a) N.Y. City II Lovecraft over N.Y. City (work 452) (1980) by HR Giger

 

b) I'm having the idea of this photo from Radio Times Monday 6th January 1975 found at Radio Times collectors group on Facebook,  also being referenced , which seems rather ludicrous to think other than this was something that caught his eye in a magazine, and linked with the idea of watching TV.

c) However to make them connect, one would have to turn the photo of the woman with the TV back to front and then put them side by side.

 

d)  The profile of her head becomes the profile of the space jockey like mask in the upper center, and the large curve at the bottom right wrapping around perhaps a head of a humanoid whose ribbed body dominates the lower half of the painting

 

e)  So, the frame around the TV screen becomes the lower horizontal spike and the tendril going over the metal animal head.

 

f)  That might also mean that the part of the TV with the speaker on the front, which also has horizontal lines running up it might become the ribcage with the channel knob becoming the circular structure of the head of this thing , shown here rotated to the left so that it's vertical rather than horizontal

 

g) So that knobs further up the TV might when rotated to the left also become the row of pipe openings.
