Or, at least, I think it's performance art. This guy's shtick is that he acts insane in public while delivering social messages. Tell me what you think.

From your description, I was expecting some Rooster Teeth.

Where do you find these videos?

 

That was interesting to say the least. I still don't know if I got the message, is it take the time to look at the big picture, take in the peace? Don't act insane in public or you'll get treated like a weirdo?

You have no idea how hard I'm trying to understand what you're talking about.

Many of his videos have a "Love the moment." sentiment, and I think this has a similar theme. He's basically saying that, like he repeatedly says throughout the video: "Love is now."

 

In the very beginning, he's trying to show everyone that love is now. The simple act of people eating hamburgers together is beautiful to him. It's nothing extravagant, but it's a way of sharing compassion. He's confused when people don't listen to his philosophy and reject his affection. After he goes to that painting, he decides to stop forcing this idea onto people, and to sit back and listen to his own advice. When doing this, he discovers the love that moment holds: children playing, people relaxing, etc. And by him quietly sitting there, becomes the part of that moment's love.

 

Or at least, that's what middle-of-night me thinks. Hope my ramblings made sense. I'd like to know if anyone else has a better interpretation.

I can see how it would be baffling.

 

 

This is them.
