Severance : Petey’s map from the Apple TV series Severance, (first Broadcast 2022)

  

 a) Petey’s map from the Apple TV series Severance, (first Broadcast 2022)

 

 

b) References ZDF (work 433) (1980) by HR Giger?

I watched the series 1 of Reverance in 2025,  I saw the map and was inspired to wonder what image associations one could make with it.

I went straight for a comparison with Giger’s ZDF

The two side by side. 

So ZDF would have helped the artist to come up with ideas for the complicated patterns

 

HR Giger's "ZDF" work 433 (1980)

c) A head that transforms into a circular area with what looks like letters spelling out “God!”I side

 

d) Shoulder formation transforms into a little head with a crown on top

 

e)The bent pipe linked to the shoulder area becomes a corridor

f) The sword hilt becomes the arrow

g) The hole in the side of the tube  becomes the red square

 

h) Rounded biomorph becomes a circle

i) The opening with spouts of the biomorph becomes a maze like area

 

j) The area beneath the arm becomes the team building , while the hand becomes the head of a man

k) The dome on a head becomes a bubble with the word MIND written within

 

k) The curved blade tipped like tendril becomes the curved arrow
