Re: ROOPHLOCH, moji (zaibatsu), 10/01/2019
------------------------------------------------------------
Potential spoiler alert: this post looks at user moji's
roophloch entry, which calls for some investigation on the
part of the user.
I don't dig deep or reveal everything, but if you want to do
*all* the digging on your own, you'll want to read the post
and stop reading and go to the source:
gopher://zaibatsu.circumlunar.space:70/0/~moji/phlog/20193009-details.txt
Moji's post was an audio file, filled primarily with
clicking sounds in the foreground. The first thing I
did was to save it with "s" in VF-1, and examine the
meta/header with "strings" at the command line. I'll let
you do that now.
The meta data was very much aimed at the gopher reader.
Having "Port=70" and "Sundog=moji" in there, for example,
meant I found what I was supposed to find.
The meta data also included lat and long coords, which I
converted to a map location southeast of London, in a park.
The "ARTIST=" tag revealed what I was hearing. It made
perfect sense.
I'm thinking the "TITLE=" tag is another clue. There seems
to be more than one source for the clicking, and they must
be trading something... information, attraction, I'm not
sure. Maybe there are 3 sources?
I'll look forward to more from the author when it's time
for that!
