Jonas from the Unfiction forums picked up this postcard in Bologna Airport. (Thank Jonas for the pics)


Speculation


Content

(This is provided by oneliiivewire on the forums)

On the front, there is a painting. You're right about 
the windows- they stick out and definitely *seem* to be binary 
code or something. Not so sure about them being jibberish- 
makes me think perhaps they want to lead you on and on and on 
because... 

I flew all over the BACK side of the card and haven't deciphered 
anything yet. On the left-hand side is the note starting "my 
friends-" At the bottom is the authentic "Sente" signature, 
underneath it www.perplexcity.com upside-down. At the very bottom
in small print the card reads: "Image on reverse: 'Perplex City 
Sleeps' (artist unknown), #02 in a series of postcards depicting 
the city at night. The full set is available from the Academy gift 
shop."

Ok, how convenient that the artist is "unknown", and where is "The 
Academy"?!

Moving on: The right side of the card gets trickier. Upper right, 
I'm sure you've all noticed 2210, then the black and white 
postage-stamp strange looking square. UNDERNEATH that square is 
a series of very very small numbers, which have had me wrapped 
up for quite a while!! The series is: 221545484848465100503215

Had to look long and hard and battle tiny text for that one. Any 
clue as to what THAT means?! Now for the blackened text! Underneath 
"Mc, please expedite global release. S" are five lines of blackened 
text. I went all over my town today putting these under black light, 
red lens, green lens, backlighting them with high-powered 
opthalmologist's equipment- THE WORKS, and have decided that on this
mass-produced, photo-copied card, the lines, comprised of small red 
and green dots (thanks to a high-powered lens...), are only there to 
mislead you. I think the windows on the front side in the painting 
are more...."
