I enjoy the sounds of a french DJ named Vitalic. It's heavy, disco influenced surreal sounds haunt me and i love it. He can be....deep and his live performances seem more like performance art than live music (cough, cough lady gaga) so i thought "surely he would have a hand in his album cover design."



so naturally i started digging...
The album title as seen above is Flashmob. The lines of smoke are the "constants" and the triangle in the middle is "break" in the constant. The triangle also creates a nice V shape to echo the V from the band name. The fact that the triangle is breaking up the constant is a reference to a flashmob where a few stand out from the many by action or simply being different. So the cover is a visual representation of an actual flashmob and not just a photoshop exercise. nice.
