The Scream
Talk0The Scream was a painting by Edvard Munch created to trap the Warp Core, which he described as an infinite scream through nature. The Master, sensing its power, stole the painting while it was on Earth but awakened the Warp Core. Damien Pierson took the painting back to the Warp Core's home Duchamp 331. The Seventh Doctor attempted to quietly steal the painting before its historical destruction for his personal gallery. (AUDIO: Dust Breeding)
Behind the scenes 
Edit
Added by The Librarian- Munch actually painted two other versions of this painting which presumably don't contain the power of an alien weapon.
- The Doctor Who Magazine preview illustration (in DWM 306) depicting AUDIO: Dust Breeding was a parody of the Scream.
- The Shriek from PROSE: The Art of Destruction was possibly named after this piece.
- The Silents were designed after the image of the screaming figure in the painting. Steven Moffat has said that the idea was that the aliens had been with us for centuries and the painting actually depicted one. [1]
