Alternative Cover Art for Diamond Head
|
Sunburned face has a phrenological cross-section. This illustrates the idea of the labyrinthian folds of the mind as sections or rooms over the walls of which ideas must flow, and then they are contained in the appropriate areas when this input is captured. The head contains a multifaceted diamond, the brain. |

A main character in the story is Uncle Gil, who becomes like Poseidon, the ancient voice of the sea. He speaks about the intelligence in the water, hence the brain coral. |
Collage shows caustics on water. Map of Diamond
Head. There are two images of heads: One, a dark
face is speaking to a perhaps sunburned face. The
speach is imaged as a streamer of color braking on
the faces of the sunburned tourist; the speach is
in a context of a shimmer of caustics. 
Collage shows caustics on one side of a pyramidal
diamond. Another face of the diamond shows a full
moon over night ocean. The movement of color waves
from left to right suggests the diamond head
pyramid as a filter, moving into complexity of
city. The diamond-pyramid is a symbol of the
organazing principal of place.
