***
The technology for dream machines was secretly developed in the early 1970's. It was the result of various experiments with analog and fluid computers. It has been used for military training and for therapeutic experiments.
Eventually it was classified as 'dangerous' because of it's apparent illegal use by zen buddists and LSD addicts, and the technology was discarded as 'irrelevant' by the military.
However, in the underground hippy scene it's function was recognized and a few functional machines have been saved from destruction.
Some abandoned machines have been recovered and restored in a working state.
Using advanced modern virtualization techniques, a working replica of this magnificent machine is now available to all SL residents

Active program: Dream Machine :: Meditation 1
This relaxing program soothes the mood.
After a 2-minute intro, with soothing voice, the program transposes into a computer-generated audial experience.
Surround sounds with various atmospheres, from deligtful to intriguing, aid your mind to focus on your inner peace.
On the background, almost unnoticeable, is a stereo effect based on the ´meditative healing frequency´ of around 528Hz, with a 10Hz difference between left and right, aiding to bring your brain waves down to the optimal brain wave frequency of 10-13Hz.
The visual ´cloud fractal´ changes it's view only limited by your fantasy.
Length: 7-90 minutes per session suggested.

Brilliant invention.
I love this it's fantastic and I am hoping you will create more of them. It is so cool how the screen appears in the air as you sit down and how the lines on the lounger move. The price was great too and I like how you took the time to address any possible issues and instructions within you description here. Thank you.
Calming, and mixed
This was a very good product. Not only did it help calm a friend of mine down, it calmed me down as well. The video is soothing, and the music is so well-composed that it was a dream to listen to with headphones. Well worth the lindens, and I will be using it quite a bit.
