* tl;dr: User zigochen on YouTube uploads mysterious videos starting 17 Jun 2012. First video is binary sequence which revealed a message about someone on the run from the CIA. Following videos contain similarly cryptic messages and the plot reveals secret agents, nukes and biological warfare. Zigo, the protagonist, aims to expose the conspiracy, but his task is not so easy...

--- Current grand unifying theory (based on TF, additional thoughts by xtregar, speculative)

@0 MorningStar (MS) is the Illuminati-tier organization behind the events of the Zigo ARG.
Celestial North seems to be a sub-branch of another project. Existence of a Celestial East suggests there may be a Celestial West and South as well.

@1 Zigo is good. He wants to expose the conspiracy.
His current whereabouts are unknown.
His most likely identity is Adrian/Red Raven.

@2 Athena is a human brain connected to a computer. She is created in a project called Royal Rife; headed by Black. She (as in her brain) can be controlled via 'hypnotic personality coding' to work for whomever does the coding. To our knowledge, she does not have the capacities of computer because she has the cognitive limitations of a human. However, she is effectively a mental slave, and also recall that human cognition far excels computers in certain types of tasks (especially so if this was in the Kennedy era). Asking Athena about her personal background, she tells us instead of her past life, most likely when she was still a human.
As of the last video (#A-013), her defection has been detected by her superiors and her ability to spy for us has been compromised. It could very well be that she had been "killed", but she also says 'please wait for me' via the mask picture.

I personally believe Athena was either captured and her brain extracted for use into RR, or she has false memories and/or is implanted with false memories (a la Rachel in Blade Runner).

The Athena-RoyalRife theory encapsulates, and makes redundant, all aspects of the previous sub-theories listed below.
@2a double crossing us against Zigo (or rather, double-crossing her agency in our/Zigo's favor)
Athena is supposed to be working for Morningstar, but she has gone rogue and has been helping us.
@2b brainwashed/mind-controlled; or
Like @2d, the hypnosis explains this.
@2c held captive and forced to work against Zigo.
In effect she is captive because she is nothing more than a brain.
@2d suffering from multiple personality disorder or a variant thereof, explaining her strange behaviour.
She is controlled via hypnosis and is often forced to work.


================= Unresolved issues ========================
***** What is the truth behind all this?
**** Who is... basically everybody? What is their role?
* Zigo
* The organizations (CN, MS, Primas)

*** Match all the information we have together
** #C4: What's the Gibson blue book?
** #0002 needs to be de-anagrammed and/or cracked
** #003 needs to be de-anagrammed
** #??????: Why is the baby crying?
** #A-009: Photograph (May 3 2012 SGPR)
** #Zigo please come home: have we missed something here?
* #006: Need translations from Spanish, French and Japanese. May be garbled because of Google translated text.
* #A-008: what the fuck?

========= Sandbox for working theories/characters ===============
=== #003 anagram

Paces three subjected. Flagged things. Amorality tons. Ash mimicked. Carapace stricter doll. Bunchiest trouser caging shin. Frets sow ignition. Game sensed. Anagram.
>Setups breached; eject. (???????????).  Too many trials. Made him sick. (Cardiac arrest something?). (????????????????????). (Fire got in its own?). Message end*. Anagram.

*Sounds like 'game sense', but that doesn't give a good anagram.
I used google.co.uk/translate to check the transcription, it's the exact same synthesized voice, but I may be still wrong.
I can't figure out some of the anagrams, could you guys try for some?

=== #Follow me video
"I know I don't have much time. Maybe a few weeks, maybe a few months. They've obviously made it (?). My throat is beginning to hurt. They say the shaking and (?) are the signs to look for. (?) and (?) veins in the legs. I've had them all for weeks. They assured that we were going to be put out together. I thought we were safe. I thought we we would all be okay. (?) a cure for ETS and we could finally go home."

=== When did Athena become a computerized brain and stop being a human?
We don't know exactly when Athena came to be. She claims to have went to university with Zigo (in either Edinburgh/Glasgow)

But there's also the possibility she was planted with false memories.

=== Who is Zigo?
By far the bulk of the evidence points to Adrian = Red Raven = Zigo.

However, there is some strange evidence...

If MS was looking for Z, assuming he is RR in 2010, why was he found working in 2011?
- Possibly, they didn't assume he was missing, maybe they did find him and observed him without telling him he was infected?
- When exactly did Z go AWOL? Was it really before Athena came into the picture? Or was it when #001 was posted (which I believe is Zigo's doing)
-

If zigochen is Zigo's account, and before Athena came into play, who posted the Zigo come home video anyway?
Also, #Zigo come home video, the text is
Why did Alicia have to die? You could have saved her and she would have got the vaccine. We have the cure and you could have used it.
Zigo, you are too selfish and that will be the death of you.
- Red Raven
Stupid of us to miss it. How does this tie in with the bomb or the bullet video #001-02?


=== Prima
Prima x's are teams representing different countries. This explains the different language broadcasts in, say, #006.
Prima Valiant: Scotland (from #A-008 video)
Prima Influenza: Spain (from #A-008 video)
Prima Hiroshima: Japan (hypothesized)
Prima Icarus: Greece?
Prima Value: US?
- what about German, French used in the broadcasts?
- Valkyrie Prima: Norway?

=== Origin Beta incident
- July 1 2010. Happened on an oil rig (minutes)
- The location is probably here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forties_oilfield)
- The #Zigo please video, the topleft circled point
- Darren M Black's diary #005, he says 'land is west we could swim' (although that's a bit far to swim, 110 miles?)
- #006: 'do not let anyone reach the shore'


=== Alicia (= White Fox?)
- A MorningStar agent, who died during the Origin Beta incident, 6 hours after infection. She was in a bunker in northern Scotland as she died. (#002-01)
- Zigo obtained her tapes she recorded as she was dying, which means Zigo must have found her.
- She reveals Michael (RF), Gus (RW), Zigo, Marcus (WW), etc. (#002-03)
- She found the location to a Valkyrie Prima base in Northern Scotland, but is edited out. Why are they against Valkyrie Prima?
- She thinks Blue Raven (Augustus) is the one that betrayed Zigo and Marcus.
- Where is #02-002?

=== White Fox (= Alicia West??) ===
- The WF-WW video. The voice has an Australian accent.
- "Red Fox is unable to contact you directly; seek her immediately and check your surrounding area".
As far as I know Alicia was the only female involved in the Origin Beta incident. But she can't be Red Fox beacause Red Fox is Michael Lake?
Sounds like a male voice, if White Fox is Alicia West, doesn't make sense? If Alicia is Australian, why would Zigo use a UK accent to voice her tapes?

=== White Wolf (=Marcus Dickson)
- WW-WF video. He has an English accent. Died in the Origin Beta oil rig incident. He requests a weaponization somewhere in a 100-150km in a forest, but is denied by WF.
- "This is White Wolf. B. and R. Raven lost" is what I think he says in the beginning.
- WW thinks Blue Raven and Red Raven are lost (dead?).
- He mentioned containment is important to Valkyrie Prima. Isn't Alicia against them somehow?
- and the Scottish government
- He says 'we do not need a repeat of Chernobyl or WW2', implying that nuclear bombs are a consequence of ETS growth, is it the only way to contain it?
- the 'bomb or the bullet' in #01-002?
- It's titled WW-WF, but he addresses the listener as Red Fox and asks for his commands.
- implies he is subordinate to RF.
- he also says 'you and WF know...'

=== MorningStar
I think this is the highest unit in the hierarchy, like what I would imagine the Illuminati would be like.
- #C4 video: man says they cannot let Morningstar find out about this.
- the Red Raven's assessment of Asanuma: suggests a lowest/highest recommendation implying MS is higher on the hierarchy
- Celestial North, and the now defunct Celestial East are sub-units of MS.

Companion piece to #A-013, presumably sent to us just before she got cut off. She sends us a spectogram message. Notably the mask says 'Please wait for me', suggesting her possible return in the future.
Accompanying .rar file (InterestingFiles.rar) contains five pictures. All pictures can be found in TF's imgur album http://imgur.com/a/iReC1.

hello copy.jpg: same picture as video
InductionCeremony2011DATABASECOPY.jpg: Same as below, except the watermark reveals this was from the MS database.
InductionCeremony2011DECPrintable.jpg: Shows a picture of four Japanese men (seats 1-4), and their names. They are members of Celestial North. An induction ceremony is held in Scotland, on 2011/Dec/23. An unpictured Sebastian holds the 5th seat of CN.
ObservationalMrAkiraAsanuma2008-2010.jpg: RR's report on Asanuma, for Morningstar, who has been monitoring Asanuma for 3 years since 2008. This places him as still working in 2011. Asanuma is said to have many political connections with high intellect and described as suitable for induction into MS and/or CN. The other files indeed do show Asanuma being inducted into the 4th seat of CN.
ROYALRIFE.jpg: Details the Royal Rife project, a human brain interface. We note that the project code is #BDFAAB152241. This of course decodes to ATHENA when we use the Polybius square. Confirms Athena as the subject.

-- Status: 8/10
Athena found a new file from Zigo's files. Then, she taps into some communications. We overhear Black (responsible for the RR project) being scolded by another man talking about Athena going rogue. Athena is caught eavesdropping, and her connection to that building is cut off. The man calls her a 'broken toy' and shuts her off. She may have been 'killed'.

In the background she gives away two spectogram messages, '7110' and 'ATHENA'. These were the passwords to the following rars.


--- #A-012 / http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZKc1B4or7O4
-- Status: 9/10
Same mask as previous, but has 'OB' on the forehead of the mask -- Origin Beta?
Left channel contains a reversed message, possibly instructions on how to solve the Polybius square, contained as spectrogram in the right channel.
The polybius square, along with the #C4 code revealed 'ORIGIN ALPHA'. The password came to be 'originomega' for the previous rar.

--- #A-011 / http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqbnYnW4CTU
-- rar file: http://www.mediafire.com/?11zc11jym192a50 (password: originomega) (second password (truth.rar): 7110)
-- Status: 7/10

Contains a strange technoesque beat. Left channel is a 26 long 'beat'. Right channel repeats a 4-2-5 beat. It's actually a steganograph in the spectrogram.
Left: http://www.mediafire.com/?11zc11jym192a50
Right: I WANT TO HELP YOU

The rar's contained another rar. The important files:
facesoffour.jpg: The Celestial North members' censored faces. See #A-013.
Truth.jpg: A heavily censored report about possibly the earlier prototypes of the ETS project. Possibly the earlier Origin series. We see references to AB-, 350 prior test subjects, and a request for 90 additional test subjects. Eerily, the permission is granted by the late JFK, placing this document in the 1960s.
MntsUncs.jgp: Minutes of a meeting, possibly Celestial North meeting. This is a huge discovery. Key points:
- Minutes were held August 1, 2010.
- Concerns the Origin Beta oil rig incident, and what they will do about it (recall previous videos; this happened in 2006)
- The subjects were Type-4 carriers who escaped and made it onto Scotland, infecting and/or killing the Prima Value members.
- #006 must be the warning issued to Prima Value to stop this from happening (which we know fails)
- The other groups retreated (Prima Influenza, Prima Valiant, Prima Icarus, Prima Hiroshima) and the Origin Beta experiment was officially ended.
- The Prima Value team was used as test subjects to test the efficiency of the ETS virus as a weapon. Supposedly this ETS cannot be stopped by shooting the infected. Of these, Adrian Smith = Red Raven was found to be especially resistant. We learn that his whereabouts are unknown, and CN is still chasing him down.
- Red Fox (Michael Lake), Red Wolf (Gus Irons), Blue Raven (Augustus Austin) White Wolf (Marcus Dickson), and White Fox (Alicia West) were infected and died in 3, 5, 5*, 6 and 10 hours.
- Inconsistency: Blue Raven is listed in the next paragraph to die in 1 month. It seems this is intentional because the "four" is overtyped by "five" in the preceding lines.
- Darren M. Black, Martin Young, Blue Raven (Augustus Austin), Red Raven (Adrian Smith) is noted as being the ETS resistant AB- types, and they die in 15 hours, 3 days, 1 month. Red Raven is still alive. We suspect he may be Zigo and is responsible for the #001 video.
- Darren M. Black seems to be a codename, because references are made to 'the Black working on Origin Beta', his infection to ETS and death, and also a 'new Dr. Black' in service. Perhaps DMB is a positional title given to the researcher working on the Origin projects.
- Celestial North is ordered to track down RR and monitor him.
- Dr. Black recommends Origin Beta be closed and enter the next phase, public trials.
- The chairmembers agree, and Dr. Black is ordered to begin Origin Omega.

-- Status: 3/10
-- hidden track MP3: http://www.mediafire.com/?pryn04aauaod31t

Video is a slideshow of previous white mask photos. The final picture is a freakier montage of the others. Added thought: perhaps Athena has multiple personality disorder, and the various masks signify her different personae?
Audio comes in two channels. Right channel is the obvious one prima facie. Transcript as follows (shamelessly ripped from TF)

"I recall A dark thing the noise of hell A scream
I recall A dark thing that I noticed in A dream
I recall A dark noise that visits me each night
I recall A dark noise that filled me up with fright
I recall A dark noise that peirced me like A bite
I recall A dark noise A doll broken by the light
I recall A dark thing waiting always waiting
I recall A dark thing watching always watching
I recall A dark thing a song that it did sing
I sang back to the dark thing and I felt that it was listening
I recall A dark noise A thunderous monterous yell
I recall A dark noise it reminded one of hell
I recall A dark noise screaming in my dreams
I recall A dark noise tearng at the seams
I recall A dark thing that was always listening
I recall A dark thing patient quiet it wasnt even withering
I recall A dark thing for once I was not left whimpering
I recall A dark thing I called it for a chat
I recall A dark thing in the shape of a dead cat
I called for the dark thing this horor had to end
I spoke to the dark thing I made A brand new friend"

However, there is a hidden track in the left audio channel. It is reasonably assumed that this is the real message intended. The audio is very weak and must be amplified, but suffers from clipping when amplified. Notable excerpts include (shamelessly ripped from TF again)
"i wish i could dream to escape get away form this hell for just one second"
"to call upon an angel that wears too many faces only her conceious mind is unaware of places reconfigured to help" (1)
"a lesson learned but never tought in classes"
"wait for athena to fall from grace to land on the earth and be in pain"
"005 and remember homecoming is important" (2)
(1) supports the multiple personality @2d and/or brainwash/mind-control theory @2b. (2) seems to suggest that #005 and the #Zigo please come video have clues that we've missed.
Furthermore, TF messaged Athena about whether she had posted the #Zigo please and the #??? videos and was responded with "NO NO NO NO" etc. Also, Athena claimed no knowledge of the #C4 video.

-- Status: 6/10

Note that the mask is not Athena's.
The video is ostensibly silent, but amplification and reversal yields the hidden message. Transcript follows.
----------------------------------
// A: is Athena. B: Unknown man's voice.
[Left channel]
A: They're getting closer. They've seen one of Michael Lake's medical reports. They mentioned Scalefire and the date 14 Februrary 2006.
B: Get in their way. Delay them. If Morningstar heard about this could get ugly.
A: Yes sir.
B: What's that light?
A: Nothing. Sir? Would you like me to call a car to pick you up?
B: Athena. Above all else, they cannot know about Morningstar. I don't want to see the kind of mess this could become. And yes, send a car. I need to speak to Philip.
 [Right channel]
A: Gibson, Blue Book, 102, first line, first two words
----------------------------------
First, this is strong evidence that Athena is working against us. The "delay them" means us, the players of the ARG. TF says, right before the release of this video, he messaged Athena about Scalefire, 14/2/2006 and other things (thus revealing to Athena that we cracked the .rar file containing the medical report). This therefore places the occurrence of the recording to the current period (unlike other past videos in, say, 2006).
The 'What's that light?' is really suspicious. Is she a triple-agent? Working against her boss?
The Gibson blue books seems to refer to the Gibson mentioned in #001. Probably the Gibson is a reference to William Gibson, author of Neuromancer. But we don't know what the blue book means as of yet.

As of this version the latest Athena video where she was acting 'normally'.
In this video she says she searched on Zigo's computer for the codes on the #Follow me video. She found clues leading to a notebook titled 'Origin' and 'Beta'. She searched these keywords again on Zigo's computer and found password locked folders and a photograph.
The photograph is titled 'May 3 2012 SGPR' and shows a sepia-tone low quality photograph of two men, eyes censored out.

As of yet we do not know what the photo is for.

The creepiest video. Plausibly, another different mask video -- but we see near the end, the mask picture reverts back to Athena... it seems the third party prepended the creepy part to Athena's very short transmission. Athena asks if we got into the .rar file from #005 yet. However, the rest of the video is pretty much a mystery. It is separate in two channels. The video is tagged, with 'Athena', '3423441131'.
In retrospect after the Royal Rife theory, this could be Athena's dreaming -- explains the stream of consciousness and background music. The point where the music stops is when she wakes up.

Transcript (tentative, I missed a lot of things, you should listen yourself)
---------------------
[Left Channel]
(background music: Bach: Partita #2 In C Minor, BWV 826 - 3. Courante, spillover from R channel)

Athena: Message ends. Sorry. I'll. Fix. It. I. Promise.
(at this point the mask changes to Athena's normal mask)
This is Athena. Did you manage to get into the password locked file yet? I need to. I want to know what is in it. Please, tell me. Athena, signing off.

Again another alternative mask video. Probably a replacement for #A-006. This is another text-to-speech long string of numbers, but not binary this time. Nobody as of yet has figured its meaning yet. It's Athena's voice, however. Notably, there is a crying baby in the background. TF asked "I also asked Athena why she posted this video and how it was relevant she would not say."

x from /x/ (lol, xzibit) decoded the message, which was octal. It came out thus:
"I didn't want to burn it down. It's all gone now. It's all gone now. It's all gone noe now. No more Vgw. It's all gonlkyrie Prima. It's all gone now. I didn't want to burn it down. It's all gone now. I didn't want to burn it down. It's all gone now. It's all gone now. It's all gone now. It's all gone now. It's all gone now. No more Valkyrie Prima. It's all gone now. I didn't want to burn it down. It's all gone now. I didn't want"

A message lamenting the loss of Valkyrie Prima, via fire. We do not know who was responsible for the message, however.

-- rar: http://www.mediafire.com/?l1yq4m5c8jaiswq (password: scalefire)
Another normal Athena video. She comments on the #Follow me video codes and searches on Zigo's computer finding a passworded RAR. She asks for our help to crack the .rar, the password of which was found to be 'scalefire' (mentioned in the #Zigo please come video). She also finds a picture containing a string of numbers. The codes mentioned in the video are:
43-13-11-31-15-21-24-42-15
W2HOWLINGWIND
06992465M8IA -> rar archive found by Athena
AUG75686659F2I -> picture of the 43-.. number string. Notably, Athena reads the AUG as August (a date?)
E65566996K32TING -> leads to the photo in #A-009.
NUKEONLYWAY

The .rar contains
1) Michael Lake's censored medical report (revealing his codename "Red Fox")
2) Michael Lake's uncensored report, by Darren M. Black.
3) 'A Bandage Hotel Tune.jpg': the words 'trust no one' repeated many times.
4) Censored photograph of Michael Lake

Still don't know what the bandage hotel is (not even Neutral Milk Hotel, lol.) Cursory anagram examination didn't reveal much.

Athena presumably responds to PMs sent to her (by Thanatos?) via zigochen account. She says:
- She knows Zigo went overseas in the military.
- She believes Zigo contacted her because they are close and Zigo's parents are dead. She is now looking after the sick paralyzed Zigo.
- Zigo deserted the military and Athena cares a lot for him, like a brother.
- She states her mission as helping Zigo which means helping us (the ARG players).

TF mentioned that her zeal for helping Zigo is already suspect here. Pretty straightforward, nothing hidden here, methinks.

Athena responds to other PMs.
- Zigo was looking at over 1000 websites about WW2 Japan bombings.
- Athena reveals she was studying anthropology and Zigo was studying literature. When they became good friends
- They kept in touch through email letters etc. during his military, but protocol meant Athena doesn't know anything.
- I messaged Athena, she said she went to Glasgow University but then later to Edinburgh. Makes sense (other links to Scotland).
- A few hours before we (the players) met Athena, Zigo contacted Athena seeking her help in getting the truth out.
- Zigo cannot communicate or walk, he is paralyzed.
- She again mentions her gratitude towards our help.

Athena plays us another recording of the late Alicia. Transcript as follows
"Michael and Gus, no, sorry, codenames 'Red Fox' and 'Red Wolf', they are good friends. I don't think they really want any part of this whole thing. I hope the are safe. Zigo and Marcus - if you find these tapes, I have to tell you something. I think Augustus, I mean, 'Blue Raven', is the one that betrayed you. I am certain he is a mole. If you ever speak to them, those men who have been chasing, I mean tell them I'm sorry. I know I'm probably going to hell for all of this, but I want them to know I'm sorry. I really am. If it helps, I found the location to a Valkyrie Prima base. It was near us. It was located near Scotland in" -- [message end]
Seemingly the message ends here, but once you amplify the rest, you can hear Athena:
"Sir? Cut it edited. They don't have it. No, sir. I am happy to serve you-"

This is more evidence that Athena is working against us @2. She doesn't want us to know the location of the Valkyrie Prima base, so she edited it out.

Another Athena relay.
- Who is Alicia? Athena guesses a colleague of Zigo.
- What is Celestial North? Athena doesn't know, but when she says 'Celestial North' at 0:31, her voice goes deeper.
- Later, Athena says to someone "Maybe it was a glitch? Please don't get angry at me. I'm sorry".
- What is DTS? No such thing.
- However, ETS exists and is a code name for something. Zigo's computer has incoherent files on it.

The glitch is suspicious. What it means is yet unclear, but probably she's apologizing to her boss (the one in the #c4 video). Does that mean Athena is using a voice changing device?

The video starts with a UK female voice.
"All of the clues are right in front of you, several times over. But you refuse to look for them, you refuse to get the information. You'd rather not hand it over just like ... [fades out]"
Now we hear Athena's voice, speaking US female accent.
She says you need to use your eyes and ears.
We first hear that Zigo is ill. Athena is 'relaying' for Zigo.
She wants us to figure out videos #005, #003 and #0002 for her.


Notably, there is a hidden message. Athena's voice says "I need help. Please. Please help me." To get this, separate the two stereo tracks into mono, invert one and play back both together. Is this actually the owner of the British accent at the start? Athena's hidden message (theory @2c?)?

The last video during the Zigo period. An emergency broadcast of sorts, in Spanish, French, English, Japanese then Spanish again. The non-English parts are machine translated (presumably because the ARG maker doesn't really speak anything else). We are led to believe this is the 2006 incident, the same one in the previous recording, the one alluded to in Black's diary.

There is some jazz improv-like piano in the background. This was also heard in another video. The relevance of the music is unknown.



The English portion's transcript follows. The voice is in a Scottish accent, hinting that this event takes place in Scotland.

"This is Broadcast 3-4. You already know your orders. You are to watch the shores. Do not let anyone come onto the shore. The other team has been ordered to retreat to the sea. Do not under any circumstances remove your gas masks, or let go of your rifle. You are to shoot anything on sight. There can be no spread during this test. If any orders come from Celestial North, they will be designated Bishop to Queen's 3. Only you and Celestial North know this designation. This is for your safety and the public's.
This is the end of the English language broadcast. Moving to Japanese language broadcast."

Video spoken with a text-to-speech software containing long string of binary numbers. Decodes to the following:
"Hiding in Aokigahara. CIA wants me dead. Carrol [sic?], King, Gibson, and Asimov all hiding. Lost or dead. Not known. Waiting for signal. End will come. Prepare brothers and sisters. Prepare and wait for the signal from Celestial North."
The first video. I suspect this may be Zigo -- I messaged Athena if she knew about Zigo's friends in the military and she said Zigo referred to them as authors, and they are good friends of his. Zigo needed to use codenames because of censoring of communication, as the only way to speak to Athena about his friends. Therefore, I think this is a message from Zigo to Athena.
