Annotation
"Windowlicker" is probably the most well known Aphex Twin track, due to the controversial Chris Cunningham video.
Track 2 is sometimes referred to with the short-hand "Formula" or "Equation", but the title listed is as close as possible to the graphic that appears on the sleeve.
This track was largely created with Metasynth, a piece of software that allows users to create music from digital images. Playing the CD through a spectrographic analyser reveals a picture of Richard James at around 5.27 into the track. (See Wired for more info.)
