I'm pleased with the way the boards turned out on this one. The illustration looks like a single engraved picture wrapping the book but it's collaged from a pair of smaller pictures and many tiny details from elsewhere. The buildings are all Irish ones as well.

The front board of A Mind Turned in Upon Itself -- Writings on J.S. Le Fanu by Jim Rockhill. An engraved illustration in dark blue on a cyan background showing a woman in Victorian dress reading on a seat outside an old, ivy-covered building. Trees and ferns frame the right-hand side of the picture.

It does benefit from a break between the two EPs. I always treat them as separate entities.

Gescom's 'Helix Shatterproof', on the 1998 'Minidisc' album, is one of the most Autechre-sounding Autechre tracks and seems to have its origins in twanging the end of a plastic ruler. Hear it twanging towards the end of the latest edition of A Duck in a Tree, now out as a podcast: bit.ly/4nWqu3L

I've seen a few iterations of it, but can't seem to find any single source the design points to.
