Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to be contained in a standard 5 meter by 5 meter by 3 meter cell. Additionally SCP-XXXX is to be adorned by a blackout curtain and curtain rod on its front side which shall remained in a closed position whenever testing or viewing is not in progress. Personnel are permitted to view SCP-XXXX with permission from assigned researchers but not for longer than 5 minutes at a time and no more than twice per week.
Description: SCP-XXXX is a 1.5*1*0.3 meter section of an otherwise non-anomalous brick wall which produces an optical anomaly on its front side. The photonic anomaly, henceforth SCP-XXXX-1, appears as a crack moving vertically down the wall with smaller fissures protruding from the main fissure. SCP-XXXX-1 currently measures 1 meter in length with a maximum breadth of 7.5 centimeters and a minimum breadth of 2 centimeters. SCP-XXXX-1 emits a light wavelength on the visual spectrum but with no correlated color to its wavelength which varies between 450 and 650 nano-meters. Instead, SCP-XXXX-1 emits a color that subjects describe as "totally new" and unlike any other color on the visual light spectrum. Extended exposure to SCP-XXXX-1 causes minor headaches and discomfort with repeated viewings in a short period of time increasing the likelihood and intensity of these effects.
Addendum-XXXX-1 SCP-XXX was originally recovered from the side of a family restaurant, ███████, in Chicago, Illinois. Foundation personnel arrived 3 hours after initial reports of the anomaly to administer class-a amnestics to witnesses and relocate the anomalous portion of the wall SCP-XXXX was originally conjoined with before it was placed in a standard cell in foundation site 13.
Test Log A - ██/13/███
Subject: One D class personnel
Procedure: D-1729 is seated in front of SCP-XXXX and is made to view the anomaly for as long as possible or until researcher █████ halts testing.
Results: After viewing for 5 minutes, D-1729 reports minor headaches. Testing continues with minimal changes until 10 minutes where D-1729 asks if she can stop yet. █████ halts the test.
Analysis: D-1729 appears fully lucid throughout the entire test and even grows bored after a while.1 It is unlikely SCP-XXXX-1 has any memetic effects.
Test Log A Audio
D-1729: So what do I need to do again?
Researcher █████: In a few moments I will remotely draw back the curtain in front of you. Just stare at whats behind it for as long as you can and let me know what you see… Also try to refrain from blinking as much as possible.
D-1729: Wait this thing isn't gonna, ya-know…
D-1729 makes a snapping noise and hand gesture
Researcher █████: No, this isn't 173.
The curtain is draw back
D-1729: What in the…
Researcher █████: Could you try to describe what you're looking at?
D-1729: Uh… sure… It's like dark but really bright at the same time… Like if you stared into the night sky and it was as bright as the sun. But its also constantly changing colors like it won't stay in one place. Its…
Researcher █████: Strange?
D-1729: I was gonna say fucked up but that works too.
5 minutes pass with no changes in D-1729's bio signature
D-1729: Am I done yet? I think this things starting to give me a headache.
Researcher █████: Not yet, I'll have some ibuprofen prepared for you.
D-1729: I think this thing is starting to give me a migraine, can you hurry up and figure out whatever it is you're doing.
Researcher █████: Hmm, yes I think that will be quite enough for today. Thank you for your cooperation.
Test Log B - ██/10/███
Subject: D class personnel, D-1729
Procedure: D-1729 is seated in front of SCP-XXXX and is made to view the anomaly for as long as possible or until researcher █████ halts testing.
Results: Test proceeds as per last time except D-1729 reports headaches at 3 minutes in rather than 5. Test continues for 2 more minutes before D-1729 asks to stop. She is released and granted ibuprofen and water.
Analysis: Test confirms reports that repeated viewings in short periods of time will cause SCP-XXXX's side effects to manifest more quickly
Test C - ██/17/███
Subject: Dr. Morrow
Procedure: Dr. Morrow performs a kit of standard diagnostics and measurements
Results: SCP-XXXX measures slightly larger than recorded when it was first taken into foundation custody. Additionally light spectral analysis shows constantly shifting wavelength but consistent with the visual light spectrum. Hume levels around XXXX are marginally higher than normal.
Analysis: Following detection of above average Hume levels, Dr. Morrow prepares tests with specialized spectral analysis tools to better measure the wavelength emitted by XXXX.
Test D - ██/21/███
Subject: Dr. Morrow
Procedure: Dr. Morrow performs advanced spectral analysis of the anomaly
Results: Light emitted by SCP-XXXX-1 contains two simultaneous wavelength components. One fluctuating in the standard visual spectrum levels between 450 and 650 nano-meters while the other consists of complex numbers.
Analysis: See Dr. Morrow's conjecture below
Dr. Morrow's Conjecture
The light emitted by XXXX is unlike anything yet seen by the known physics. It's still photons, which are strange enough in their own right, but it defies what everything we known about particle physics. The wavelength is a vector! Two-dimensional! Just imagine that for a second, 2D light! I feel there is much we still have to learn from XXXX… But my concern is greater than my intrigue. I first calibrated my tools to detect such anomalous properties after a hunch based on the Hume levels detected during my first round of testing… What casts a two dimensional light? Well a three dimensional object casts a 2 dimensional shadow when struck with one dimensional light. I think you can do the math for the rest… This crack isn't just a glimpse of some amazing phenomena, its a crack in our reality. The Hume levels confirm this. And I double checked my measurements from a week ago… Its a crack that's growing…
