Stopped by Southern Exposure yesterday to get out of the rain, and found this art project. From its description:

The Magnetic Darkness Egg, by Ean Huggins McLean.

The magnetic darkness egg replicates a womb environment and increases the magnetic resonance of the body.

Instructions for use:

Take off shoes.
Enter egg and sit comfortably facing north (face the gold foil).
Close the door and relax.

Review:

Increase in magnetic resonance not apparent, but reviewer did feel pleasantly like an elf hiding in a tree stump.
