Aphex lying about his age?

In the booklet of the Articial Intelligence compilation it
says The Dice Man - Polygon Window - Age: 17!

Well, Richard D. James was born in 1971, right? And "AI" was
released in 1993... so then he was 22 and NOT 17?!? Weird...

maybe he named it when i was created rather than when it was
released ? You almost have 1234 points by the way!

it's his age when he created this music, nothing more. It
doesn't have to be the same as when it was released.

sometimes the people who write press-releases have no clue
as to what the real age of the artist is.
then that gets mirrored to venue-promoters, reviewers etc,
and suddenly you're 25, being touted as anything from 24, 20
and 22.

Richard looks a lot younger in the flesh than photos/his
alledged age would suggest. He looked like he was in his mid
to late 20s when I saw him outside in daylight at ATP.
