The Method: MKUltra Subproject 68
Officially sanctioned on March 18th, 1957, MKUltra Subproject 68 lasted for two full years, with Dr. Cameron receiving annual funding of $20, 000.
Declassified CIA documents reveal the purpose of and mechanics of the program, a far cry from how the experiments were actually carried out in many cases.

MKUltra Subproject 68's main objective, and Dr. Cameron's, was to find a chemical agent that would break down patterns of behavior, or a person's personality/memory, while also inserting new behaviors and mindsets. Five drugs were listed to be used, either alone or in combination, including potent hallucinogenic LSD.
"After considerable experimentation" Dr. Cameron managed to create an official procedure to create "lasting changes in a patient's behaviour," that, in what was deemed "successful" cases, caused a patient to act differently for up to two months. Broken into four parts, Cameron's procedure was as follows:
Use of intensive electroshocks to break down a patient's behavior ("depatterning")
Forced listening of a repetitive "verbal signal" for 16 hours a day, over 6-7 days ("intensive repetition")
Covering of the eyes and ears in order to deprive the senses during the intensive repetition ("sensory isolation")
Putting the patient into a drug-induced coma, with sleep periods lasting 7-10 days ("repression of the driving period")
By April 23rd, 1959, over 100 individuals were subjected to the Subproject 68 procedure, already seems quite extreme.
In practice, the experiments enacted by Cameron onto his unwitting patients, who had no idea they were guinea pigs in a CIA-funded experiment, were far more horrific.
