===4.18.07=== <br />
At 06:14:23 GMT, yearzero.nin.com updated the page to include a link to "resources" [http://yearzero.nin.com/resources/index.html] This "year zero resources" page included links to ninwiki.com, ETS, and opensourceresistance.net.<br />
<br />
===4.16.07===<br />
The websites presumably inaccessible until the release of ''[[Year Zero]]'' are now up and running. On [[Free Rebel Art]], a phone call received by submitting information quotes Federal Statute 24.2.1 which corresponds to Free Rebel Art, this is probably the reason for the numbers on all the [[World of Year Zero]] pages.<br />
<br />
===4.13.07===<br />
At a meeting in the streets of LA on April 13th, men in a strategically placed van gave everyone ammunition boxes filled with Resistance propaganda (fliers, stencils, buttons, stickers) and some people received boxes with cell phones. The phones had a note: "If you are 18 or over, and will be in the Los Angeles area Wednesday, April 18th we need you. If not, give this hardware to someone else. This phone is your membership card to the resistance. Within the next few days, we will use it to contact you with details of this first resistance meeting. It will get you and one friend through the door. Keep it charged, and keep it with you at all times. Most importantly, there are only 100 minutes on these phones, so use them up and you'll be SOL. We'll be in touch." <br />
<br />
===4.12.07===<br />
[[Open Source Resistance]] is updated.<br />
<br />
===4.12.07===<br />
New page found, [[One Country At A Time]].<br />
<br />
===4.4.07===<br />
Two events happened on this day: <br />
#Year Zero was leaked today, and is available on various torrent sites, as well as being available for listening in its entirety on [http://yearzero.nin.com the Year Zero website.] <br />
#A new phone number was discovered today on the back cover of the [[Year Zero]] album, below a logo and piracy warning of the United States Bureau of Morality. The number is: [[18664456580|1-866-445-6580]], and upon calling you hear a pre-recorded message about your eminent re-education for the possession of illegal materials.<br />
<br />
===3.14.07===<br />
Using names and codes found on buttons at the ''Year Zero'' listening parties, new 'shards' have been found for [[The Mailstrom]]. They're currently being used and tested and a new site has been discovered: [http://www.themailstrom.com/gasoline_UUu891.htm here]<br />
<br />
===3.13.07===<br />
The lithograph given to those who pre order Year Zero at the listening parties have a link on them to a website [http://www.themailstrom.com/ here]. On that page a link to [http://www.themailstrom.com/info.htm here]. Using information on the page, another site has been found [http://www.themailstrom.com/gallows_Y3RG7J.htm here]. New wiki pages are [[Mailstrom]]<br />
<br />
===3.12.07===<br />
An Art Is Resistance flier handed out at the 3/11/07 London show lead to a location underneath a bridge, revealing a large billboard that had operation swamp 0000 written on it. This led to the discovery of a new site [http://www.operationswamp0000.net here]. Clues on the website revealed a new website [http://www.operationchipsweep.net/ here]. New wiki pages for these sites are: [[Operation Swamp 0000]], and [[Operation Chip Sweep]]<br />
<br />
===3.07.07===<br />
Several USB drives given out before the [[Nine Inch Nails]] concert in London were revealed to contain both the high-resolution and low-resolution versions of the "[[Survivalism (song)|Survivalism]]" video. The video had led to the discovery of three more sites.<br />
<br />
===3.06.07===<br />
[[Trent Reznor]] has told ''Kerrang!'' magazine he is making the concept of ''Year Zero'' into a Movie <br />
[[http://www.kerrangradio.co.uk/Article.asp?id=362865&spid]]<br />
<br />
===3.03.07===<br />
A radio leak of "[[The Beginning of the End]]" was recorded and put into MP3 format.<br />
<br />
===2.28.07===<br />
In the ''[[Beside_You_In_Time_(halo)|Beside You In Time]''] Blue-Ray booklet, the phrase 'securebroadcastinformatics' appears. Lo and behold, the latest ''Year Zero'' Web site:<br />
[[Secure Broadcast Informatics]] (http://www.securebroadcastinformatics.com/) ''which was already discovered and sends you to'' http://www.solutionsbackwardsinitiative.net/pilgrims/<br />
<br />
I read recently that a radio DJ/program director Alan Cross from 102.1 CFNYFM The Edge in Toronto found a copy of the track "[[The Good Soldier]]" on his desk. I wrote him begging to share it if it's true.<br />
<br />
update:<br />
I got an email back from Alan Cross; he said that he has no idea where that rumor came from. Although even the official website for the radio station he works for mentions his personal review of "The Good Soldier" as being a "Moody, slower. Great grind-y bass synth groove. A natural pick for a single!" which can be found [http://www.edge.ca/station/blog_ongoing_history_of_new_music.cfm?bid=8236 here].<br />
<br />
===2.25.07===<br />
An [[:Image:Invitation.jpg|image]] found on the USB drive containing "[[In This Twilight]]" shows the famous Hollywood sign broken down and the words "In Memoriam" underneath. This led to [[Hollywood in Memoriam]][http://www.hollywoodinmemoriam.org/]. <br />
<br />
===2.24.07===<br />
A hidden link in the lower center part of the [http://symphonyofnoise.com/nails/yearzero/ Symphony of Noise] webpage revealed and confirmed the album art for ''Year Zero.'' It is essentially the same image that was previously released, however it contains "Nine Inch Nails: Year Zero" in the top left hand corner. <i>NOTE: Symphony of Noise is a fan site, so the different cover version is most likely fan art.</i><br />
<br />
===2.22.07===<br />
New leads are coming in fast and heavy now.<br />
# First, after the show in Paris, France, a new site was discovered thanks to a "red flier" that was distributed. The site is [[Art Is Resistance]] or http://artisresistance.com.<br />
# Then, on the AIR site, there are many links, pages and even some downloads like avatars. All incorporate the [[Resistance Logo]], which can also be seen on Reznor's latest concert jacket.<br />
# A video is posted on [http://yearzero.nin.com], showing among other little hidden bits, a video of [[The Presence]].<br />
# Finally, the newest news: http://yearzero.nin.com/0024 reveals the album cover for ''Year Zero.''<br />
<br />
Currently, there are a few new leads and songs!<br />
# [[U.S. Wiretap]], a brand new website that was found as a result of typing in the government agency refered to on:<br />
# [[12163331810]], a new phone number that was found through a spectrograph of file:<br />
# [[2432.mp3]], a file that was included in an USB flash drive that also contained:<br />
# [[Me, I'm Not]], the latest leaked song by Trent and co.<br />
# [[In This Twilight]], hot off the USB from the Manchester show.</div>Mfaithhttps://www.nin.wiki/index.php?title=Talk:Art_Is_Resistance&diff=9656Talk:Art Is Resistance2007-04-11T09:33:36Z<p>Mfaith: /* Wikify */</p>

<div>===Regarding the dates provided by soonerlater===<br />
(please, someone organize this discussion page later :P)<br />
<br />
I think that the first dat doesn't matter. It's just soonerlater's mother's birthday. The real thing is that she died in the Oklahoma attack and that is the reason why soonerlater disagree with TheWarden.<br />

<br />
And on the 19th of April 1995 a truck bomb at Federal Building in Oklahoma City explodes, killing 168 in an anti-government movement. It seems to fit the motive of the thread, make art not war.<br />
<br />
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oklahoma_City_bombing<br />
<br />
--[[User:Quentin|Quentin]] 17:11, 22 February 2007 (PST)<br />
<br />
:"It seems to fit the motive of the thread, make art not war." It does? How does the bombing tie in to art? I don't see that bombing as an act of making art instead of war, which is what it would need to be to fit any kind of motive to the thread; I don't see how you're connecting that bombing to any kind of motive. Further, should that kind conjecture be on the main page for this entry? That's the kind of assumption that belongs on the Talk page, but to see it in the actual entry only takes away from the credibility of the page/site. --[[User:Tsguitar|Tsguitar]] 22:08, 22 February 2007 (PST)<br />
<br />
That was just a short summary, motive may not be the correct word. If you have been following this since the beginning, there have been many violent acts of resistance throughout the sites leading up to year zero. Everything to do with Year Zero to date has been fictional and set in a future time. This is the first instance I have seen a date mentioned on the Year Zero sites that is set in real time. Originally I put all of this info into the talk section of the article, but after reading the theory section already on display I decided to move it to the main page. I didn't create the theory page, but I thought it was less logical then the discoveries I had made so I shifted it there. You might not see the connection with the bombings, however it is a violent act of resistance against a government force, much in tune with the theme of yearzero. I see the boy using his mothers death as an example of where violent acts of resistance cost unnecessary lives, in response to TheWardens comment. The whole thread is an argument about art as a form of resistance compared to actual violent acts. Another reason I had moved it to the main page is that barely any people visit the talk section unless its to have a whinge, so out in the open in a "theories" section people can draw there own conclusions and maybe put a few more peices together. When someone creates a more indepth theories page surrounding the yearzero events, im sure it can be moved there. The point of this wikipedia isn't just to collect and display facts but to also help solve the puzzle.--[[User:Quentin|Quentin]] 22:41, 22 February 2007 (PST)<br />
<br />
:I'm not so sure that violent acts in resistance to the government is what the AIR site suggests. The "Tools" page definitely offers other alternatives. Simply the title of the site implies a more civil disobedience (or at least a less violent one). When you add "make art not war" to your musing, you imply that the Oklahoma bombing is art, not war. I have a hard time with that and I'm not sure that's what you meant. Good point about the purpose of this Wiki. I hadn't thought of it quite like that as a writer, though I've been using this quite like that as a reader. --[[User:Tsguitar|Tsguitar]] 22:57, 22 February 2007 (PST)<br />
<br />
No the AIR site opposes it, as do most of the people on the artist forum. When I said "make art not war" I was coming from the point of view that up til now most of yearzero has been about violent resistance, where as now people are coming forward who are against it. Going along with the theory, the bombing was just an instance soonerlater used to say "violence doesn't help the cause, it only causes more pain" in response to TheWarden's view. I tried to simplfy my theories so i didnt clutter the theory page but it seems it has caused it to come across meaning something different then what was intended. I've rewritten the last part of that paragraph to try make it a little easier to explain --[[User:Quentin|Quentin]] 23:12, 22 February 2007 (PST)<br />
<br />
:I see. I changed what you wrote on the main page in order to make things a bit more clear. --[[User:Tsguitar|Tsguitar]] 00:24, 23 February 2007 (PST)<br />
<br />
:The Oklahoma Bombings were also looked at as a government conspiracy to cover up other things. Therefore, the whole backdrop of the album (the U.S. Gov't wagind war on the U.S. citizens) can be seen through this event. It could be when the government started to 'wage' war on the citizens or to cover up it's own mistakes or actions... I dunno, haven't done enough research on it, but it's interesting... I have continually tried to find if anyone that was killed in the bombings was also born on the dates given for the child's mom... Any info? [[User:Jgrizzy89|Jgrizzy89]] 17:42, 22 February 2007 (PST)<br />
<br />
<br />
I believe the actual identy of the childs mother is unimportant, the dates just there to link us to the bombing. Year Zero is a fictional environment, so i think the point of mentioning a real world incident would be to tie current real-world events to the possible grim future of Year Zero and give it some weight. Possibly the whole idea behind Year Zero is to give us a glimpse of hell, then point out what's really going on in the world that's driving us to a similar fate, and what we should do about it.<br />
--[[User:Quentin|Quentin]] 17:56, 22 February 2007 (PST)<br />
<br />
This is probably a -really- big stretch, but in the dates listed, if you add up the digits of the first few numbers (10, 1967), it adds up to... 24 (1 + 1 + 9 + 6 + 7). If you then look at "Apr 19, 1995" seperate that into "Apr 19" and "1995", convert April to it's month number (4) and add up the digits to the first one (4 + 1 + 9), you end up with 14. The sum of the last few digits (1 + 9 + 9 + 5) are also 24, leaving you with 24.14.24. Total stretch, but track 14 on Year Zero is Another Version of the Truth, the fourteenth character being the last one: 'h'. --[[User:Drake|Drake]] 23:45, 22 February 2007 (PST)<br />
<br />
Thats a pretty good observation. One more thing about that site is the dates all read 02/03/000 in both the posts and the reproductions in the background, unlike on the rest of the forum where 02/10/0000 is reflected as 02/04/0000. An exception to this though is Iridium's post where 02/03/0000 which appears to reflect as 02/00/0000... no day? <br />

===About The Warden===<br />
Has anyone considered the fact that this TheWarden person might be The Angry Sniper? His writing style seems rather similar, both in the gratuitous use of profanity and the extremely high levels of condescension present. If he's not the Sniper himself, perhaps he's another veteran from the 105th?<br />
<br />
Just a thought.<br />

I think the .38 to .45 is a reference to gun calibers personally, not religion. Oh and see how they mention World War 4 in there, asif world war 3 has already happened? cool.<br />

:done, and done. Thanks for the refurb. It does look a lot cleaner. Being more organized I would like to add a little more to this article.

This may relate to biblical passages:<br />
<br />
38: John said to him, "Teacher, we saw someone driving out demons in your name, and we tried to prevent him because he does not follow us."<br />
<br />
and<br />
<br />
45: And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter into life crippled than with two feet to be thrown into Gehenna. <br />
<br />
''note: both the .38 and the .45 are gun types. the above biblical references are probably not relevant. sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.''<br />

These dates could be a phone number, or manipulated to find the next clue.<br />

<br />
Another way to look at the numbers is that .38 to .45 is a reference to gun calibers, and not religion. Suggesting TheWarden wants them to amp up the damage.<br />
<br />
The dates given by soonerlater about his mothers death may link to the fact that on the 19th of April 1995 a truck bomb at a federal building in Oklahoma City exploded, killing 168 in an anti-government movement. This seems to fit in with the idea that some people on the thread are choosing to show their resistance through art and not violence due to the loss of innocent life violent events can cause.<br />
<br />
Info on this event can be found at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oklahoma_City_bombing<br />
<br />
Something else worth mentioning is that CazzazaKid says "he just wanted to tell us AIR has flatlined, not start WW4", suggesting that World War 3 has already happened.<br />
<br />
Also note that the Artist topic linked via the Art Is Resistance website contains text in the background which when compiled is the same passage from Slaughterhouse-Five found on the Wire-Tap website.<br />

Jan. 10, 1967: ...We have chosen to fight a limited war in Vietnam in an attempt to prevent a larger war--a war almost certain to follow, I believe, if the Communists succeed in overrunning and taking over South Vietnam by aggression and by force.

===2.28.07===<br />
In the [[Beside_You_In_Time_(halo)|Beside You In Time]] Blue-Ray booklet, the phrase 'securebroadcastinformatics' appears. Lo and behold, the latest Year Zero Web site:<br />
[[Secure Broadcast Informatics]] (http://www.securebroadcastinformatics.com/) ''which was already discovered and sends you to'' http://www.solutionsbackwardsinitiative.net/pilgrims/<br />
<br />
I read recently that a radio DJ/program director Alan Cross from 102.1 CFNYFM The Edge in Toronto found a copy of the track "[[The Good Soldier]]" on his desk. I wrote him begging to share it if it's true.<br />
<br />
update:<br />
I got an email back from Alan Cross; he said that he has no idea where that rumor came from. Although even the offical website for the radio station he works for mentions his personal review of The Good Soldier as being a "Moody, slower. Great grind-y bass synth groove. A natural pick for a single!" which can be found [http://www.edge.ca/station/blog_ongoing_history_of_new_music.cfm?bid=8236 here].<br />
<br />
===2.25.07===<br />
An [[:Image:Invitation.jpg|image]] found on the USB drive containing [[In This Twilight]] shows the famous Hollywood sign broken down and the words "In Memoriam" underneath. This lead to [[Hollywood in Memoriam]][http://www.hollywoodinmemoriam.org/]. <br />
<br />
===2.24.07===<br />
A hidden link in the lower center part of the [http://symphonyofnoise.com/nails/yearzero/ Symphony of Noise] webpage revealed and confirmed the album art for Year Zero. It is essentially the same image that was previously released, however it contains "Nine Inch Nails: Year Zero" in the top left hand corner. <i>NOTE: Symphony of Noise is a fan site, so the different cover version is most likely fan art.</i><br />
<br />
===2.22.07===<br />
New leads are coming in fast and heavy now.<br />
# First, after the show in Paris, France, a new site was discovered thanks to a "red flyer" that was distributed. The site is [[Art Is Resistance]] or http://artisresistance.com.<br />
# Then, on the AIR site, there are many links, pages and even some downloads like avatars. All incorporate the [[Resistance Logo]], which can also be seen on Trent's latest concert jacket.<br />
# A video is posted on http://yearzero.nin.com, showing among other little hidden bits, a video of [[The Presence]].<br />
# Finally, the newest news: http://yearzero.nin.com/0024 reveals the album cover for Year Zero.<br />
<br />
Currently, there are a few new leads and songs!<br />
# [[U.S. Wiretap]], a brand new website that was found as a result of typing in the government agency refered to on:<br />
# [[12163331810]], a new phone number that was found through a spectrograph of file:<br />
# [[2432.mp3]], a file that was included in an USB flash drive that also contained:<br />
# [[Me, I'm Not]], the latest leaked song by Trent and co.<br />
# [[In This Twilight]], hot off the USB from the Manchester show.</div>Mfaithhttps://www.nin.wiki/index.php?title=Art_Is_Resistance&diff=6014Art Is Resistance2007-03-01T23:49:59Z<p>Mfaith: </p>

<hr />
<div>This is a phone number extrapolated from another tour shirt that has numbers differently colored and slightly raised (compared to the rest of the text). Upon calling the number, a recording is played that is of a newsreader, a man making comments on the events explained by the newsreader, and a clip of [[Survivalism (song)|Survivalism]].<br />
<br />
==Transcription==<br />
Newsreader type: There you have it, the latest presidential address. America is Born Again. In this report A values-based vision of the future.<br />
<br />
Angry man: Honest to god, once they banned free elections I figured at least we wouldn't have to hear this self righteous motherfucker giving more speeches, he must just like doing it. "America is born again", maybe that was a values-based vision of the future, maybe it was the same old manifest destiny bullshit. Or, another way to put it by an old friend<br />
*song interrupts<br />
Angry man: Still no formal charges. Listen people, I know you're out there and you're angry but you're scared of going to jail. Here's the bad news; the prison came to you my friend. The bars are all around you, you're already a criminal, fucking act like it.<br />
<br />
The end of the recording has another Morse Code message. <br> <br />
[[Image:13102951040_morse.jpg]]<br> <br />
It has been decoded to be: <br> <br />
[[24.15.2]] <br><br />
Corresponding Bible Verse (NIV Translation): <br><br />
Jeremiah 15:2, <br><br />
And if they ask you, 'Where shall we go?' tell them, 'This is what the Lord says: <br><br />
" 'Those destined for death, to death; <br><br />
those for the sword, to the sword; <br><br />
those for starvation, to starvation; <br><br />
those for captivity, to captivity."' <br><br />
<br />
Alternate interpretations of the number code suggest that [[24.15.2]] corresponds to the letter 'n', which is the second letter in the 15th track of halo 24 (''in this twilight'').<br />
