Joy Division Documentary - Ian's Past Regression Therapy

Due to the many problems Ian Curtis had in his life, Bernard Sumner decided to try a technique called past regression therapy. This involves being placed under hypnosis and having someone ask you questions about your life. Ian Curtis's experience of this was recorded onto tape and has now been made available for the first time.

Jesus was reading about law at night when he was 28 after working as a carpenter all day.

That was the first thing that came to mind

Would love to hear the full transcript of this. Guess we never will hear it as it must be hidden away in Barney's personal stash of Joy division material. Any ideas how long it was after this that Ian died? I guess 2 weeks max.

He was Kafka reincarnated :p

@Exar83 where did you hear this

[Kento617]

@fearlesssockpuppet I think that may be the only one. This clip came from the Joy Division Documentary

@Exar83 Funny you should mention that Exar. I've been appointed recently as exclusive Australasian/North American distributor some of Jesus's carpentry works. Perhaps you wish to buy some? They include some beautiful spice racks, a divine Chippendale coffee table and a half human/half divine ergonomic computer desk. Next week I'll be getting in some self-assembled vanity units that Jesus designed to fit in the boot so you can drive them home yourself.

@fearlesssockpuppet :

He couldn't have hypnotized Ian on his deathbed. He hanged himself and was dead long before anyone had found him.

@3LARI You'd be surprised how mental you are, mate.
