Sad to hear of the passing of the incredible artist H.R. Giger (1940-2014). He is most famously known for the creepy Alien creatures, but has been an influence into art, music and culture in general. The creativity and technical ability he possessed is phenomenally rare. Truly inspirational, twisted and amazing. He died at age 74 from injuries suffered in a fall. 😦 RIP.
