Whenever Dev talks about his Infinity-era Christ complex and his subsequent manic-depressive state, I always hear references to "certain information" which presented itself to him, and which he, at the time, had no choice but to relate back to himself. I don't mean to pry into Dev's personal life, but he seems to be strongly hinting at something, and I can't figure out what it is.

On the Physicist CD Rom, he talks about "certain information". On the new SYL website bio, he mentions "certain information". Is anyone else as curious as I am?

Not really, since I haven't heard of it before.

I'm always up for a good mystery! I hadn't heard that wording, specifically, but I'd be interested in hearing more about that time in Dev's life.

The LAST time I acted on a tip-off about "certain information" I ended up in the trunk of a car in Zurich with half a pound of C4 strapped to me...

Sorry Mike, you're on yer own!

ah geez, not again...

if you would have said it was ou i would have gone easy but my question is how did you get out of it ?



ON TOPIC.
i am very curious . but i have no answer lol

Could be part of that whole celebrity spirituality thing.

You know, how all the A list types like sticking things on (and possibly up...) themselves or meditating and stuff. Maybe he had a vision.

Hmm, in fact that's just made me think of Earth Day, cos doesn't he talk about seeing god in that?

Maybe that's a clue. He did seem rather reluctant to talk about that stuff on the CD Rom.

Or maybe I'm making this whole thing up as I go along?!

I mean, what kind of information would it take to start someone on a full-blown Christ complex? I doubt it was a vision he had while meditating, but who knows? Your guess is as good as mine...

what kind of information? well, CERTAIN

"to keep a secret, forget about it"

what exactly is "christ complex" ?

i think it's being obsessed with the idea of god and christ... or maybe it's thinking that you yourself are god...

After Devin flipped out making Infinity, and made multiple stupid personal mistakes based on the information that a ego-centric, manic, childish mind received after doing lots of Acid and stupid chemical drugs at the age of 23. (after being straight edge, no less) Dev thought he was God (the fucking moron), and it took years of work and rectification of personal relationships for Dev to get back to a place where he could recognize that same information as being universal and non-specific.

i guess my second guess was right...

Yes, but he said at least twice before that "certain information" had presented itself to him before the onset of this Christ complex. Yet he makes no allusions as to what the information was. What could make one think that he is God?

Be careful with chemical drugs, and definitely do not do them in excess.

their is a fine line between using and abusing, anc it seems like he was abusing them.

If he was getting so frustrated, why didnt he just take a break? Everything always works and comes together better after a nice break. Like give it a week or two off, or even a month if its that stressfull.

Abusing? I think he took acid once. Not what I'd call abusing.

He didn't manage to do a thing for a year. I think that counts.
