EASTER Special | A Study in Steganography
Combine all the clips together to get a secret message. This message gives you a url for a secret video. For example, if the message were dQw4w9WgXcQ (it isn't by the way) then the secret video would be at • Rick Astley - Never Gonna Give You Up (Off...
Some hints if you want them
Clip 1: Telegraph
Clip 2: Map octothorp to alphabet
Clip 3: If you can't see it, try using a different sense.
Clip 4: Hex is short for hexadecimal which means base 16.
Clip 5: Convert binary to ASCII (maybe this is more of a giveaway a hint)
Clip 6: The solution is "elementary", at least if you stayed awake in Chemistry class.
Clip 7: Phone a friend.
Clip 8: 8 bits
Clip 9: Base 10 is decimal, and base 16 starts adding letters to represent numbers. You could try an even bigger base that is common in computer science. If you're really stuck check the description to this video (or read the comments for spoilers): • My TALLEST DOMINO TOWERS | 16 Inches to 16...
Clip 10: There's a way to map pairs of colours to numbers, useful for telecommunications wires. There are only 25 colours in the scheme, but fortunately the message does not contain a "z".
Clip 11: I've already used this method of encoding twice. I wasn't as creative at encodings when I started out hiding messages in my videos. Fun fact, I hid a message in my first domino video!
Meta Puzzle Hint: Assume all secret messages start with a capital letter. Only use the first letter of the message. Convert it to ASCII. If you still don't know what to do, this website will be helpful: https://xor.pw/#
