 Huxley successfully patented his design of the beam in 1984.The instrument has since been used to create dark unnatural sounds in other movie soundtracks in the late 1970s and early 1980s including the films "The Black Hole", "Forbidden World", "Dreamscape", and "Meteor", in the last of which it was used during shots of the giant looming meteorite as it approached Earth.It has also been used by new age artists including Kitaro, Stearns and Huxley.
