  • what a fucking dutch.

  • @edeldoe I'm not Dutch!

  • @IanCrossland What???

  • The Human Equation is a brilliant album, I rest my case...:P

  • You really look like a friend of mine...

  • with all his beauty

    hair, eyes, lips, hands, shining skin..

  • I do NOT want whatever he's smokin'...

  • If you maintain a calm, meditative state you can feel it. But, I figured after long enough without these constant actions and reactions leading to any ONE point, instead they must all be factors that subtract and add together to equal the present conscious experience of each individual. I don't know if that's where you were heading, but let me know what you think sometime man. Peace.

  • Hey dude, fuck all of these comments about your drug usage. I know what you're talking about. I can only guess exactly where you were going to end because it was cut short, but this video was synchronistic with many realizations I've had recently. In attempting to live mindfully in every moment, I have begun to observe to what extent everyone's thoughts and emotions bounce off of one another. To be continued...

  • Yeah. Formal thought disorder. But I believe it is caused by the psychedelics he has apparently been taking, which he needs to cease taking, permenantly. I would recommend some sort of counseling as well, I think that homosexual experience has disrupted his sense of self quite substantially.

  • Folks, Google "Flight of Ideas," then re-watch this video.

    These videos are not his Prophecies nor his Art as Ian claims. They merely document the symptoms of his mental illness.

  • good argument, but , this guy isn't 1. continuous as described, (he has to be talking all the time, it's a video by himself, people do them everyday) 2. He gets excited and ideas flow through this man when he talks about something, and he FEELS that whoever he's speaking with should think about some things. did he get all the way through college with a mental illness like that?

  • i agree with you man, i just watched a few of his vids and he seems harmless enough but seriously needs to go see a doctor coz he's fucked up....mate not being funny get help!!!!!

  • lol ur so off ur face

  • you scare me

  • Then don't watch it?

    Ian is great. :)

  • Wow i love the way you think it is almost as if you are on xtc..maybe lsd? with the way you think i think maybe you have done one of those... i have done both and my train of thought is just like u i can hear trough the music to...crazy shit i know what u mean...you are very attractive by the way...

  • Have you ever thought of painting instead of thinking like a maniac?

  • To a large extent, I think you are working with placement of attention. The way beings and things accelerate and slowdown together. OBSERVE WITHOUT JUDGMENT!!! KEEP ON READING THIS DATASTREAM -- THIS IS AN AWESOME TECHNOREVELATION INTUITION. The challenge is to become, for a moment, the camera and not the actor. I find this energy most enjoyable.

  • dude, you're going to drive yourself crazy with this collective consciousness bs! you're probably crazy already... i don't know... i wish you luck man

  • Yo Ian. Try this one. Instead of listening to those things, try listening to the blanks between them. Just try it, you'll see.

  • wow your mental

  • U like men. Bounce! I will eat Your collective Thoughts AND DESTROY THE WORLD WITH ZORK AND PALS! MWHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHHA­HA! PURE EVIL!!!

  • my god man... put on a shirt and stop being retarded

  • are u crazy u know like nuts

    anyways this vid was cool

  • hahaha ur awesome

    crazy awesome

  • ian, what spiritual self help books have you read?

  • Why is this guy always naked?>?

  • ian is a pioneer for the evolution of mind

  • You're very self-absorbed, especially for someone your age.

    But don't get me wrong, your use of big words, weird hair, and blank stares with long pauses really do make your look much more intelligent!

    So keep it up, and at least the idiots who believe everything happens for a reason will keep on watching...

  • Ya know Ian, you might not ever read this but...

    You seem to have a pretty good understanding of things philosophical, but your videos would be a lot more credible and interesting if you didn't play yourself off to be a major genius. Your views are interesting and I watch them with an open mind, but the more I watch your videos the more I realize you're just a big, big phony. Anyone can have knowledge of certain things but knowledge and intelligence are two completely different ball games.

  • Drugs...

  • ah ha ha ha.

    that siren bit was funny.

  • OMG, sweety, how cute...how can you waste time like this? Jesus, what a waiste of a human being!

  • I So I found you by pure mishap, glad I did I've enjoyed hearing you rant and rave. Your body language says a lot about who you are. I do agree with a lot of what you say, I'm not going to pretend I'm the sharpest tool in the barn or the brightest part of the flame but I do have to say I seriously enjoy watching someone who knows who they are truly regardless of outside views or should I say "blindness". Short story love your videos.

  • Seriously? If there is someone completely lost in who/she is, it's Ian. Common.

  • Ian forgets to add : You must consume copious amounts of LSD. The big word Ian is :Lysergic acid diethylamide (if you learn how to say that word you might be able to post a video portraying a chemist)

    Perma-trip Perma-trip Perma-trip

  • "Collective unconscous"? What rubbish.

  • hahaha, agree:)

  • Ian did you go to burning man?

  • I've been told that if you talk to youself, that's not crazy. Everyone does it.

    But once you start responding to yourself, than you are crazy.

    Ian crazy?

  • Contrived.

  • did you do acid or exctacy?

  • Just because you can't hear what he's saying...doesn't mean he's not saying anything. If a tree falls in the forest...

  • schizophrenia is a term used to explain a behavior we are watching before us. Only in America, can a person with a mental condition get all this attention. What are you saying Ian, are you ahead of your time? Are we morons to watch you, or do you have some sort of appeal that creates a mesmerizing attention upon you. You can start a colt, that is scary.....

  • its not schizophrenia, although someone that isnt able to get to that level of self awareness, might see it that way.

  • I didnt say it was schizophrenia, his behavior is coined as that term. I don't believe in labels, I however do see a behavior that is different from the norm. I am not one to judge if it is wrong or right. I myself understand where he is coming from and find him fascinating, cause I speak the same language. I was born in the wrong body, and my brain was bathed with dual hormones, making me transsexual. So my level of awareness is up there.

  • Ian, so when you start to hear the things in your head(murder your family),then you visualize it(murder your family), are you going to actually DO it?!?! YOU ARE LOSING YOUR MIND!!!

  • possibly, The sirens you hear are the Funny-Farm wagons coming to get you.......

  • this all started when you started talking to the einstein poster. next you'll be talking to your video camera and hearing it respond.

  • "my collective unconcious"?

  • one day your brain will just fucking explode!!!

  • You have got to be fuckin kidding me with this.

  • We used to get CD's in the back of our Aberrant Psych textbooks with examples of different disorders. Now they just link to YouTube vids like this one.

  • 4 diagonal lines? like an X

  • Ian if you are a fish, you are a mullet

  • nice hair.

  • IanCrossland: i understand you're trying to evolve your thoughts and yourself, and i applause you for that, But you are not deep, You offer no insight, just ramblings, If you really want to get to the next Level, shut your cam and reflect, cause right now, your just another face on here with all of nothing to say

  • Man you are losing it, PEOPLE DON'T LISTEN TO THIS!!! If you are stupid enough to do what he says you will open your self up to demons and then we will have a whole bunch of zombies running around! LOL :0)

  • Careful, he might use "the beam of truth" upon you...

  • Ian you have demons... and I'm starting to believe you are obessive compulsive..

  • from 5.50 onwards you can see exactly how he looked during his gay 'rape'.

  • Theatre of the Mind using induction techniques assisted by mind altering substances. This is headed somewhere and The Well it springs from has sheep pills in it...

  • ian. dude. you are still not listening to the demon.

    he was complaining that you didn't bring the bread to the table. now put your god damn shirt on and get to work and bring the bread to the table.

    now, boy. now.

  • "i had another thought of the way I look in the video" You see what I am saying about ego. You're really knocking at the right door now. Keep going. The ego aspect of Youtube is going to be something you will have to contend with at some point. The ego in the present and the need for public scrutiny that fuels it despite the good intentions. Ian, your a good guy, now read read read read more. Youre making too much of your conclusions up. Arrive at them instead after work.

  • Someone has to know a psychotherapist. can you direct them to ian's videos. I would like to get a diagnosis for ian so he can get some help.... no joke

  • Narcissistic Personality Disorder with Manic Features

    Google it or look it up under DSMIV (DSM 4).

    Most average people don't get therapy until they hit rock bottom. The thing with Narcissistic Personality is that those who have it actually believe that they are NOT vulnerable, NOT falable NOT in need of help (the superiority becomes self limiting).

  • Narcissists will strain every muscle to meet their own "flawless" image, and demean or detroy anyone or anything who casts any doubt on this image.

    Peace

  • They're more likely to IGNORE...demeaning and destroying would give credibility to a thought that by a narcissis is considered to be completely ludicrous. If you were to tell me the sky is purple I'd laugh at you, I don't get mad an prove you wrong right? That'd show insercurity in my own belief that it is blue.

  • I like your thought on this. I had just copied this statement from a web site on narcissism and liked it. It sort of fit the way Ian reacts to lots that is said to him in the comment section.

    I like your further expantion of this which also fits quite well with all this and his lack of concern for the valuable information put forth here.

    Peace

    Peace

  • "acid is a self limiting drug"

  • Don't get me wrong, I adore you. But I think I just saw your 'O' face. It was hot.

  • Maybe not so hot when you think that's how he looked when he was getting drunkenly sucked off last week...

  • I see you learned a new term--"collective unconscious"

    Learn to use it correctly. Google "Carl Jung" and "collective unconscious"

    You're stupid.

  • I am viewer 454 and commenter #95.

    Did you eat anything there?

    What did you receive in the Black Rock City gift economy?

    What did you give?

    Were you a performer?

    What camp were you part of?

    What route did you take to get there?

    Did you bathe in the water trucks?

    Dude, who wants 75 cents?

    What does he need the 75 for? The bus? The subway?

  • Looks like Ians going for the Einstein new wave look,and is that a book in the background be still my heart

  • "Purple haze all in my brain

    Lately things don't seem the same

    Actin' funny, but I don't know why

    scuse me while I kiss the sky"  Jimi Hendrix

  • (whew)

    I love you, but when I want to explain to my kids why drugs are bad, I'll just play your last couple videos.

  • hes so high

  • Ian, you are talking to demons...don't complain if something bad happens to you...

  • you're a demon

  • Okay. That's it. Ian. You are doing irreparable harm to yourself. Do you even listen to yourself anymore? This is no longer a brave attempt at honesty. This is becoming pathetic on your part. You must know this. You will end up in the mental health care circus that exists in the states. You will PERMANENTLY damage your brain if you continue to do drugs. Take a minute and breathe, Ian. PLEASE.

  • And I'm not trying to rain on your parade. You want the experience; I can understand that. But life can be exquisite without destroying yourself from the inside out. You need to be able to access your brain's higher functions in order to fully appreciate these things. EVERY TIME you do drugs, you are taking an ax to that very thing. Stop it. Where is his family?? Where are his friends??

  • You really can't do much damage at this point, your predictions are greatly exaggerated like a paranoid PSA. In my pharmacology class we learned about how halucinogenics WILL eventually filter out of the body's cells. Acid is quite different than mushrooms too.

  • RIGHT. Tell that to the drug addicts currently residing in Bellevue. You've got to be kidding me. A little life experience goes a long way. Pharmacology class will only teach you so much. Go speak to some drug addicts. Or, better yet, trying talking with a social worker and see what they think about halucinogenics and mental health.

  • Drug addicts on crack and speed and god knows what else? yeah thats irreversible. You can't put all drugs in the same category and say "you'll never recover from this" it's case-by-case. And I am speaking from experience.

  • Alright. But in THIS CASE, Ian's case, can't you see the damage he's doing. It's pretty obvious that nothing good will come from the continued use of drugs here. This is no vision quest...

  • How can you come home from like 4 days in the desert and still be that white?

  • What I find more amazing than that is, he spent 4-5 days without taking a shower and apparently, made his Demon and Light video before bathing when he returned home. Um, eeew. Sorry, but that many days without a shower, the video making can wait.

  • dude were do you get your dugs???? LOL :-)

  • K...you don't need to know...lol dugs? I'd say you have a good buzz on right now. Enjoy

  • Make the cult man

  • "Suddenly my gnosis is aligned..."

  • Comment removed

  • LOL at "not as accurate as what actually happened." Ian has fucking lost it, man.

  • LOL at "my collective unconscious."

  • WHAT THE HELL? WHY CAN'T i SAY ANYTHING BUT MERP MERP MERP?

  • Because you're a demon?

  • Because you are thinking PERM backwards.

  • MERP MERP MERP MERP

  • I am almost certain Ian is taking the piss in this video. :-P

  • MERP MERP MERP MERP

  • lol

  • It was a long sleeve "ROBE" that he wore with a really wide brim hat.

    Peace

  • CaptainWhatever4 aka Emily Litella, he said ROPE, not Robe.

    His flashlight was tied to his ROPE. ;-{)

  • my bad :o) Dang keyboard

  • PS

    Gilda Radner ROCKED. She was the best of the best on SNL.

  • I wore a brown robe for a few nights

  • Bathrobe or more like a Monk's robe? Did you also where a hat?

    Please, tell us about the "Human Equation," the people.

    Help us relate.

  • Thank you Ian for clearing that up. I sent you my newest video. Thought you would like the music. Its great for meditation. If you like it I can send you the name of the series of CD's. Its andharva-Ved music.

    Peace

  • Gandharva-Ved music :o)

  • Are you a jedi?

  • Was that because it's easier to get undone than trousers when you're drunk?

  • But you've got to admit , a robe would be cool. That's next.

  • That was no flash light...it was 'a beam of truth'

    and just for the record...go back and listen, at 6:38 I swear he says 'and I wore a robe??? (its a hard call) I think I just like the visual of Ian walking around in a robe like some messiah...

    If not, then not only are my eyes going bad but so are the ears....dang age'n. :o)

    Peace and thumbs up ;o)

  • I'm not so sure an explanation will follow. He can't have slept all day. Will sunblock prevent all tanning? If he's in a tv series, does he have to make sure he doesn't get sunburn?

  • thecomm, what is it with you being so convinced he's in a TV series? He's not listed in the cast for that show; he's credited with "High School Boy #1." All that means is he had a speaking role in at least one episode, so insignificant the character doesn't even have a name. My dog could fart in a commercial and get a credit on IMDB for it.

  • He must be avery special dog.

  • thecomm, I'm guessing you don't understand how credits work. Anyone who has a speaking part, even if it's just one word, gets a credit. Having a credit for a role doesn't mean the person played a large or recurring part. SAG union rules require an actor to receive a credit, even if just for the sake of their resume, when they speak in a show.

  • You're putting WAY too much importance on Ian's "High School Boy #1" credit on IMDB for this new series. If it were that big a deal, he'd be listed in the cast (which he is not) and his character would have a name. Simmer down lol.

  • You were lying about your dog, weren't you?

  • lol you goofball. I never said my dog got a credit, but if a dog has a part in a show, it gets an official credit.

  • I think you are underestimating the importance of Ian's part. This isn't just any old high school boy; it's High School Boy <b>#1</b>!

  • OK, you win - you have me busting up laughing here. What was I thinking? You're right! It's not just any old high school boy. In fact, it's not even just High School Boy #2, it's BETTER!

  • I love you Comm. ..you are so loyal. (that is until scrubs are involved) :)

  • You just had to ruin it, didn't you.

  • I'm sorry :( ...(off I go into the corner to fold my husbands srubs.) I'll sob quietly.

  • Your husband wears SCRUBS? I can't take much more of this.

  • It's his job..I swear, it's not a fashion statement. Forgive me?

  • maybe they need to believe this in an exercise in one of their classes *bewilderment101* mancrushes only go so far... Excellent ending comment...

  • Yeah, the trance music that they bombard you with 24/7 is part of thier brainwashing technique for thier cult. It looks like it has obviously worked on you Ian. Also that vision of the 4 diagnal lines going to the center is the way the whole city is set up, kind of like a symbolic portal. Maybe thats how the demons get through. Looks like they burned that into your brain as well. The whole thing looks like some big brainwashing ritual.

  • The whole Burning Man operation, from the research I have done, leads me to believe that it is a money making scam grossing more than 8 million dollars a year off of baffoons like Ian Crossland. Larry Harvey owns your foolish shoul.

  • tvguitars, nonsense. The music deafens the audience and cause immediate hearing problems. The brain begins to hear sounds when the music takes a break. Add drugs into the mix and you have major audio hallucinations.

    If Todd Rundgren was there I highly doubt your assessment of "Demons" and "Brainwashing" has anything to do with what was going on. Todd wouldn't have any part of it. Don't blame the festival, blame drugs and mental illness. The 2 are not a good recipe for staying in reality.

  • tvguitars, have you ever gone to a Todd Rundgren concert or any rock concert for that matter? If you think it is about demons, seek help.

    I have such an urge to say . . . I'll say it.

    Todd is G-d. ;-{)

  • LOL at OneoftheImmortals

  • ian... there are times when i can follow you. that's not to say you have a problem conveying, maybe it's me being unable to understand you. whatever the case, you should read... i recommend anything by alan watts. i'm reading his "the wisdom of insecurity" right now. wondeful book... he doesn't cover topics you do but i believe you'd gain alot of inspiration reading anything of his... peace brother

  • Ian,

    Are these videos for real or are they just a series of audition vehicles for your acting career?

  • i've thought the same thing for quite sometime now... peace man

  • I just get that sometimes you are preaching the answers you find for yourself as the answers for everyone and that my friend is wrong.

    when you convince ppl that their quest in life is just like yours is when you end up as a cult leader

  • micro correction "then you end up as a cult leader"

  • Why not join the Ian Crossland cult? Wouldn't be any worse than the "cult" you are all already in.

  • stop worshiping people. look at yourself. you can figure it out

  • The thing is that Ian is a smalltime neophyte compared to the likes of Larry Harvey who rakes in over 8 million dollars with his Burning Man cult. The festival has been going on for 20 something years; so who knows, maybe in 20 years Ian will be making money off of dipshits with his cult and become the big cheese like Harvey.

  • Wrong hu? For everybody or just for yourself?

  • I like to hear Sirens- It reminds me that we still have a healthy infrastrusture. That wherever someone is, in trouble, they are getting the speedy help they need. People are pulling over and letting the greater need go through. small price to pay for a life saved...

  • i wont even watch this video. ill just repeat what i have said in almost every video you have posted. Get sober and get mental help. the answers arent in drugs and for sure the answers arent in the amount of drugs you take.

  • the answers are in the thoughts themselves

  • In every question there is contained the answer.

  • what does drugs have to do with anything. man i have taken mushrooms in the quest for answers as well. I think when you have come full circle around you will find there are no answers for some questions. these are the questions that have been asked from the beginning of man. If you find a answer that works for you then you have to realize its not the answer for everyone. there is no one way to answer some things. infinite just like the human mind

  • The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind; The answer is blowin' in the wind.

    Ever think the sounds and voice(s) you heard may have been Todd Rundgren's concert? He did perform.

    Does it always have to be about you? (Look who I'm asking.)

    Didn't you "connect" with anyone?

    Why don't you tell us about the people and the performances? Give us something we can relate to. (Sorry for ending the sentence in a preposition.)

  • getting "help" can have a very broad definition to some people.

  • your brain is fucked.

  • Deep experience.

  • Oh man I just had a huge bowel movement! A coiler, layered with nuts.

  • Sound can carry one's mind places that's for sure.

  • That just sounds sooo engaging and soo cool to experience.. thanks for sharing.

  • Part 2 coming up any minute folks, stay tuned. In the meantime here are some messages from our sponsors

  • yeah...he was $4.75 short and needed to check back into reality to get funded for the next segment

  • i hate the sirens to

  • aww, the truth was broken up by a measly 4.75

  • LMAO!

  • yeah...he was $4.75 short and needed to check back into reality to get funded for the next segment

  • How did you manage to stay so white after being in the desert for a week?

  • lol so was he saying that he was having a conversation with the burning man? lol only Ian! stay away from the brown acid at events like that bro.

  • Sounds like a good time!

  • OK...the mushrooms should have worn off by now and you still aren't making any sense.

  • mmmmm....alrighty then.

  • He'll get bored soon. You can tell he is having a laugh coz he doesn't comment

  • why are people watching this, your taking the piss, i know the shit your taking this from and it's not worth the effort

  • Wow what a boring video. I still love your hairy armpits, though.
