Dear Joseph, hope, you’re fine. Since the two blogs about the octopusses I can not have one of my favourite meals “Spaghetti Marinara” without remembering my shocking experience in the cinema in the beginning 80ties watching Alien 1.. I love to chew on them, but now it has changed and, I guess, will be eternally be linked to my head cinema playing the scene in the surgery room. How did Giger, who designed the beast, could have known all this. It’s my personal Spaghetti Monster. Just a laugh. All the best grom Berlin, CS, the (a)fraidtend noodle 😉
Giger was inspired by his own work for the Alien concept. http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GbGDGThVMAo/SpcbMme3VoI/AAAAAAAAAKE/q7RPtbOzJnI/s1600/necronom_iv.jpg His painting style was called biomechanical.. wand was in turn inspired by his mother having metal implant surgery when he was little.. The overly blatent sexual overtones of the paintings I hope were inspired by other things.. Visit his museum in Gruyere Switzerland.. Its really interesting, especially the café next to it. You’ll feel like you’re drinking a café latté (cream from gruyeres.. do it!!) in the Alien Queens birthing chamber 🙂
This is what inspired Dan O Brannon. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vMG-LWyNcAs (dont click if you’re eating 🙂 Nature >Science Fiction… -.° and check out the last thing the caterpillar does (if you get that far..)….. Mind Control ??

This museum is not at the top of my priorities 🙂
