Obviously they are the original poster images but with more graphics overlayed onto them. I'm not sure whether it's just a fan who has mocked-up the
original images, or whether they're official:crazed:

I dunno, if they are original fan-art they are impressively well done. The themes for each one are great, and they really did their research. Cuz some of it I at least recognize and it's pretty complex stuff as far as I know. something I see is alot sequences of numbers and what not, wonder if this is something to delve deeper into. If nothing else though, these are just really realy well done and almost seem as if they could be legit.
Edit: Ok I know those sequences, they are fibonacci sequences. 0,1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21...... It is theorized that those numbers are at the root of almost all existence. For example, if you look at the first poster the conch shell pictured... If you break it down as they have shown in the pictures, those squares side lengths are exponentially growing in fibonacci sequence hence making it's area exponentially grow, and making rays as they have shown in the picture creates a shell. It has been proven as far as I know that all shells in existence( at least anyone that has been studied) grow according to the fibonacci sequence.
The same goes for the hand, the numbers on the right side are fibonacci, the others, I am not quite sure. 6 is probably for the 6 finger hand. But who knows, that one seems a bit random, almost just compiled to look cool upon further inspection.
And upon looking at the third picture I notice that the equation there is quite basic, and just doesn't quite make sense, it looks at first glance like some sort of useful equation, but upon further inspection it's just nonsense. I can't find anything like that on google, although of course it probably would be hard to find. And I just can't make enough sense of the background of the leaf, more math that's all I know.

Aha! I've just checked the FOX site (http://www.fox.com/fringe/) and their Fringe section has been updated with those images.
When you click the images it opens up this youtube vid of a six fingered man:
YouTube - The 12 Fingered Man-Louise and Stuart's Amazing India
and the word NAMASTE!! All Lost fans (http://lostcommunity.co.uk) will love this connection. Namaste (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Namaste) is a phrased used by Lost's shadowy science outfit, the Dharma Initiative..and they borrow it from Buddhism, Sikhism and Hinduism where the word means "I Bow to you", although there are derivitives of it's meaning.
and another images opens up a page to the Future on FOX blog (http://www.fox.com/futurefox/blogs/index.php/tag/fringe/)
There's also a 'Holomove' sound when you hold your mouse overr the images....at last a firm connection between holomove and Fringe?
The thing is, they want us to look closer at the things they show us..I wonder if there's more we should be noticing?

Ah! Isn't that the Fionacci sequence in the triangle-leaf poster?
*goes to check*
Yup, it is! Here's some info on the Fibnacci sequence from Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci_number):
In mathematics (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematics), the Fibonacci numbers are a sequence (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequence) of numbers named after Leonardo of Pisa (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leonardo_of_Pisa), known as Fibonacci. Fibonacci's 1202 book Liber Abaci (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liber_Abaci) introduced the sequence to Western European mathematics, although the sequence had been previously described in Indian mathematics (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_mathematics).[1] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci_number#cite_note-0)[2] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci_number#cite_note-1)
The first number of the sequence is 0, the second number is 1, and each subsequent number is equal to the sum of the previous two numbers of the sequence itself. In mathematical terms, it is defined by the following recurrence relation (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recurrence_relation):
http://upload.wikimedia.org/math/7/6/f/76f99713cf111eb035d908228c351710.png That is, after two starting values, each number is the sum of the two preceding numbers. The first Fibonacci numbers (sequence A000045 (http://www.research.att.com/~njas/sequences/A000045) in OEIS (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/On-Line_Encyclopedia_of_Integer_Sequences)), also denoted as Fn, for n = 0, 1, 2, … ,20 are:[3] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci_number#cite_note-2)[4] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fibonacci_number#cite_note-3)
The Fibonacci numbers first appeared, under the name mātrāmeru (mountain of cadence (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cadence)), in the work of the Sanskrit grammarian (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanskrit_grammarians)Pingala (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pingala) (Chandah-shāstra, the Art of Prosody, 450 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/450_BC) or 200 BC (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/200_BC)). Prosody (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prosody_%28linguistics%29) was important in ancient Indian ritual because of an emphasis on the purity of utterance. The Indian mathematician (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_mathematicians)Virahanka (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virahanka) (6th century AD) showed how the Fibonacci sequence arose in the analysis of metres (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vedic_meter) with long and short syllables. Subsequently, the Jain (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jain) philosopher Hemachandra (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemachandra) (c.1150 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1150)) composed a well-known text on these. A commentary on Virahanka's work by Gopāla (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gopala_%28mathematician%29) in the 12th century also revisits the problem in some detail.
So is THIS part of "THE PATTERN"?? The Fibonacci numbers are a 'sequence' (pattern) of numbers.."The first number of the sequence is 0, the second number is 1, and each subsequent number is equal to the sum of the previous two numbers of the sequence itself"
So we could be looking at something where whatever is happening in the show..is part of a sequence..a sequence which depends on the previous sequence? So the planeload of melted passengers is the next 'stage' in the experiment. So basically they could go wioth the central idea that none of these phenomena are independant..they're ALL closely related and dependant on one another. So as Broyles said..it's a "pattern".
Not sure that makes sense to anyone else, as I kinda ended up in the same place..but using the Fibonacci sequence as a template, I think we can begin to make some sence/guess of where JJ will go with this..

Damn you're fast D. Yeah I feel you definitely on the sequences. I didn't know that there was really a formula like that for fibonacci, I just knew it as a pattern I always remembered, heh good one. So a lot to look into, sweet.
I think you really have something on this nothing happens for no reason. I think that's definitely gonna play a huge role, everything happens from a sequence of events from before. Interesting very interesting.

I know what you mean on this as well, there is a certain mystique I would say involved with fibonacci sequences, they are very mysterious and for lack of a better word creepy in their own way. And it definitely tells me something about what I expect from the show, I just don't exactly know how to describe it. Weird, I'm sure but it seems like you know and understand what I am trying to say about them and what it means for the show.

Haha, yeah I just thought that each images much have somekind of clue or reference encoded into it somewhere. I'm going to do some mroe reading up on Fibonacci a bit later..hopefully they'll be more connections in there somewhere.
I think the third image links to another video - but I can't view it for some reason..i'll have to try again later, unless anyone is able to link it

Yeah, that's the thing - even Pacey said as much in a recent interview, that the audience will have to look closely at what they show us, and I think the same can be said for this viral stuff.
"A sequence of events" - I like that phrase..and I agree, I think looking at things this way will help us to understand where they're taking us.

Totally agree..that's the impression i've always had about them. Even though my knowledge on the sequence is limited, I've always got the impression that they lead to a type of 'Pandora's Box'. I can't wait to see how JJ and co will give us a new perspective on fringe (and even 'conventional') science.
Like you, I just love the 'feel' that this show has to it..and it hasn't even started!:goodvibes: JJ is a very creative guy, and it looks like FOX are supporting that creativity well. Long may it continue!

This may sound odd, but I swear there's not only a triangle in the leaf poster, but also in the hand poster. The 'lifelines' on the palm appear to make a triangle shape. Coincidence?..who knows!
D-Roc
06-26-2008, 12:47 PM
Hmm, we really need a palmist for this but..
Triangles: Triangles anywhere on the palm indicate a decent upbringing and emotional or intellectual strength. This once again depends which mound the triangle is found on. For example: a triangle found on the Mound of Venus indicates emotional strength and understanding when it comes to love. A triangle found on the mound of Saturn beneath the third finger indicates incredible physical and emotional endurance during times of trouble.

Does anyone know this Stuart Sims character that did the video in the 6fingerman link? I have done a little research and it seems this guy sims has posted on another blog under the name Master Quark. I checked to make sure that it was the same guy and it seems to be. He also has a website called portaltoindia.com that he says will be up in running in September. Is it just a coincedence, or is that when the show actually starts??
P.S. I downloaded the leaked episode, but have not watched it yet. Maybe there are some clues there. Idk... im so confused... thanks mr.abrams

Good catch archriot! I think you could be onto something. Here's what he has written on the blog that you found:
Portal To India is a place to sample some of the delights of what India has to offer. We travel to India yearly and select hand crafted items which pass our strict scrutiny. Beautiful one-of-a kind sterling silver jewelry pieces, accented with exquisite semi precious stones, silk scarves, bold antique tribal jewelry, bronze statues, essential oils, and antique ceremonial pieces are only a few of the types of treasures to be found on our site. Add to this, India travel logs, photos, and film clips from our own journeys through India, and helpful hints for the first time India traveler, and you have an idea of what Portal to India has to offer.
We expect to be up and running by September 2008!

LOUISE AND STUART'S AMAZING INDIA
Name: Stuart and Louise
Namaste!
I, Stuart Sims, left the South at 19 and wound up in Chicago owning a New Age bookshop (store was founded in 1920 and frequented by many psychics and occultists). There I became interested in The Occult, Hinduism and Buddhism. In 1968 I went traveling around the West Coast and stayed a while in Haight-Asbury. I then moved to Boston where I lived for about 25 years (actually in Brookline, MA.). Sold Hippy posters, started various companies (including a woodworking company and a body oils business). Next I became very interrested in computers (bought and sold them, and programmed and maintained them for businesses).
In 1986, I discovered and fell in love with India and her people. I have been returning to Asia ever since. In 1989, I took time off and spent 2 years in India and Asia. I even managed a private audience with the Daili Lama of Tibet (a major highlight of my life).
Louise and I now live in the American South. Here I can grow exotic plants and orchids outdoors. Louise is a wonderful singer who loves opera and adores India and Asia as much as I do. We spend our time traveling and importing some very exotic items (I.E.): silks; statues; perfume oils; antiques etc. and we sell to decorators. Some years we spend 2 months in India and one month somewhere else in Asia: Thailand; Bali; Sri Lanka; etc. But we always return to our great love, India.
Louise writes great travel logs of our amazing adventures in India while we are traveling. We will gladly put you on our list if you send us your e-mail address.
Namaste!

This is very interesting..i'm not sure whether he is part of the 'game' but it looks like FOX have certainly used his stuff for the Fringe Viral - the connections to Fibonacci just seem way to coincidental to be coincidence! Also, this has given me even clearer ideas on "the pattern".

Hi Stuart,
Thanks for the invitation to write you. I looked up Fibonacci on wikipedia. I noticed the spiral connected with the apple poster is involved
with this as well. They said that the golden ratio was x2-x-1=0...is this
how you look at it? I'm still not sure about the leaf...looks like you could be put any number in there and it would be anything...sounds like all things
possible if you asked me.
May I ask how you came involved with this? If you don't want to answer ok.....have you been following Nathan Bozeman's blog ?..he works for holomov.
Thanks,

Just keep reading (the series 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, is found throughout nature (many flowers have petals machining the series, trees branch in line with Phi, on and on ).

Golden Ratio: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_ratio
Hi Master Quark, good to have you here. Interesting email you received, thanks for sharing.
Can I ask, how do you think the Golden Ratio (the pattern?) relates to the Fox TV Show Fringe? Are these 'anomallies' (geometric triangle, 6 fingered hand, apple core embryos etc) representative of nature evolving into it's true form, or is it evidence of man meddling with nature and playing 'God', if you will?
I'm no expert but perhaps in the Fringeverse, the Golden Ratio is indeed the "pattern" and we are looking at the structure, or the 'rulebook', of nature? Since it is found everywhere - in plants, architecture, music, humans, Galaxies etc - perhaps the GR is the very fabric of existence. The Fringe "pattern" seems to be highlighting the proportions of objects found in nature, as well as mixing..or 'hybridising' different elements which should (from our perspective) go together. What does this mean? Who is responsible..is it nature evolving or is someone doing something which is causing the Universe to become unbalanced?
Any insight Master Quark..if indeed this is you ;) Also, what is you relationship with the FOX network?:detective:

What are you trying to tell us Master QuarK? Or are you simply trying to figure out how to use the forum features? We don't have a spell check on forums..the little goofy people are called "smilies" (or emoticons), they''re there to spice up messages and convey emotions.

My humble opinion is that the golden ratio 1:1.68 is just one of the more significant mathematical structures that nature uses to construct the complex from the simple and indeed it is a pattern all right. I know on the macrocosm that we exist in it is everywhere.. I do not know if there has been any research on the atomic or molecular scale as in DNA. Patterns such as the ratio break down and have no meaning on the sub atomic level-quantum scale. In fact on the quantum scale humans brains break down as to any true understanding of what is actually going on. If you don't get dizzy thinking about quantum physics them you are on the wrong track!
As to my reading of the clues to The Fringe at the moment I'll keep my opinion to myself.
Someone suggest to the Master emotioncon? to get to work and add a good spell checker! Thanks for writing!

I'm really surprised to find so few people here. I'm thinking alot of folks are checking out the site, but wonder why we aren't getting any replies here.
At first I didn't want to 'play' or share, since I know so little about JJ's work (newbie here), but I thought, hopefully he will want to play to the newcomer as well as the extablished fan.

07-16-2008, 04:45 PM
I think once the show starts, then alot of people will make their minds up about whether or not they want to join a fringe fansite.You're right, we get tonnes of visitors, so hopefully more people will join in the fun once they game hots up and more viral is dished.
Don't worry, this is a new project for JJ Abrams..ALias and Lost are different shows (although when you watch Lost, you'll know why it holds many potential parallels in 'specific' parts) and so you don't have to be up on those shows to 'get' Fringe. Fringe is a like a blank slate for all of us..it's is it's own monster, one that could potentially tear up TV and commonly held perspectives.:D

07-16-2008, 08:40 PM
To be quite honest Saxon, I'm just as new as you are, in fact the first season of lost is probably sitting in my mailbox from blockbuster right now(I have never even seen a full episode). The only Abrams project I followed intensely was Cloverfield, and that was only after the movie changed my life(heh). Don't be afraid to jump in and be part of all of it, you have been extremely helpful in the last couple days and have pushed our search in new directions, seriously keep it up. And I haven't mentioned it before but welcome to the forums.
And about the visits, every time I am on there are at least ten guests on with me, and that's usually after midnight U.S Central. S I definitely think there is a buzz, but it hasn't transferred to members yet, but it will definitely.

I've been 'into' Firefly/Serenity for the past 6 years and before that X-files....I just didn't get started with LOST even though we had a regular thread devoted to it on the old fox firefly forum (the OB). I just felt an 'X-files' thrill when I saw some of the teasers/footage of Fringe, and decided right then and there I wanted to follow it from the beginning. I'm also looking forward to Dollhouse.
I love puzzles, treasure hunts, even Geocaching...all the clues and stuff...probably has alot to do with being married to a cop for over 25 years! hehe. I will post anything I glean, and especially anything I learn next week in San Diego!
thanks for the welcome!

The dot patterns at the bottom are braille and correspond to:
E H AC BA CD EE HI ADD
If you translate those to numbers based on A=1 then you get the sequence:
5 8 13 21 34 55 89 144
Which is of course fibonacci again. However, I wonder if there's any significance of the 144 being yellow not white?
brian
09-13-2008, 01:59 PM
The horn poster is pretty unremarkable.
The number on the horn is just phi (of golden ratio fame).
The braile along the bottom reads, "5 8 13 21 34 55 89 144," with the 144 highlighted, probably because it's 12 squared.
I'm wondering if the yellow lights in the background of the posters mean anything.

Btw, the last braille is yellow because I had my mouse hovered over it whilst taking the screenshot.
As for the yellow orbs/lights, that's probably the very first thing that intrigued me..even before the other viral elements..the yellow lights must mean something - actually, perhaps they tie in with the the heavy 'light' (http://fringe-forum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=391) references (http://fringe-forum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=391) which was hinted at throught the pilot? A form of 'remote observation', perhaps?

Two things are possible here. I noticed in other posters with braille, that there are "highlighted" yellow icons. What happens if we put all those together.
The other possiblity is if it did become hilighted on mouse over, maybe there was a link to something else.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

I posted this in another thread by accident as well.
In the frog poster the 4th sequence is yellow, reading 21 or BA.
In the flower poster the 5th sequence is yellow: reading 34 or CD
In the ram poster the 8th sequence is yellow (provided this is not a mistake): reading 144 or ADD.
Does this mean anything to anyone?
Kind of reminded me of how certain letters were circled in the A.I. posters.

Do you mean put them together to form an image?

Yeah, basically each of the braille icons linked to another piece of viral - e.g. icon one linked to the video of the 12 fingered man.
It's a shame that the site has changed now, so i can't really show you what I mean:p

check this symbol out. It flashed really quickly towards the end of the show..fortunately i was quicker

I think the first symbol I noticed was the twin fetuses in the apple, then I noticed a couple of others. There is a Delta symbol in the leaf and the Greek letter Phi on the back of the frog. I wonder what these symbols mean? In addition to the symbols, there is a set of glowing orbs surrounding each one. Hmmm! :shiny:

I think all of these symbols are elements of nature that have been tampered with - perhaps representing natural selection Vs forced evolution.
As for the Orbs, there's a bit of discussion/speculation on those here (http://fringe-forum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1070) and here (http://fringe-forum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=40), if you're interested. Personally I think they may represent a form of observation..remote observation. If the appear in the show itself then that will really be interesting.

Interesting notes i'd like to point out.
1) the bumper images before each commercial break showing an image - the point of light around the flower moves to a different location. could this be clock numbers?
2) there is only one occult bookstore in chicago that opened in 1920, which is The Occult Bookstore. I work there, my best friend owns it, and no Stuart Sims ever has.
Does anyone know who this REALLY is?

The Conch shell is a backwards 6. The second poster has a bunch of 6's in it with the 6 fingered hand the ring finger is highlighted. A ring is a circle meaning the end is the begaining, maybe. The triangle is also a kind of circle the end runs into the begaining. I am new at this but I have seen this quote some where in this program or on the fox website. I try to look at all of this using the K.I.S.S. princpile.

Those numbers are in the fibonacci sequence: 1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,55,89,144,233,377,610,987...

1. There has been mention of using a clock, but I don't think it's ever been confirmed that this will help us. Time will tell, I suppose.
2. And as far as I know, no one knows who this Stuart Sims really is.
Other than that, I'm from a Chicago suburb, so I just wanted to send you some Chi-Town love! :D

Are you speaking of the symbol by Olivia's head? I'm assuming so.
