Hmm, I get the feeling that the logo that we see in Vivarium and in this video might be for the Omicron company that these guys work for.

Maybe its set in space?
RE: SOMA Discussion Thread - Draug - 10-07-2013
So there is probably something hidden in the source code?
One guy from twitter:
"note: phrase, lowercase" hint in @frictionalgames http://somasystems.org page GPG encrypted document. AES256, help find the password.
RE: SOMA Discussion Thread - Chrysler - 10-07-2013
Most likely the passphrase consists of the last words of the guy's father. Tried "hang on to your wife" but no success so far. Not sure what "code: b:0x40" means.. 0x40 is 64 hexadecimal..

code b:0x40 ist just saying that the text is encoded in Base64.
And the phrase could be anything. Maybe something from previous page versions or something we didnt find yet. ^^

This. The messages in the page source code are in base 64. When decoded it gives us the messages Chrysler posted earlier.
Suggestions for password:

RE: SOMA Discussion Thread - Alardem - 10-07-2013
This Reed woman's been in both videos we've seen so far. Wonder if that means she'll be a character in the game - maybe the protagonist's contact?
