Honestly the connection would never have occurred to me. I know some famous Pink Floyd songs and that one album cover with the refracted light, plus vaguely that poster with all the butts (which is a bunch of album covers I guess, though if you asked me to describe the covers being depicted to you without looking the only one I’d know for sure would be the refracted light and mayyybe the brick wall)

I’m just saying this is a more obscure reference than I think you realize

Images that sweep out to the horizon point are easily described as endless. Vistas of clouds out an airplane window really do look like big floating bodies of water. I’ve been staring out airplane windows since I was a kid, imagining boats and islands and etc and I didn’t need Pink Floyd’s help to get there

I had to Google to find the image you’re talking about because I had never seen it before and I don’t think I’m all that unusual in never having seen it before

Edited to add: the album you’re talking about came out in 2014 and that’s kind of fascinating to me, because if you’d asked me I would have guessed that Pink Floyd stopped putting out original music by like the early 1980s at the latest

Raise your hand if you knew there was a new Pink Floyd album within the last ten years
