Original soundtrack
As an exception to the previous paragraph, the original soundtrack available in the Laboratory (seventeen MP3 reels) is offered free of charge: listening and downloading are permitted for strictly personal, private use only. Any other use is prohibited without prior written permission — including redistributing or re-sharing the files (even free of charge), uploading them to streaming or sharing platforms, synchronising them with other content, any commercial use, and any use for training artificial-intelligence systems. The compositions were generated by artificial intelligence, then selected, produced and edited by Stéphane Benedetti under the pseudonym “Sub Cut”. The recordings are protected by the phonogram producer's related rights (Article L213-1 of the French Intellectual Property Code) — ℗ 2026 Sub Cut / Stéphane Benedetti. The files are provided “as is”, without warranty of any kind.
Dead drop
The Laboratory's dead drop lets you leave a free, single-read message. Encryption happens entirely in the sender's browser: neither this site nor the vault can read the content, and the unlock code never travels with the message. Encrypted messages are kept by the Missive service of Keystone OS (same publisher as this site) on Cloudflare Workers infrastructure, for at most seventy-two hours; reading, three wrong codes or the deadline destroy them permanently, with no possible recovery. Depositing constitutes a commitment to lawful use: transmitting unlawful content is prohibited, and technical caps (size, number of deposits) prevent abuse. Service provided “as is”, without warranty.
