The Rapture Archives is aware that at the end of 2020, Adobe Flash will no longer be supported by all major browsers. We are working with a third party to see if we can offer the same Flash experience using third party software. Once Flash is no longer supported we will offer a way to experience SITS without the need to run third party software that is fully compatible with HTML 5 compliance. The original SITS archive will not go anywhere after December 2020; there will be a button to view each days articles/changes either through Flash or HTML 5. According to an old drive manifest there is still data from the SITS archives that has yet to be recovered from an old terminal in storage. We are hopeful that the data remains intact so that guests can finally see what the puzzle boxes looked like animated. The journey to retrieve the old terminal will take place in late October, a message will be posted to notify visitors if the journey was a success.

Today marks the 10 year anniversary of the launch of RaptureArchives.org.

On the 30th of March 2010 the first exhibits of the museum officially opened.

While reports of the situation topside continue to get worse, things here have not been much better. Cathedral Plaza where the Rapture Archives is located has been on lock down and under quarantine for some time. The Council has been in an uproar as authorities try to track down and quarantine everyone that came in contact with patient zero over the last few weeks. While smuggling has resulted in a plethora of items available from topside it has also exposed smugglers to the diseases and their mutations above that doctors here are not familiar with. Scientists from the Health Medical Corp have been analyzing the virus and studying its properties to develop a cure which is already under way, if the reports are to be believed. Scientists on the surface are also making headway so the race for the cure is on.

It is our duty as citizens of this great city to remind each other that we all move the Great Chain, and the Great Chain moves us all. While the cornerstone of Rapture's economic principles still stands we have to remember that we have an obligation to protect the welfare and safety of our great city, we are a family and family sticks together through thick and thin. The Council has been discussing in great detail what to do to stave off a second bank crash while quelling the concerns of citizens that have lost contact with their loved ones as communication has broken down in some sectors. Jet-Postal has resorted to sending out letter carriers to keep citizens in quarantined areas of the city in communication with others as they repair the Pneumo Tubes in the affected sectors.

All non essential bathysphere travel has been suspended; stay in your homes until further notice and do not engage in fights with the authorities as we deal with this crisis. If you or anyone else in your residence is not feeling well over multiple days; contact Rapture Emergency Services, they will determine if medical staff needs to enter the premises to remove and treat infected citizens. If provisions in your residence are running low please contact RES as well and they will connect you with a staff member that can arrange for emergency rations to be sent to your location.

Anniversary celebrations have been put on hold, but Rapture Radio has stated they will continue to broadcast during the crisis. The decision has been approved by the Council and Sonorous Inc.

Remember; bathysphere travel is for essential personnel only, citizens found attempting to travel without authorization may face fines or be relocated to Apollo Square; stay on the level and out of trouble.

Please pardon our dust

Update: Rapture Radio has been restored thank you for waiting while we negotiated a new contract. It's important to us that we offer a quality radio service all while keeping costs down as much as possible. Finding the proper balance is important and takes time, we appreciate your patience and feedback while our service was offline.

Rapture Radio will be offline until October 1st. The system that maintained the radio service is no longer available and an alternative will need to be arranged. The system has been backed up and will be restored. Additional information will be posted to address the concerns of citizens. We regret any inconvenience and appreciate your patience, thank you.

Good Day, Rapture.

February marks the turning point for the Rapture Archives. Archivists Sven and Grisha are moving on and leaving the team. They were supposed to leave earlier, but postponed their departure to help tidy up a few things. I wish them continued success in all their future endeavors. This means I am now alone, stuck in Hephaestus, and yet there is no 'I' in team... well that's showbiz. What does this mean exactly? all questions, comments, and hate mail will now be solely forwarded to me. =)

As Sander Cohen would say, the show must go on! and indeed it will. The radio DJ and I are the new team, even though he is a man of very few words. We will continue with our regularly scheduled programming, resuming with the February 9th, five year anniversary broadcast, it's guaranteed to end with a bang. The broadcast starts at 0:00 EST on Monday, February 9th and will end promptly at 0:00 EST Tuesday, February 10th. This will allow listeners from all over Rapture to tune in when its convenient for them. When the broadcast is over, Rapture Radio will start broadcasting dozens of new tracks and re-enable tracks that were discarded by the DJ for being unpopular. All tracks now have another chance of staying on the air. Many of the new tracks were recommended by listeners like you, thank you citizens.

-Tapper

16-01-2015

Greetings, citizens.

It has been almost 5 years since the masquerade ball broadcast was on the air on February 9th 2010. Ever since we brought Rapture Radio back, citizens have continued to tune in and listen from all over the city. Over 130 different sectors of the city have tuned in to listen to Rapture Radio, which surprised us.

Our radio audience has been consistent ever since we first went on the air and continues to grow. Our radio announcer with help from the Thinker keeps track of what songs are popular to our listeners. Tracks that fall below the threshold we set, are removed. Tracks that are removed are kept in a seperate list and reported to us.

We noticed, as radio traffic increased, less songs were being reported as falling below the threshold. On February 9th we will air all original tracks that played on Rapture Radio, February 9th 2010, including the masquerade ball broadcast. Once the broadcast is over with, all tracks that were removed up until now will be restored, this will give tracks another chance of staying on the air. Additional tracks will also be added. More information will be posted when it becomes available.

Archive Construction Progress Update:

Rapture Radio functionality has been fixed, Sonorous radios will now display proper information.

We are working around the clock to get layout issues resolved. Most landing pages will be fixed today. We have brought back former archivist, Grisha to make the transition smoother. If guests have trouble accessing exhibits in a few days, please notify us immediately. Thank you.

Update: Most landing pages have been repaired now, a common problem we are hearing from guests is problems navigating the SomethingintheSea.com exhibit. Please make sure you view the SitS archive with a browser zoom of 90-100% The SitS exhibit is not optimized for accomodating browsers that zoom/magnify elements on the screen past 100% or normal resolution.

Archive Update:

As we approach May, things will start to kick off once again. The SitS exhibit will be updated, as well as the audio diary section to reflect the changes that have occurred in Rapture over the past year. Expect updates to roll out in mid May.

We're all sorry to hear about the closing of the IG Tabulation Company in Minerva's Den, they brought ground breaking technological advancement to Rapture and the products they created were that of true visonaries. We wish each of them and their families best wishes and hope they find work elsewhere, at Ryan Industries or somewhere else.

Greetings citizens of Rapture.

Rapture Radio has been repaired and all tracks have been restored. During our long hiatus we have received additional data for the missing days of SITS. We will fix those days later in November and the credits section will be populated accordingly. Many exciting things have happened since our hiatus, the archive gained two new staff members during the break, who are historical experts. We are pleased to have them working with us. Areas of the archive will be given a graphical update and new sections will be opening. If guests have any questions or concerns send a message through the Pneumo it will be delivered in a flash!

Update: Audio diary links have been fixed, thank you for bringing this to our attention. Enjoy!

SomethingintheSea archive is now 'Complete'. Yes we thought you'd like the sound of that!

The archive is as complete as we can make it, all the days we have data for has been posted and is now available.

The Archive needs help tracking files down that other citizens might have in auxiliary storage. If you want to help, mail us through the pneumo and we will send you the small list. Thank you.

Citizens, if any errors are found in the SITS exhibit please contact us an indicate which day(s) or what error you are experiencing. Polishing the exhibit is the next step in the preservation schedule.

We are aware, puzzle boxes are broken or not functioning, we are working to display them in a separate section of the SITS exhibit.

I apologize for all the delays that occurred, it was my fault and not the rest of the archive team, who have been working long hours across multiple time zones to quickly push this out the door once the storage drives were recovered. Thank you to everyone who offered support and feedback during this year long journey. I hope this archive brings Bioshock fans closer together and resparks the fun and excitement many of us experienced when we peeked into Mark Meltzer's office all those years ago. Enjoy!

Attention: SITS Archive Updated

During our recovery process we thought all days had been preserved, it seems we celebrated to soon. The data we thought had been recovered turned out to be garbage files with only header information intact.

Data on my end is not recoverable, perhaps one of our other archivists who lives in another part of Rapture can help. We apologize for the inconvenience.

-Sven

24-04-2013

Greetings Citizens

Great news! our staff have resolved the technical issues with all remaining days left of SitS. Puzzles have not been recovered unfortunately.

Happy New Year Rapture!

It has been a year of struggles and great divide throughout the city, the balance of power has shifted, as alliances crumble and new factions are born. Cathedral still stands but other locations are not so lucky, which gives us all the more reason to be thankful this New Year's day. This was the first year a party was open to the public and we had quite a turn out. We hope to see a larger turn out next year. The time has come to get back to business and repair areas in the museum, while adding more days to the SitS exhibit. We will continue to add days little by little each day until day 179 is reached. More details will be released later, along with a photo of the aftermath at the New Year's party here in Cathedral.

-Tapper

Season's Greetings, citizens of Rapture!

It's that time of year again, the staff will be returning to continue work on the archives. We apologize for not keeping you informed over the last 6 months, a system has been created to better inform visitors on our progress. Jet Postal has been busy delivering all the pneumograms you have been sending us, almost on a daily basis.

Many guests were concerned if the SITS archive was going to be completed, this is our top priority. Over the next few days, the staff will have a meeting and decide who finishes what. We can confirm the gift shop will open in the middle of January, once the archiving of SITS is complete. The marquee will change once we are in full swing, stay tuned.

Greetings, citizens of Rapture.

The Somethinginthesea exhibit has been opened to visitors, the archive will expand in the coming weeks as we resolve issues and do our best to make the experience as true to the original as possible. The materials presented in this exhibit have been in our vault for a long time and the small group of archivists here at RA have become attached to this collection of data. It brings us great joy to offer our visitors a chance to look inside the looking glass and experience what it was like to view sits a few years ago.

Rapture radio will go off air, next week. The station will return, once we are done relocating the system. The station will be implemented differently as well. All Sonorous radios will still work, there is no need to discard them.

The bulletin board will keep all visitors up to date in real time, showing specifically what is being worked on, Stay tuned.

-Tapper

10-06-2012

Dear citizens of Rapture!

We made a promise long ago. We said if Somethinginthesea.com was taken down, we would release the complete archive we have, of SITS, that is in our vault collecting dust. We were told last week that SITS will not be returning and it has permanently been taken down.

Starting June 15, we will release all of Phase 1 and half of Phase 2, don't worry though citizen the rest of Phase 2 and all of Phase 3 will be released a couple weeks later.

Yes, we thought you'd like the sound of that!

Other projects have been put on hold, we feel this is our main priority, we regret any inconvenience

Happy New Year!

Celebration continues here in Cathedral well into the early morning. The biggest event all year round has brought people from all the remaining protected areas together. The buildings are all a glow and people are singing and dancing, while the band plays in the center of the plaza.

In the past year Rapture has suffered immensely with great loss, but you would never know from all the cheerful faces seen here tonight. If your watching the party from home, don't wait any longer and come on down and join the fun, after all it only comes once a year!

The festivities will last well into February so if you can't make it tonight or tomorrow don't worry citizen, the plaza will remain a glow. Information regarding the archives will be posted when the celebration calms.

18-02-2011

Music has always been an important part of our lives here in Rapture, and helps to prevent certain rainy day blues.

All the music we broadcast here, came directly from vinyl records donated to us. Our music catalog spans up to 1959, shortly before the council banned new music from being purchased. There is one record that was donated which has puzzled our staff, and at one time the scientists down in Central Computing. It was brought here from the wreckage of DF-0301, the sleeve did not survive but the record has the word 'Stereophonic' etched on it.

The boys at Central Computing have modified a analog player and the stylus to properly play the LP. The audio does not playback properly on our loudspeakers, however a solution has been implemented, with the help from audio engineers and blueprints for 'Spatial Ambience' that belonged to Carlson Fiddle. When visitors enter the the museum lobby, if they stand directly under one of the loudspeakers, they will hear the music as if it's coming from multiple directions compared to the standard monophonic audio we have listened to all these years. The world topside sure is clever.

In other news, portraits in the advertising gallery have been restored.

-Tapper

17-02-2011

Portraits in the advertising gallery will be returned shortly, our partner archive is relocating.

Some of you may have noticed the archive staff going to and from the basement with boxes and monitors.

We approve of this practice providing citizens give credit back to RaptureArchives.org. The archivists and researchers here volunteer their time, so please respect them and credit them for their hard work. Some are very concerned about what is happening around here and are suggesting that the archives lock down their resources.

The 'SomethingintheSea' exhibit is almost complete. Our archive team has been working around the clock making sure the materials we display in the exhibit are historically accurate and are the highest quality that we can offer.
