Harkonnen Temple, a Symbol of Intemperance & Brutality

Well you only have to look at Gigers other Works to find it linked with Alien. The Xeno, The Derelict, the Architecture (both Derelict, Temple Chambers and Alien Hive) The Eggs, Face Hugger and Chest Burster are all in his works of Art, the same Art Work that has the Alien Cycle has what apears like Space Jockeys, by that looks like the Prometheus SJ not the Alien one. So its interesting that his other works not tied to Alien/Aliens etc, show a Eel/Xeno a Leech like worm and Hybrid Female in a sexual context. Other images of Worm/Leeches. And off course these Dunes.... Maybe these will all tie in with Prometheus?

Raging storms? Check we see a few scenes that look like a Sand Storm which we thought could be a explotion of some kind, maybe its not but connected to what Giger describes the Dunes purpose. The Dune Temples, all seem to have a head ontop... maybe thats where Prometheus gets the Head Statue inside instead of ontop. It describes the Dunes Function has turning living mater into Energy. (maybe thats why the SJ need us i.e the invitation.) "Harkonnen is a gigantic Moloch, which functions by converting living beings into energy. Every visitor is materially or spiritually exploited " Moloch means God/King who is sacreficed children by Fire to feed it energy. The Chair of the Dune Temple also looks like the one in the Derelict Cockpit/Bridge.

Here is a interesting sketch from whats inside the Harkonnen Castle concept.

The head on the mountain is just one of the revealed images that's really captivated me. I truly hope the head doesn't open up for battle or anything silly like that. It serves a powerful enough purpose for me by just exisiting. Like the huge head, it conveys a silent and frightening feeling just as it is. Who needs statues disguised as battle stations? A very tired and cliched concept.
