PERPLEX CITY, SEASON ZERO |
Theories
- The audio overdub may be the results of the social study by Sarah Covington mentioned in Errorlog 5957496696.cache. The title "Subject: Civilisation and Late Stage Urbanisation, A Phase 2 Consumer Transition" sounds like it would fit this overdub.
- The video was shot in Shinjuku, a Tokyo entertainment district. The pictures in the images section are proof of that theory: (the right parts are from the video), Comparison 1 and Comparison 2
Content
- Original 2-16-05 video available here
- Flashes of dates and names of US newspapers:

- Voiceover to the video is transcribed as:
"There is a theme that has risen again and again in our studies across all relevant disciplines. The similarities between our peoples are truly profound and consequently serve to make the differences all the more shocking. It is as though our modern-day societies took our collective cultural experiences - all of our shared histories - and learned from it completely different lessons. One could expect, then, a feeling of alienation from the subjects of our studies. This is not so. Our researchers have, instead, come to identify very strongly with their counterparts on the other side of the current. The rhythm we occupy seems to be a long period of comfortable familiarity, with a counterpoint of sudden, and often sharp, culture shock."
- The newspapers named have classified ads mentioning The Cube.
