This artwork was used on the cover of the Pulse DVD and subtly references the eye of the original Pulse album cover.
Storm Thorgerson recalled, "It seemed so appropriate that the design should consist of two things and be eyes, after the original - thus two eyeballs, two large glass eyeballs, round like the discs and made as a sculpture to sit in some open landscape to echo the spaciousness of the music. Hothouse made perspex hemispheres and we used prints of the original iris to be inserted and make a glass eye, each one measuring about four feet across. We made two, took them down to Burnham Beach on the west coast of Britain, and photographed them in natural light, balancing one on top of the other".
