from the gaurdian interview:
James is hardly backwards when it comes to revealing his own twisted thought processes. "The other day, I was lying in bed, stoned," he remembers. "I was thinking, 'What's the scariest thing you could think of?' And I ended up imagining people coming into my house and doing hideous things to me, tying me up, stripping me naked, and squirting this foam into my mouth and down my throat, shoving it up my nose, into my ears, jamming it into my tear ducts, until it all went solid. I was getting the Fear. I had to go, 'Think about something nice, you twat!'"
NOW THAT'S COMEDY!!!!!!!! he's halarious.

. "I was thinking of getting these rockets for my tank. Side-mounting missiles. Just think: thousands of pounds for just one push of the button."

I love reading his insight. The highlights in my opinion were:
he's officially announced to be a millionaire. He has a low boredom threshold (nicely put) his best music evokes feelings that can't be described, unsure what feeling it is.
"the best musicians/artists are people who never considdered themselves to be an artist/musician."
"No one becomes this successful by behaving like a loon. You can't just make good art these days, you've got to be a good buisness man. (admits image was a tad put on, and gives good advice)"

I also liked:"You can't just make good art these days," is his parting bit of advice to all those Aphex wannabes out there. "You've got to be a good businessman. I'm good at psychology - I can see how to play certain situations. I'm a good chess player. You've got to recognise all the possibilities."
and
He's a nice boy, really. Although he has been known to polish off whole bottles of White Russian vodka "because they drank it in The Big Lebowski"
the big lebowski is a fantastic film.
SO THERE!
