@RMachman Where is your dream spot to film?

Please take 35 seconds to listen to these amazingly clear, conversational, insightful spirit box messages from my paranormal ITC session in Boerne, Texas. “Respect the light!” “It follows me.” “We love it.” For nearly a decade, I have compiled perhaps the largest collection of ITC messages about spiritual light in the world. I am extremely proud of these recordings, as “light work” is my impetus for conducting ITC. This “light” is not new age mumbo jumbo, nor is it tethered to religion. It is a widely documented phenomenon that spans all cultures. Regardless of one’s personal beliefs, “the light” is definitely something that the vast majority of spirits seem to want. As always, I must remind my audience that what they hear in these videos is not audio pareidolia, nor is it trickery. This is 100% real, demonstrable spirit communication captured via my own proprietary ITC app that is guaranteed to never produce a false positive. I conduct the vast majority of my work in San Antonio (home of The Spurs), but I plan to venture into different parts of the country soon.

@RMachman Dude this is sick. I am definitely gonna be buying this one. Also, lol at the zapper.

@RMachman @fullmoonhorror @directorhugov @RealCharlesBand I need to dude.

@Prof_Jreyna @fullmoonhorror @directorhugov @RealCharlesBand You and me both! Have you seen any of Full Moon’s movies? I own most of them in one format or another, including a few on Laserdisc!

I have partnered with @fullmoonhorror to contribute four kick-ass songs to THE GRIM RAPPER! The song playing throughout the trailer is called “The Grim Rapper’s Odyssey.”👇 Thank you, @directorhugov and @RealCharlesBand, for such an awesome opportunity! youtube.com/watch?v=k-Lyiq…

@RMachman @dunforgiven Where did this all go?

@dunforgiven I’m with you! My lunch yesterday from Burnt Bean BBQ Company, the top-rated, Michelin-starred pleasure palace in Seguin, Texas…

If y'all tell me that I'll only get to live up to 70 years old if I regularly eat meat but live up to 90 if I become a vegetarian, I'll gladly die happy at 70 than miserable at 90. I'm not joking.

@RMachman Take as long as you need.

Dear friends, please read! 👇 I’ve decided to take a break from creating and posting content. I’m exhausted. Here’s a few reasons why: In less than a year, I’ve… 1. Released 35 singles, all of which I’ve conceived, written, performed, produced, and mixed single-handedly. 2. Created original artwork to accompany all 35 singles. 3. Released five covers of songs by the likes of The Cure, Marilyn Manson, John Foxx, Yazoo, and Fred Myrow/Malcolm Seagrave. 4. Composed four original tracks for a forthcoming horror movie. 5. Conducted over 75 hours of ITC/paranormal research. 6. Uploaded over seven hours of paranormal evidence, including some of the most compelling visual and audio ever documented in the paranormal field. 7. Written multiple journalistic articles about film, music, food, and spirituality. 8. Written approximately half of a forthcoming book about ITC that I hope to publish eventually. 9. Edited over 500 manuscripts, including master’s theses, doctoral dissertations, and peer-reviewed academic journal articles. If you miss me (yeah???), then please consider checking out the hundreds of paranormal/spirit box videos I’ve posted or any of the songs I’ve released on Bandcamp and YouTube! This is not goodbye! This is merely a much-needed cooldown period before my brain explodes. I’ll still check my notifications and my feed from time to time, so feel free to reach out to me if you’re inclined. See you later!

@RMachman Really bringing out that final destination ptsd in us Ryan.

My new track “Aviophobia” is a frenzied, genre-defying electronic industrial wallop in three parts: 1) “Plane Crash Simulator,” 2) “Sole Survivor Syndrome,” and 3) “Plane Crash Simulator (Redux).” Put on your headphones and play at maximum volume! I have attached a one-minute preview, but please visit the Bandcamp link below for the full six-minute track in high-quality FLAC format!👇 ryanmachman.bandcamp.com/track/aviophob… For this piece, I sampled the roar of multiple airplane engines during a paranormal investigation at Sunset Memorial Park, which is situated near an airport. I sampled many other sounds, too, including a garden hose spray gun, an electric saw, and crumpled aluminum foil. I ported all of these disparate sounds into my DAW and made something musical out of them. Please enjoy! #IndustrialEquipment #MusicVibes #MusicTools

@RMachman I am leaning more towards Jesus in that case.

I made a typo. The last message should read, “Once it’s the Golden Son, you *know* that’s him.”

Fascinating spirit box replies from the beginning of my #ITC session at Comfort Cemetery in Comfort, Texas. #paranormal “Look up.” “Perhaps.” “Once it’s the Golden Son, you that’s Him.” If you’ve followed my ITC journey, then you’ve probably heard many requests for me to “look up” when I stand under trees. I often wonder if spirits are drawn to trees. I’m unsure if “The Golden Son” is a reference to me or to Jesus. Comfort is a very religious small town, so either interpretation would be valid given the context of what I’d just said about helping them attain spiritual light. #SATX #Spiritual_Glimpse #spirittracks

@RMachman Nicely put together man.

Please take a few minutes to watch this amazing footage from my #ITC spirit box session at Garden of Memories cemetery in Kerrville, Texas. I documented 29 clear, direct, conversational replies via two different spirit boxes: my own proprietary app and one called Necrometer. This took a lot of time and effort to compile. The replies are loud and clear enough to hear without the need for transcription, but I’ve listed the replies below for easy reference. “Aloha!” “Fine.” “Not dead!” “Light.” “Full of it!” “We doubt.” “Take a tutorial.” “Two!” “Dex.” “Ben.” “Look.” “Let talk enter.” “I’m not in peace.” “Control at our light.” “Light!” “I was there with God!” “But we’re both God!” “Like one.” “We’re met light.” “It’s light; I will not.” “We have shit.” “Shut up.” “It can’t wait.” “Let us sign it with love!” “Detected that.” “He grabbed tea.” “Hope the best magic.” “An even tack.” “Dead.”

@RMachman I assume this was cold weather exploration ryan? Great to see you be out in weather besides sweltering

Conversational spirit box replies captured after I had taken a quick break to drink my chamomile tea. #paranormal “Detected that.” “He grabbed tea.” “We hope the best magic.” “An even tack.” “Dead.” In the first part of the video, I was transitioning from my own proprietary app (the one I use the vast majority of the time) to the Necrometer app (the one with the white noise). The spirit used my app (which was still running at that point) to validate what I said regarding the comparatively slow launch of Necrometer. The part about the tea made my jaw drop upon review. I didn’t hear it in real time. I always bring a thermos filled with a combination of chamomile and hibiscus teas, as the mixture soothes my stomach. I took a quick tea break before resuming the session. At least one spirit must have observed me! A validation that specific is extremely rare in ITC. I also love the response, “We hope the best magic,” as it validates what I’ve maintained for years: that spirits perceive ITC as a form of “magic,” which I suppose it is. I had to Google the phrase “An even tack,” as I’d never heard it uttered before. According to the search results, the phrase refers to a steady flow of something. In this context, that steady flow likely refers to either to the light or to the flow of spirits into light. #SATX #Spiritual_Glimpse

@RMachman Makes me think of those in San Antonio. Which, sadly you cannot participate in anymore.

Behold! I have just released my quirkiest track yet, a collection of spectral samples (all original) augmented by vintage analogue synthesis and some studio tomfoolery. The result: “GHOST TRACKS”! I have attached a lame one-minute preview, but don’t be lame; click the link to the full high-quality FLAC version on my Bandcamp page! Link below! 👇 ryanmachman.bandcamp.com/track/ghost-tr… The song, title, and artwork were inspired by a local San Antonio legend. The ghosts of children are rumored to haunt a local train track. #SATX #music #musicproducer #paranormal #ghosts

@RMachman @alejodorowsky Spooky.

@alejodorowsky And when our bodies die, our souls light up and speak… x.com/RMachman/statu…

Nada de lo que sucede es inútil. Al enfriarse la lava que derraman los volcanes, en ella crecen los bosques.

@RMachman @JimmyLSwaggart Sounds about right from kids. I have a daughter who did that, all my neices did thst to their barbies also.

One of the best ways to assess a community is to visit the local thrift store. A few photos from my visit to Goodwill of Brownwood, Texas… #texasmeet #txlinks #christianity @JimmyLSwaggart

@RMachman Should have sat down.

More fascinating replies captured during a brief experiment with the Necrometer #ITC spirit box. Towards the end, the Poltertune music box begins chiming out of the blue. #paranormal “Sit.” “Seth.” “Lisa.” You’ll notice that the word “Sit” comes through as I’m leaning over a chair inside the mausoleum. According to FindAGrave, Sunset Memorial Park is home to 15 women named Lisa and seven men named Seth. As I explained yesterday, I almost always use my own proprietary, revolutionary spirit box, as it yields the most consistently impressive, conversational, undebunkable, paradigm-shifting responses in the history of ITC. I used Necrometer briefly during this session to prove that spirits will utilize almost any means to communicate if (and only if) you have established a strong connection. Despite what you may hear and see on TV and YouTube, you cannot visit a supposedly haunted location, fire up an ITC device, ask a series of rude, generic questions, and expect to capture responses from spirits. Before you can begin to capture long, conversational replies like the ones I feature on my page almost every weekday, you must dedicate many years to the pursuit of ITC. This work is not for lazy thrill seekers nor for casual “ghost hunters”; it is a serious, time consuming passion that requires immense patience, tact, and a willingness to open oneself to spirit energies. Even then, only a very small percentage of practitioners can facilitate prolonged conversational spirit box sessions like mine. I mention this not to brag but to set clear expectations.

@RMachman @barbaracrampton I would die of happiness if just one of my childhood crushes or faves noticed me.

The eternally beautiful and talented Barbara Crampton (@barbaracrampton)—star of RE-ANIMATOR, FROM BEYOND, CASTLE FREAK, and many others—talks to me about the #paranormal, the occult, zombies, and more! Check it out! Barbara and I have something in common, believe it or not: a tie to a certain movie studio responsible for killer puppets, demonic toys, and evil bongs. Yes, I have been contracted to contribute some truly kick-ass original music to a forthcoming production! More details as soon as everything is finalized! 🔥🔥

@RMachman @AlisonMoyet That album art is sick.

Here’s my long-overdue cover/interpolation of “Don’t Go” by Yazoo, aka Vince Clarke and @AlisonMoyet. I’ve always loved the UPSTAIRS AT ERIC’S album and wanted to pay homage. All of my original songs are exclusive to Bandcamp, but covers are free, so please enjoy! I did this just for fun. As an outspoken fan of Italo Disco and Hi-NRG music, I incorporated elements of both into my version of “Don’t Go.” I wanted to stay true to the spirit of the original but take a few left turns. A friend said he thought the final result sounded like a Pet Shop Boys song, which I took as a compliment! I programmed most of the layers in my DAW but played the main synth riff by hand to add a human element. I also incorporated some subtle analog tape hiss into the background to make the track sound less clinical. Anyway, I hope you’ll enjoy it! #synthpop #synthwave #electronic #MusicMagic #80smusic #80svibes

@RMachman Maybe he punched francis? Interesting.

I ask spirits for their names and capture five consecutive spirit box validations. The last name uttered, Emma, belonged to that of an infant. #ITC #paranormal “Sallie” “Henry!” “Got Francis. My dukes are good!” “Sherry Lynn provides.” “Please help Emma.” As you can see in the video, I verified that these names do indeed correspond to names of the people interred at Concrete Cemetery in La Vernia. The “my dukes are good” comment is a puzzler!

@RMachman Side note. Jungian psychology has been the most difficult thing for me to grasp.

My new experimental, quasi-ambient piece “Hypnagogic Cinema” invites you into the liminal threshold where waking consciousness dissolves into the dreamlike, a space Jung explored deeply through his encounters with the unconscious. I have attached a one-minute preview, but please visit the Bandcamp link below to listen to the full three-minute song in high-quality FLAC format. 👇 ryanmachman.bandcamp.com/track/hypnagog… It weaves in theta waves—slow, rhythmic brain oscillations linked to profound relaxation, heightened creativity, and the fluid boundary between wakefulness and sleep—to gently nudge the listener toward a meditative, receptive state. Headphones are not optional in this case; they are required. The title “Hypnagogic Cinema” holds layered meanings: 1. A dreamy, enveloping experience akin to sinking into a cinema seat as sounds and subtle sonic visuals unfold like a private late-night screening projected across the inner screen of the mind. 2. A metaphor for the hypnagogic hallucinations that arise in the transitional twilight between wakefulness and sleep—the fleeting, vivid images, patterns, voices, and sensations that flicker into awareness, forming a spontaneous, ever-shifting cinema of the mind. From a Jungian perspective, this hypnagogic realm offers direct access to the unconscious, where archetypal imagery and symbolic content from the collective unconscious can emerge spontaneously. These half-remembered hallucinations aren't mere random noise; they can serve as portals to deeper self-understanding, revealing primordial patterns and guiding creative or transformative insight. The accompanying artwork—designed by me—incorporates a real photograph from an abandoned, decayed hospital. I manipulated the image in Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator. If you enjoy the song, please consider sharing it with others. As an independent artist, I struggle to get my voice heard amongst a sea of noise, so I rely on your support! Thank you! #synthwave #electronicmusic #ambient #dreams #IndieArtist #digitalart #art

@RMachman Please tell me you ate at the cathedral.

Clear, conversational spirit box replies captured as I conclude an #ITC session. #paranormal “Think of us underground.” “I accept fully.” “Because the cathedral is nice for lunch.” The spirit in the first reply is essentially saying, “You think YOU’RE tired and drained? Think of how we feel underground at this cemetery!” I always ask spirits to follow me home after a session. Based on the second reply, at least one spirit accepted the offer that day. Regarding the third reply, there is indeed a small cathedral of sorts (more of a chapel) on the premises. I suppose they’re inviting me back to have a picnic lunch with them at the chapel. I might take them up on the offer! The cemetery is predominantly Irish, so today’s video is perfect for #SaintPatricksDay! Happy Saint Patrick’s Day!

@RMachman @humanleagueHQ I really enjoyed this one.

By popular(?) request, I present my cover/interpolation of “Being Boiled” (aka “that damned Buddha song”) by The Human League (@humanleagueHQ). My original compositions (a whopping 30 as of now!) are on Bandcamp, but this one’s a freebie…because I love you guys…and I can’t be bothered to pay royalties to Phil Oakey, Ian Craig-Marsh, and @martynware. I call this an “interpolation” instead of a “cover” because I added a lot of original elements and took a few left turns. If you’re familiar with the original 1978 song, though, you’ll recognize the underlying melody. If you’re not familiar with the original song, then what the hell’s wrong with you people?! As with all of my recordings, “Being Boiled” consists mainly of software synths and a little studio trickery to add reverb and resonance. The artwork is faithful to the original. Yes, I know that “interpolationally” isn’t a word, but now it is thanks to me! If you dig this song, please share it with your friends! If you hate it, share it with people you despise! Thank you! #Electronic #synth #industrial #synthwave #darkwave #NewMusic
