This book showcases paintings and poems that are inspired by the songs of British Rock Band, Pink Floyd. The correspondence between visual arts and lyric is not new to music lovers. As a band, Pink Floyd extolled this correspondence to its extreme in concerts and shows. A set of fifteen paintings accompanied by poems is a study of these aspects covering life, philosophy, anthropology and romanticism. The semiotics on display are of value to one who aspires to a life beyond life in the existential trappings of the present because “all that is now, all that is gone, all that’s to come and everything under the sun is in tune but the sun is eclipsed by the moon” (Eclipse, The Dark Side of the Moon, Pink Floyd, 1973)
