I'm thinking he was shooting mounted with a long shutter time, specifically to get this effect. Static objects come out extra sharp, things that move are blurred- giving this an almost animated effect. The infrared is nice as well.
This was a quiet room, its where they put patients to calm down when thought to go into episodes.
I was a patient here as a teenager, thats how I know this.
I worked in building 22 for a couple of years ward 6 or 5 Max security for new patients from 63 to aprox 65
Your site is fascinating. Thank you for all of your hard work and, I'm sure much sacrifice. I'm not sure if the west coast has these type of places. Actually,I do know of one small facility near the area I live in.

The Vikings are driven in over forty feet, because the whole park is built on swamp. This has always been like this, since there was no real need to pump out this area, it looked like this when the park was open too.

You have no idea how refreshing it is on a hot summer day when you hit about 120 with the heat index... unfortunately, with the extreme humidity, that "oh thank heaven" only last about 10 seconds, then you are just covered in hot water.

If this is the one I'm thinking of, it not only spun, it swung pendulum style out over the lake in one direction, and the rest area in the other direction.

Shame, it was fun. You went through the ride to forewards, then backwards. Although I remember my brother and niece getting nauseated on it.

Actually, this was an awesome ride, and was built over a manmade pond when it was Jazzland (I had a year long pass when they opened, but never made it to six flags, it was too expensive). It felt more like flying than falling, because it was a huge swing.
