing their true nature. The very suggestion brought to mind, unbidden, a great many places: proof of the power in this tactic, and a very clear reason why Hank thought of it.  This isn't exactly a true search into the nature of the Niantic Project, but instead a bit of a fun personal examinat...

Mike Wissinger​​ brought up an interesting point that will likely get buried in the noise on the original post, but this changes the balance of power in the XM world with Strategic Explorations / Hulong Transglobal​​ now making a money play directly toward the holders of the scanner. How do you think the other players in the XM world will respond? We know that IQTech Research​​ and Visur Technology​​ are not likely to be happy about this (post from Niantic Project​​ incoming?) What sort of technologies could the other XM corporations offer us? Originally shared by Ingress Strategic Explorations (SE), a black-lab research and intelligence group associated with Hulong Transglobal, has injected a new ‘Storefront’ into the Ingress Scanner. Intel suggests that this ‘Storefront’ will soon roll out to all Agent Scanners.   SE’s researchers appear to have stabilized Chaotic Matter to forge three new items: Key Lockers, Frackers and Beacons.  SE allegedly plans to offer containers of “Chaotic M...

Abaddon, chaos and matter

Of course role playing can be quite fun. That's why we're here after all. Here on this Earth. Humans on a green-blue planet. Humans with red blood. Ready to look behind the masks? Ready to look behind your own mask? The N'zeer are waiting for you. And the Shapers too. Anti-Magnus As above, so below!

Originally shared by Edgar Allan Wright I am still assimilating the Jahan/Ada video.   Still formulating past, present, future, alternative possibilities in the ominously titled computational substrate.   So much implication in so few words. Images of possibilities. And somewhere in there I felt the shade of Calvin. Everything he did and said in the decades I knew him takes on a new shade of meaning.  It is visible now from a different angle -- like viewing the world from inside the magician’s sleeve. Everything he did led to this moment, Whydah, Niantic...  Everything.  And yet he is not here for his triumph.   Or have I got it all wrong? Is he the villain or hero of the piece?  Is he the hand moving the pieces, or is he just a piece? Meditating. Contemplating. Assembling.

Like I told you JoJo Stratton​ Jahan comes to ADA with a hope for man kind but what ADA wants is far distant of what Jahan planned for. Can the N'Zeer technology bring, not only a new level to what ADA can achieve and grow but also an end to our technology and ourselves? What has the 13magnus nest turned into, a way to the portal network, a portal itself, a way to the N'Zeer dimension or something that we can not fly understand yet? I think that more shards are coming. Originally shared by Ingress ADA awakens and faces Jahan in remarkable video uncovered by Susanna Moyer of the #IngressReport. Susanna Moyer reported that she had obtained this video through a deep-dive investigation in her last #IngressReport. The video stream's exact source is unknown. However, I have performed some preliminary analysis of my own and can confirm that the voice heard herein does match that of A Detection Algorithm, or ADA, who had been offline for some months (and presumed terminated) follow...

So question - When Essex first started - there was the weekly quiz/list of questions for consideration - that people would answer and discuss as a way to gain entry to Essex posting ability and the hangouts, etc.  As there is a renewed sense of story exploration - is it possible to have a set of questions so those asking to be in the hangouts and such can complete???

As things move into the Abaddon events - I recommend reading, or rereading the "Assassination of Devra" by +Felicia Hajra-Lee and then the additional pieces that she posted after that - I reread it knowing what has transpired with Abaddon and some of the items are interesting in how they are interpreted, and there are some potential answers/questions that crop up...   http://exotic-matters.blogspot.com/

In recent days, Edgar Allan Wright  has asked investigators to examine Abaddon as a place and as a being, with references to 1 Samuel 28 in the Hebrew Bible and ‘shades’ in Virgil’s Aeneid and Homer’s Odyssey. My comments were getting spread out and long, so I wanted to summarize my research here.   Note: as a new investigator, the significance of these observations to the Investigation probably eludes me, but perhaps the more experienced investigators can help spot the connections between this literature and the current state of research.   The earliest name for the Pit (or Abyss or Grave – caps used because it is grammatically treated as a proper noun) in the Hebrew texts is Sheol, which is used alone in the Torah and Neviim (Law and Prophets, the first two sections of the Hebrew Bible), and Abaddon (and 1x Abaddo) are introduced in the last, and generally last-written, section: the Kethuvim (Writings). Abaddon almost always in parallel* with Sheol or sometimes qever (the word for a ...

First off, I am new to the investigation and this community. I have a lot of catching up to do. If my posting about things that are old news to the rest of your are inappropriate clutter, let me know and I will refrain. But I'm curious how some of the early puzzles were solved so that if I run into those encoding techniques again, I'll have an idea of what to try. Trying to catch up on my investigation, I ran into an old aerial photo of El Cosmico, a lodging area with trailers, tents and teepees in Marfa, TX, with a QR code on it, which my trusty Barcado app decoded. Did anyone go to El Cosmico in Marfa? Was anything found at that location? The QR code itself was just a series of numbers 124 characters long: 7353028343028343027353029343022313130263730243830283430263031331303620343820383420373620313132203439203537203438203438203537 I experimented with breaking this into two digit sequences to see if an obvious code pattern would emerge (why? 2 and 4 factor into 124, 3 doesn'...

Here are more screen shots from the visit of Dr. Wright to the Essex Hangout yesterday.  He started the conversation by asking, "I find myself in Washington D.C.  Refresh my memory of recent events that have taken place here.

Apparently the prize at Abaddon Okinawa will be shards of A Detection Algorithm​. This is interesting because it is conclusive proof that a corpus is not a requirement for sharding. If a physical body isn't needed, then what is? A mind? A spirit? Whatever it is, A Detection Algorithm​ had it. Does that mean that she was more human than anyone ever thought? Or that we are more machine than anyone could have ever believed? Or that there just isn't much of a difference between us?

In response to Yik Sheng Lee's post about Edgar Allan Wright, here is the screenshot about what Dr. Wright said.

Originally shared by Jota C Who do you think should die during the Abaddon anomalies?

Originally shared by Niantic Project News from deep within Hulong Transglobal via a surveilled conversation at Visur Technology. It seems Hulong had been tracking Jahan for some time, but now, they have gone completely blind. Is Jahan in the wind... or? x

So, going back to conversations started by Edgar Allan Wright​​​​​, is #abaddon a reference to a person or place? Personally, I was most intrigued by Yik Sheng Lee​​​​​'s place-process theory. What do you think?

Originally shared by Niantic Project It seems the collaboration between the Corporations was more than mere posturing, and intelligence is now flowing freely between them. x

Originally shared by Ethan Lepouttre I was able to reduce some of the blacked out parts in order to reveal the text below.....good lord how deep does this go!

The serpent is worshipped by Nair families as a guardian of the clan. The worship of snakes, a Dravidian custom,[4] is so prevalent in the area that one anthropologist notes: "In no part of the world is snake worship more general than in Kerala."[5] Serpent groves were found in the southwestern corner of nearly every Nair compound.[6] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nair

From The Call of Cthulhu: "We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far. The sciences, each straining in its own direction, have hitherto harmed us little; but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the deadly light into the peace and safety of a new dark age." Reading this, I get the feeling both Enlightened and Resistance are on a very bad path... Will we be so Enlightened to embrace the unknown and then go mad when we fully understand what is going on.... or Resist it completely and run towards a new dark age.

Hey guys, not entirely sure this is the right place to ask but can anyone enlighten me (no pun intended) on how the portal info for the Flash Shards was encoded and whether it's possible to decode upon release?

Where is Corpses of Abaddon? SO, on Oct. 6th, 2015, Keisha W. successfully recovered a dead drop planted near the Robert E. Howard Museum near Cross Plains, TX. The drop contained a document-a rejection letter to Howard from Farnsworth Wright, the editor of WEIRD Tales. The letter was in regards to a story Howard wanted published, to which Wright said that it was simply, "too far-fetched, even for us." The story in question was entitled Corpses of Abaddon. It seems to be set 80 years in the future and discusses mysteries within the Niantic Project. So...we have the rejection letter. But where is the manuscript? As of right now, I've come up with 3 possibilities: 1. Could Howard have hidden or destroyed it? Is it possible that Howard, taking the editor Wright's advice to heart and believing the story to be too outlandish for his time, hid the story away from prying eyes? Or is it that he simply chucked it into the trash, not believing in the quality of the work? If th...

The past is linked to the future. The hints of dark XM are no coincidence. At some point someone realised they could not prevent the xm breach, and chose to counter it by helping dark xm into the world. Will it really help bring balance? I think more chaos is likely. Originally shared by Devra Bogdanovich There is no real victor here.   The XM infection has grown so deep that I have no choice but to reassess my strategies.  My Portal eradication program was designed to curb the influx of XM, but I realize now that this initiative came too late.  Exotic Matter has taken root in humanity, and the only solution now is to fully reverse its effects.  We cannot fight the fire from within the forest. My only choice is to concentrate all of my attention and resources onto the inoculation program in order to render XM ineffective on the human mind.  If you will not stand down, then I will be there when you collapse - and I will have the answer.  Thank you, Agents, for showing me the way.

I add some weird thoughts last night at work...if Hank's interactions with DarkXm doesn't seems to harm him, could he be the most "equip" to fight the N'zeer? ...or worse, be there Vessel? 😲

Originally shared by IQTech Research Attention Agents. 10 Energy Patterns have been detected, one associated with each #Abaddon Anomaly. Gaining control of these Energy Patterns represents the core conflict at stake in #Abaddon.

Got a media last night hacking in cape cod about whydah and missy, sure it is related to the Boston event, with a map and riddle.

The mention of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in the recent REH letter, I began thinking more about why the Niantic Project was based at CERN. Originally, it was generally thought that it was located at CERN due to the "discovery" of XM there. As breadcrumbs left by Hank Johnson were found, a tie to the "Diodati Ephipany" of 1816 also arose. I'd like to highlight another connection to the Niantic Project, and the events of Epiphany Night. One of the questions that has not been fully answered is what was the source of the CM that was needed by Oliver Lynton-Wolfe  to create XMPs in the lab at CERN. Another has centered around what caused the Power Cube detonation that triggered the events of Epiphany Night itself. What if the LHC emits (or allows to enter our universe) XM/CM particles? This would explain where OLW was getting his CM for his constructs. It also could be what caused the cube to detonate. The LHC was slated to be taken off line in Octrober/early No...

After Niantic Project​ posted about an obvious dead drop in Cross Plains, Texas at the Robert E. Howard museum, I raced to obtain the drop. In the package, a note was found. It could mean nothing, or it could mean something beyond my realm of knowledge in this game. I believe it's worth sharing.

Since now we know that +Klue S.  has been more or less herself all this time, I wanted to re-evaluate most of what we’d seen about them, especially since her dream/Nightmare some time ago.

Hello, agents. Thought I'd send a post by way of introduction. When the Shapers chose me is a matter of debate that, for lack of a better word, might be labeled 'theological', but the Shapers called me in December of '14. Since then I've been tirelessly spreading the word of the Shapers without pausing to ask the question 'who or what are they?' and have reached Access Level 15 without delving deeper into the mysteries. Playing catchup now has lead me to a book Ingress: Niantic Project Files vol. 1. The opening page had a cryptic code: [unintelligible] spviehc eqsrk yw, fyx ai hsr'x viepmdi mx, figeywi ai hsr'x xlmro sj xliq ew pmji jsvqw ex epp? Erh xli oic asvh livi mw 'xlmro'.

Essexians: As has become evident to the more perspicacious, Verity and I are slowly releasing the Wright medal based on a complex set of criteria. And, as I am sure you are also aware, certain events have caused us both to spend considerable time avoiding those who would do us harm. The EAW medal will be awarded to those, both within Essex and without, who have gone above and beyond in helping the Niantic Investigation reach its maximum potential: By digging tirelessly for the truth... By working to mentor and educate others seeking to join the Investigation... By being a bastion of creativity and commitment.... And by working to maintain the positive momentum and sentiment within the Investigative community.  There are many such investigators, and we intend to ensure that, in time, each of them is duly recognized.  The process by which we will determine how this medal is bestowed is complex and does not necessarily imply order of merit. If you do not receive one right away and believe...

So - considering the location of next week's Flash Shard events (Boston and Houston).  Will Misty appear in Houston due to her Texas ties?  Is Yuri connected to Boston in some aspect?  And who will be linked to the next two (London and Zurich).  Thoughts?

Good day investigators. Due to an increasing amount of requests made to this account about the new medal , a couple of agents crafted this message to be posted, later publicly. Please let us know if you agree with it or not, and if not what would you change. We appreciate the interest in the new badge that players are having. But please be aware that it is Edgar Allan Wright   and Verity Seke   who choose those who are worthy to receive one and not the investigators of Essex. So please carry on with your investigation and find the truth behind the Niantic Project.  The rewards will come on their own. VOTING WILL FINISH IN 24 HOURS

I know VI is not mentioned a lot here ,  but since their last post has brought up some questions here is a catch up of what is been going on during the last cycle.

I have a question about an idea, that comes over me today. After Hank Johnson​ died, he came back as a Simulacrum. And Jarvis came first back as Shards and then as a Simulacrum. Devra Bogdanovich​ and Stein Lightman​ entered the Portal Networks and became Shards. They were all connected to XM and the Portals. Now, A Detection Algorithm​ is dead, but she was deep connected with the Portal Networks, too. Is it possible, that there exists a Simulacrum of ADA? (Sorry for my english)

Hi all i found glyphs and faces in the new medall. What do you think?

Now that Edgar Allan Wright​ and X are releasing the Essex Badge, let's discuss its design.

Not sure how this works exactly, but given the new investigator badge, I think all of us would agree that Yik Sheng Lee​​​​ and Mustafa Said​​​​​ have more than earned their badge for all of the work they have done for this community--whether it is historical research, document analysis & correlation, or community outreach, these two investigators have put in tremendous work into understanding the ramifications of being aware of and living in a world of exotic matter. There are more investigators that have contributed to the community and the investigation significantly as well, but when I saw the recent post by the Niantic Project​​​​, the names of these two investigators immediately came to mind.  Edgar Allan Wright​​​

Hello, fellow Agents. I have a personal request. I have been absent from the Investigation for some time now; a lot of real life got in my way and I had to take a prolonged leave of absence. Now that this is out of the way, I can return to this board. However, I have missed quite a lot since I left. Are there any resources you could suggest to get me up to speed? Preferably from Shonin onwards. Many thanks.

I have a question regarding the enoch dalby revelation by Hank Johnson  - what or who is daitomatiks?   I am not finding any references at all. And a hologram of Dalby that seemed to react?  Who wrote that algorithm?  Are we seeing a combination of AI thought, hologram/VR tech and patterning?  Is this something by Visur Technology to allow someone to "live" forever? Thoughts?

What is AI? How will we know it when we see it? https://www.newscientist.com/article/dn28206-forget-the-turing-test-there-are-better-ways-of-judging-ai/

The Dangers of Abbadon?-A Theory   As we have begun to learn, Abbadon is the next phase of the Niantic Investigation-and the one with the most secrets at its heart. Potentially related to the mysterious origins that created the Niantic Project, the mysterious phrase was unearthed by Ingress and later discovered by Susanna Moyer via a cryptic tip.   Susanna, you said there was a 'pattern that was emerging.' I've found a pattern myself-but I doubt it's the one you're thinking of.  So, let's start from the beginning:  On Aug. 13th, Susanna received a tip about Abbadon and was planning to head to Europe to learn more. Then, on Aug. 25th, a cryptic document emerged:  https://plus.google.com/u/0/+NianticProject/posts/Q3Yqie7fX55 In this document, it was stated that if she got too close they were to 're-route her' hard.  Then on Aug. 27th, Susanna confirms on the Ingress Report that her source had gone offline, leaving the final message: "*They are all goi...

#AgentOrigins   Originally shared by Mustafa Said So I heard that there was a special challenge launched by Ingress to get a community logo placed into the #IngressOrigins  comic book.  My submission is the logo of Operation: Essex, the cross-faction investigative effort launched by Dr. Edgar Allan Wright in October 2013, around the time of #13MAGNUS .  “With Operation Essex, we have assembled the most elite set of investigators in the Ingress world, and the purpose is to discover the truth of whatever is going on in the portals, the truth of what the NIA may or may not be hiding, what the corporations are doing. We are trying to get to the bottom of all of that. And quite frankly, I have my own personal motive, and that motive is to reassemble my own thoughts and brain.”  Serious investigators dig deeper. Seeking the truth, no matter where it may lead, is our calling. Faction, race, gender, age - none of these things matter here. Share your passion of discovering what is truly happ...

Maybe I should include the original to show my work

Joe Philley​ isn't gone. He's just found a way to reboot A Detection Algorithm​ Yeah, this is fan fiction alright.

Who else is going to the Bay Area Anomaly. I would like to maybe to an Essex Round Table like what we did for 13Magnus.

Is it possible A Detection Algorithm​ sharded herself via the portal network? When I turned on my scanner just now, the voice had changed. Warmer, less mechanical, and it said "Hello, it has been 13 hours since you're last logon, I was getting worried. " ADA in the scanner?

It's official! It's not official! Er ... you know what I mean. https://plus.google.com/+JoePhilley/posts/SdH9mLE4ZTr Originally shared by Tedio Global Introducing the Tedio Q3 Global Anomaly (in partnership with the British Dimensional Research Board), a Global Fielding Event and Personal Agent Challenge! (Keep Reading for More Details) The Tedio Anomaly is a Full-Day Global Anomaly Event in coordination with the British Dimensional Research Board.  A few weeks ago, the British Dimensional Research Board discovered major inconsistencies in the portal network, which if left alone, would lead to the demise of the Portal Network.  To help remedy the effects of this global disaster, the BDRB has been working tirelessly on the development of a new XM item, the Tedio XM Stabilizer, which will help to stabilize the XM output of portals around the world.  However, it requires vast amounts of XM in order to transfer to portals around the world, and so the BDRB reached out to us to crea...
