I was wondering what the symbolic significance is of the mask that is seen on all Shpongle’s album covers?

Not entirely sure, but it does resemble the cover of Pink Floyd - Relics, so that might be one possible source of inspiration.

I’ve heard that as well, and see the resemblance of course.  Perhaps they decided to take the 3rd eye concept and do it one better by making 3 SETS of eyes, hehehe.

BTW, is there any way we can get a copy of the digital 3D file of the mask to play with?
