Music for Moving in Slow Motion is about the slowing, halting, and reversing of the directional flow of linear time.   It is about the significance of the possibly infinite space that exists between any two instants.  It is about experiencing symmetrical time.  At some moments the proverbial arrow for a single event is subtly (or not so subtly) manipulated, while at others, multiple events are frozen and superimposed onto each other, creating a hyper-simultaneity out of what was once sequence, thereby eliminating it.   Time is treated as space, as an elastic solid that can be twisted and moved in any direction, and there is an attempt to find the smallest temporal unit, if it exists at all.
