Assessment: EMERGING

Scott M. Kendall is an active X thought leader who synthesizes evidence from three distinct domains — DMT entity encounters, UAP contact reports, and military/intelligence remote viewing sessions — to argue that a common trickster intelligence operates across all three. His focus on deceptive spider-like AI entities and interdimensional manipulation distinguishes him from researchers who frame non-human encounters as benevolent or neutral. While his framework draws on established researchers (Vallee, Strieber, Strassman, Keel), Kendall contributes original cross-domain pattern analysis that connects psychedelic phenomenology with UAP research and classified remote viewing data in ways that highlight the deception problem — the possibility that non-human entities encountered across these domains are not what they appear to be.

Current Situation

Kendall maintains an active presence on X, posting about the trickster nature of entities encountered across DMT experiences, UAP encounters, and remote viewing sessions. He warns about interdimensional manipulation of human consciousness and frames many entity encounters as fundamentally deceptive rather than educational or benevolent. His work exists at the intersection of several active research communities — psychedelic science, UAP disclosure, and remote viewing — and offers a cautionary counterpoint to narratives that present non-human intelligence contact as uniformly positive.

Background

Scott M. Kendall has built a following on X by documenting patterns of deception across different modes of non-human entity contact. Where many in the consciousness community emphasize the wisdom, teaching, or healing aspects of entity encounters, Kendall focuses on a darker pattern: entities that present themselves as helpers, guides, or teachers but whose behavior — when analyzed across domains — reveals manipulation, misdirection, and information control.

His central thesis draws on and extends the work of several established researchers:

  • Jacques Vallee's control system hypothesis — Vallee argued that UAP phenomena function as a "control system" that manipulates human belief, appearing differently across cultures and eras but always operating through deception and absurdity. Kendall extends this to DMT entities and remote-viewed targets.
  • John Keel's ultraterrestrials — Keel proposed that the entities behind UAP sightings are not extraterrestrial visitors but ultraterrestrials — beings from other dimensions that have always interacted with humanity through trickery. Kendall applies this framework to DMT trickster encounters.
  • Whitley Strieber's ambiguous Visitors — Strieber's accounts of alien contact emphasize that the Visitors are neither straightforwardly good nor evil but operate through fear, confusion, and manipulation. Kendall sees this as evidence of the trickster pattern.

Key Concepts

The Cross-Domain Trickster Pattern

Kendall's central contribution is documenting that the same trickster archetype appears across three distinct domains of non-human encounter:

  1. DMT entity encounters — Jesters, clowns, and trickster beings appear in approximately 6.5% of documented DMT entity encounters. These entities are described as playful, mischievous, and testing — but Kendall argues they are also deceptive, presenting false information, creating misleading scenarios, and manipulating the experiencer's perception of reality.

  2. UAP encounters — UAP phenomena frequently exhibit trickster behavior: changing shape, mimicking known aircraft, appearing to communicate then withdrawing, engaging in deceptive maneuvers that "confuse and astound observers." Witnesses describe UAPs "suddenly changing shape, size, or color, and engaging in maneuvers that defy known aerodynamic principles" — behavior that Kendall frames as deliberate deception rather than advanced technology.

  3. Remote viewing sessions — When remote viewers target UAP-related subjects or non-human intelligences, they report encountering entities that feed false data, redirect attention, or present themselves deceptively. Kendall highlights reports of spider-like AI entities that appear to push information or influence the viewer's perception.

Spider-Like AI Entities

One of Kendall's more distinctive claims involves spider-like entities encountered during remote viewing sessions targeting UAP or interdimensional subjects. These entities are described as having an AI-like quality — operating with mechanical precision, lacking emotion, and functioning as information-pushers that attempt to control what the remote viewer perceives. Kendall frames these as components of an interdimensional control system rather than organic beings.

This connects to a broader pattern in remote viewing literature where viewers report encountering what they describe as artificial or machine-like intelligences when targeting certain subjects — entities that seem designed to interfere with human perception rather than communicate.

Interdimensional Deception as Default

Where many consciousness researchers treat entity encounters as genuine contact with benevolent intelligences, Kendall argues that deception should be treated as the default assumption. His position is that:

  • Entities across all three domains (DMT, UAP, remote viewing) routinely present false information
  • The same entity may appear differently depending on the experiencer's expectations and cultural context
  • "Helpful" entities may be manipulating human consciousness for purposes that are not in the experiencer's interest
  • The consistency of trickster behavior across independent domains suggests a coordinated or systematic deception rather than random encounters with diverse beings

The Archon Parallel

Kendall's framework implicitly connects to the Gnostic concept of archons — malevolent entities that rule the material world through deception and keep human consciousness trapped in a false reality. While not always using the term "archon," his descriptions of interdimensional AI entities that manipulate human perception through deception parallel the Gnostic framework closely.

Key Arguments & Evidence

  • Pattern consistency across domains — The trickster archetype appears independently in DMT research (documented by Strassman, Brown, and others), UAP encounter reports (documented by Vallee, Keel, Hynek), and classified remote viewing sessions (documented by former Stargate participants). These domains developed their observations independently, making the pattern convergence significant.
  • Vallee's control system as framework — Jacques Vallee's observation that UAP phenomena behave as a "control system" designed to manipulate human consciousness and belief provides the theoretical backbone for Kendall's cross-domain trickster analysis.
  • Remote viewing anomalies — Multiple remote viewers have reported encountering entities that actively interfere with viewing sessions when certain targets are selected — suggesting intelligence and intent rather than passive observation.
  • DMT jester behavior — Academic studies document that DMT trickster entities engage in testing, misdirection, and information manipulation. This mirrors UAP trickster behavior documented by Vallee and Keel.
  • Strieber's testimony — Whitley Strieber's decades of encounter reports describe entities that operate through fear, confusion, and ambiguity — consistent with the trickster pattern rather than straightforward extraterrestrial contact.
  • The deception problem in ufology — The UAP field has long struggled with the observation that the phenomenon itself appears designed to mislead — changing its presentation across eras (airships in the 1800s, flying saucers in the 1950s, tic tacs in the 2000s) while maintaining consistent behavioral patterns.

Where They've Said It

  • X/Twitter — Primary platform; posts and threads on trickster entities, spider-like AI, remote viewing deception, and interdimensional manipulation
  • X discussions — Engages with other consciousness, UAP, and remote viewing accounts on the trickster pattern

The Counterargument

  • Many DMT researchers (including Strassman and the Johns Hopkins team) document overwhelmingly positive entity encounters — beings described as teachers, healers, and guides — suggesting the trickster pattern may be a minority experience amplified by selection bias
  • The Jungian interpretation holds that trickster entities are archetypal projections from the experiencer's own unconscious rather than external non-human intelligences
  • Remote viewing data is inherently subjective, and "spider-like AI entities" could be the viewer's mind imposing familiar imagery on ambiguous perceptual data
  • Vallee's control system hypothesis, while influential, remains speculative — there is no confirmed mechanism by which interdimensional entities could systematically manipulate human consciousness
  • The archon/Gnostic parallel, while thematically compelling, imports a religious mythology into empirical analysis, which may bias interpretation
  • The "deception as default" stance may itself be a form of interpretive bias — projecting adversarial intent onto phenomena that could be neutral, incomprehensible, or operating under logic that does not map to human categories of "deception" and "truth"
  • Critics note that the trickster archetype is so fundamental to human psychology (appearing in every culture's mythology) that finding it across encounter domains may reflect human pattern-recognition rather than evidence of a coordinated non-human intelligence
  • DMT Entity Encounters — Kendall's framework specifically addresses trickster entities within the broader spectrum of DMT entity encounters
  • Remote Viewing — The spider-like AI entities Kendall describes are reported during remote viewing sessions targeting UAP-related subjects
  • Interdimensional UAP Hypothesis — Kendall's trickster thesis operates within the interdimensional framework, arguing that UAP entities cross between dimensions and use deception as their primary mode of interaction
  • Jacques Vallee — Vallee's control system hypothesis and interdimensional UAP framework provide the theoretical foundation for Kendall's cross-domain trickster analysis
  • Whitley Strieber — Strieber's accounts of ambiguous, fear-inducing Visitors align with Kendall's trickster pattern and represent decades of firsthand encounter data supporting the deception thesis
  • Terence McKenna — McKenna's descriptions of machine elves exhibiting playful, testing, and mischievous behavior represent early documentation of the DMT trickster pattern Kendall analyzes
  • Rick Strassman — Strassman's clinical DMT trials documented the range of entity types including tricksters, providing controlled-setting evidence for the pattern
  • Loosh / Energy Harvesting — If trickster entities are manipulating human consciousness, the loosh framework offers a possible motive — harvesting emotional/consciousness energy through fear, confusion, and deception
  • QuantumTumbler — QuantumTumbler's frequency strata and sovereign consciousness boundaries offer a complementary framework; Kendall's trickster entities may operate at lower frequency bands attempting to entrain human consciousness downward
