Giger, called H. R. Giger's Necronomicon. It is an oversized paper-bound book containing many of his works and some narration about his life. It includes many of his "bio-mechaniods" and precursors to the monster he developed for "Alien". The book mentions that when someone introduced him to the airbrush, he went on a compulsive painting binge, filling all the canvases he had, then painting all the interior walls of his house in Switzerland, and finally painting over the insides of the windows when he ran out of wall space. The book is trully gruesome and wonderful. If I had it here, I'd give more information about publisher, etc. I found out about it originally through OMNI magazine. -- Robert Reed, Logic Design Systems Division, tektronix!teklds!bobr
