In the first interactive part of the experience a laptop screen was shown full of fictitious email addresses. One of these was a hotmail address, it turned out it wasn't registered... so I registered it :) For the next few days I documented reactions to the minor ripple in the expanded Lost universe that is Zeke Klotho Freundlich. So anyways here's a link to a podcast talking about it, the recording also features some words from the creators of the 'Adopt a Space Monkey' / 'Aftermath 08' ARG.

I hope the story is interesting, apologies to anyone involved with making the ARG that was inconvenienced by my actions... it was all in the name of research, honest! ;) Namaste!

A true multimedia treasure-hunt, spanning tv, telephone, newsprint, a novel, the web and even confectionary. All of which lead to fresh information on the Hanso Foundation and the DHARMA initiative, adding more layers to the Lost mythos.

Season 3 begins on RTÉ 2 this week, though thanks to Bittorrent it's been possible to download the new episodes hours after their airing in the States. Maybe it's time tv series are released simultaneously worldwide the same way major cinema releases are (an upside of the fight against illegal digital distribution). Though in fairness RTÉ seem to be first station in Europe to show Lost s.3 (Sky won't have it for another 2 weeks).

Anyhows I'll still watch the episodes on RTÉ, pick up the boxset, play the video game etc... I'm eating my Apollo chocolate bar as I type this (didn't post it on whereisalvar.com though). Namaste.
