From Perpetual Doom's Bandcamp page:

"“Museum at the End of Time” was developed by Ryan Pollie in conjunction with video synthesis artists Nicole & Paul Pichon with the intention of alleviating anxiety through an audio visual trance state. The idea was conceived by Pollie while toying with concepts of unguided, self-induced audial and visual hypnosis. Similar to “mantra”, the repeated melodic patterns within the music are intended to create a strong sense of calm and focus. The visuals, powered by both analog and digital video synthesizers, were built and rebuilt to become one intuitive interface that assists further in what is promised to be an important if not transcendent moment for the listener/viewer.

This new way of intaking sound has now been patented and will be further developed with the goal of helping others in the field of psychospiritual practice. The hope is to assist with meditation and mindfulness exercises, making a spiritual or meaningful experience easier to attain.

Directions for listening and viewing: Please use over the ear headphones, ideally ones effective for blocking out outside noise. The screen you view on can be a TV or a laptop, but it is recommended to be in darkness to deprive your senses of outside awareness. For maximum and desired effects, it is best to experience the full piece. Deep breaths are helpful during the first section of the piece. Do not be concerned with wandering thoughts, as the mind will quiet eventually. Please note that it is possible for unexpected or strong emotions to come up while in a deep meditation."
