Interesting, Micaman! I can't remember if the content of either alpha or beta mp4 moved us forward. OP put a lot of creativity into them, so it would be good to revisit.

Indeed, I think we have a lot of loose ends from earlier stages... [and I'm really intimidated by the Game of Life challenge Smiley ]

For one, did anyone find the private key to the QR code found in the Banksy notes https://blockchain.info/address/1BZ3wRijRMcZ5u85fkPUgtpX3gbqBSEvQJ )? 0.3 btc is still there, I'm assuming no one has claimed it.

What about that fuzzy (text?) image in the alpha video?

As a diversion, I tried to do something with the audible notes in the Philip Glass scores on both alpha and beta, thinking about both morse and binary (Glass has been keenly aware of the binary quality of his compositions http://www.thefader.com/2012/05/01/new-music-an-interview-with-philip-glass ). On beta, it just sounds like 101010101010 for 8 bars.  On alpha, the notes go 001 011 (or 110 100)  for, I think, 30 bars. I looked at his musical scores for notes. I got nowhere with this line of thought. Perhaps OP just wanted to use a binary-sounding score for the videos--clever!. Micaman's spectrograms may hold more promise.

I also played for a while with the 404 string f8bf41177a5f5e808a7ccb648b51080b031f15ca8018d91a576263d6cc626eb6  and the .gif string  c524c32c714f1ffbbdcffd76bb3dbd7e3abe012a11bb81f2c4936018a6fd2490   but all conversions led to valid private keys to addresses with 0 bitcoin. (an educational exercise nevertheless)

Itod: on my screen, I see various blue hues behind $ATOSHI FALSE B-E-W-A-R-E.

alphabetacanary: Good find. I love those Dore illustrations. And thanks for the 3-D bunny from the stereogram. Wonder if the 3-D indicates something going forward.

Charon was the ferryman in Greek myth and Dante's Divine Comedy, charged with transporting newly deceased souls across the rivers Styx and Acheron to the afterlife. In Dore, he is pictured beating those in the river who are delaying their journey.  OP: "if you lose yourself / Godspeed to the bela7ed"

Uh Oh, that's exactly what I've been doing...
