From what I understand they use filters on photoshop to see it. I think there is a easier way to do this. I don't think Bungie would expect everybody to have photoshop.

They don't expect everyone to have photoshop.. but they know that quite a few people would. ARGs tend to require large groups of people and typically within that large group, different people have different skillsets and interests. So the solutions always require those with special skillsets because otherwise the puzzles would be too simple.

But in all seriousness... In order to see the numbers we Fourier transform the left image for each five minute node interval using either a photoshop plug-in or an image processor that can perform FFTs (Fast Fourier Transform), we then stack those images using the corresponding right image as a mask in order to get the final output. This latest image had the numbers stored across the RGB channels, whereas previously we were either using just the green (luma) channel or converting the image to black and white. Hopefully that helps...

Thanks for the explanation.
