New Tag-Line for FRINGE - ASK. IMAGINE. INVESTIGATE.

Fox has released some new promotional posters for Fringe which proclaim a new tag-line for the show. The photos also have some very interesting designs in them relating to angles, reflections, and refractions.

The other interesting feature of the second set of pictures is the same set of angles in the background, and the fact that the series is meant to form a cylinder.

Has anyone found anything interesting in the series when they are assembled in the cylinder shape?

New Evidence for Case_0091. This time with Tornado Action.

A new piece of evidence was added to the Imagine The Impossibilities Fringe site yesterday. Evidence_0007 is a .gif image of the word "PARKERSBURG" written in braille.

"PARKERSBURG" is a reference to Parkersburg, IA, where an EF5 tornado struck on May 25, 2008. When you click on one of the Braille dots in the final letter "R" you are directed to the two video files that are hosted at real online weather website called WeatherMatrix.net. Below you will find the video files in mention, that someone has downloaded and posted to Youtube.

This is a video from inside a bank of the tornado.

This a video viewing a house destroyed by the tornado.

What connection could this have to Case_91? Is this just more evidence of how far The Pattern has gotten out of control?

New York Times Article About FRINGE

The "Newspaper of Record", The New York Times is showing our favorite new show some love with a column written on Friday that paints a pretty positive light on the series. The article also contains some new comments from J.J. Abrams. Check it out here.

Fringe Pilot will be shown at The New York Television Festival

On Saturday, September 13th, the NYTVF and FOX will present a special screening event featuring “Fringe,” the anticipated new hour-long thriller from J.J. Abrams (“Lost”), Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman, the team behind “Star Trek,” “Mission: Impossible III” and “Alias.” The event begins with red-carpet arrivals of the stars and producers of the new series followed by a screening. After the screening, “Fringe” cast and producers will engage in a brief discussion about the show’s creation and production in New York City. “Fringe,” currently shooting on location in New York City, is a fantastical thriller about an unlikely trio who uncovers a deadly mystery involving a series of unbelievable events that may be a part of a larger, more disturbing pattern that blurs the line between the possible and the impossible. The series, debuting with a special extended series premiere Tuesday, September 9 (8:00-9:30 PM ET/PT) on FOX, stars Anna Torv, Joshua Jackson, John Noble, Lance Reddick, Kirk Acevedo, Mark Valley, Blair Brown and Jasika Nicole; and is produced by Warner Bros. Television and Bad Robot Productions.

JJ Abrams = Massive Dynamic

What is this we have here? J.J. Abrams has left us a little mystery on the Fringe Division site.

When you get to the site the sub title says;

Fringe Division: The Official Site of the Creative Team Behind The New Fox TV
Show "Fringe"
Sponsored by J.J. Abrams

Then when you scroll over the "Sponsored by J.J. Abrams" text it changes to;

Fringe Division: The Official Site of the Creative Team Behind The New Fox TV
Show "Fringe"
Sponsored by Massive Dynamic

If that weren't enough of a teaser take a look at the code that makes this little change happen.

"hansochange" - Do I detect a bit of a cross refrence? What do you make of this?

Massive Dynamics - Seeking Singularity?

I came across an interisting article on Engadget today. The article told of how the CTO of Intel believes that Singularity (the merging of man and machine) will be a reality by 2050. Here is what Intel CTO Justin Rattner actually said.

"The industry has taken much greater strides than anyone ever imagined 40 years ago," Rattner said. "There is speculation that we may be approaching an inflection point where the rate of technology advancements is accelerating at an exponential rate, and machines could even overtake humans in their ability to reason, in the not so distant future."

This got me thinking about what was said at Massive Dynamics by Nina Sharp, when she said:

"We've reached a point where science and technology have advanced at an exponential rate for so long... that it may be far beyond our ability to regulate and control it."

Could it be that Massive Dynamics is the entity behind The Pattern, and that their ultimate goal is a misguided effort to bring about a better world through singularity, no matter what the cost? Could this effort even be out of their control now?

Find the Pattern

There appears to be a significant amount of back story for Fringe related to patterns in nature. In particular the use of Fibonacci numbers is widely used in the promotional commercials for the show.

What will these equations tell us?

Are these numbers (1,1,2,3,5,8,13) going to be for Fringe what (4,8,15,16,23,42) are for Lost?
