Having met Genesis Breyer P Orridge numerous times over the years as well as other members of TOPY , Psychick TV , Throbbing Gristle and both of Gens wives Paula and Jackie maybe i can try to explain this video from a different perspective. Thee Temple ov Psychick Youth was a result of Gen's interest in cults including the Manson Family,Jim Jones peoples temple and Ron Hubbard's Scientology. extreme imagery was often projected on a large screen behind the band during gigs and visitors to Gen's London house were shown video's he claimed were real snuff films when in fact they were mondo films such as faces of death. Most of the TOPY texts and films are an attempt by Gen to be taken seriously as an occult leader however when the cult grew to be a worldwide phenomena various disputes between its creator and its members resulted in Gen abandoning TOPY and threatening legal action against the cult. What You will See on this compilation of videos is an attempt to shock and attract people to the cult. If any of this footage was real Gen would be in prison. This was made when Video was a new thing and it was rare to see such material but today its can be seen as a rather poor attempt to shock. Gen is currently trying to create a new cult THEE ONE TRUE TOPI TRIBE to a new generation of gullible people and this time its based on Hells Angel Biker culture.
