Pink Floyd Dark Side of the Moon album




These shots of Pink Floyd's album 'Dark Side of the Moon' show how they construct a CD album and what images they used on the front, back and some of the insert. The images were produced by Storm Thorgerson and are incredibly iconic, with this album being one of the best selling, worldwide, of all time. This album may not be an original, yet it gives a strong impression of the appearance of the original vinyl releases and provide a good impression as to what kind of simplistic style they went for with the album. We feel working this image into part of our ancillary tasks would be a good idea, utilizing the pre-established iconicity of the prism and the connotations which it holds, adding a depth which the audience will be able to connect with through association.
