The cover reminds me of the cover of Gary Numan's 1979 single Complex, especially the eyes. Both also look quite crappy. The idea isn't bad, but the realisation is, the design is too complex, too restless. If the cover would be just an element on a larger picture and the other parts would be simpler, it would look quite fine.
I actually quite like the O-logo as an idea, but the golden colouring makes it look like the one ring.
Overall, I do think the cover should be kind of a dual image, illusitrating the the name and the dual nature of the album. For instance, this current image and a negative of this image side-by-side on a black backround.
And in the end, accroding to MikeOldfield.com, "the proposed artwork for the album is not finished...", so maybe there's hope still.
