If you have just stumbled upon this site and are wondering what is going on, then you've come to the right place! To be honest, I wish I had more answers myself but I suppose that is just the nature of mysteries. Here's how it began:

Early in July of 2006, my website began to exhibit strange behavior - dropping offline for days at a time and pointing towards a countdown. When the countdown reached zero, the Oculus appeared - a floating sphere covered in unknown symbols. You can easily get to it by clicking the Visit the Oculus button on my right or by clicking this image:

There's a small yellow hologram sphere orbiting the larger sphere which you can interact with by moving it with your mouse and clicking on it's blue-glowing symbols - the larger sphere opens and you find a puzzle inside. It's bizarre - these puzzles unlock a sequence that rushes through clouds with images all around. So far there is only speculating around what these images could mean, you can read about it in the Message Board area of my site.

That's why I'm gathering a team of investigators to take a look at any future changes. I have come to realize that this is no accident, and I could use your help. If you register on the site with your email, I will notify you when major events take place. You also gain access to the discussions on this site - we're working together to find the truth about this, so everything we have learned so far is being collected there.

Here's a list of the places we've discovered (so far!)

	www.oculareffect.com - this site, where the investigation takes place and I occasionally sound off with my latest theory. Register here and you won't miss the action.
	00112358.net - the Oculus. No evidence yet about its origin or purpose.
	faitharella.com - The tattoo prodigy from Seattle working with Miss Vix. So far no contact has been made but we're all focused on finding her!
	bethlehemconservatory.org - A private school for children with 'special qualities' in Bethlehem, CT lists Faith Arella on its list of alumni. How odd.
	vixtattoos.com - Miss Vix's Tattoo Parlor. For some reason the Oculus dumped us at this Seattle tattoo site. Miss Vix doesn't mention anything about the Oculus but she does link to the Bethlehem Conservatory, a school seen in the cloudy visions.
	clarenceparkbandb.com - A quiet B&B in Adelaide until the 'Miracle Mile' made them famous. People ride the local bus for hours hoping for a miracle.
	goodermanmonroe.com - We have next to no information on this law firm from Seattle. Someone delivered a check to Faith and the name has been reappearing ever since.
