Who gave the song's title to Selected Ambient Works II? As you know the original cd hasn't titles, but they appeared on internet. Who invented it? Richard? Warp? Who?

If you look on this sites discography I think It explains. Somethingt do with the pictures, the track length, where the pictures are. Each record/cd has little pie graph things. They each represent a song. The size of each songs graph piece is similar to the tracks length. Notice the pie graph are in groups f three I think. Each is a different color. Each Picture has a pe graph in it. Each picture representsa song. The track names are what the pictures are...

the song names are quite universal. i think what woofer meant was: who and why did they name them? oblivously it must be someone important because everyone uses the names. the pictures can be interpretted as you want them to be.
so who decided that these pictures were to be interpretted and universally named as so?

and why do we need the names, who cares about the names... and in sawII which i think is understood as a whole.
i prefer thinking bymyself in the relation bettwen the textures of the pictures and the music textures... relation that may be totally different from yours, but that is what probably richard was looking for, some kind of interaction with the listeners, he makes the music and the game rules and the listener is the one who plays the game... then the master piece is complete.

nacmat: I know what you mean and I agree with you but the interesting question is: "who and why did they name them? so who decided that these pictures were to be interpretted and universally named as so?"
This is what I'd like to know.

I bet it was the first person to make Mp3's of them that named them.
Like that "Complex Equation" track.

Here's your answer. The song titles were invented by the japanese man Takumi Mayazumo. He said himself (and this is a translation) "it's like if an alien were to come to our planet and show us its ways, we would understand to an extent, but if he were to learn our language we could learn far more. I gave titles to these songs so we could help eachother understand them better".

Woofer: the names on SAWII are correspondant with the images on the CD sleave. The pie charts represent certain images, the song titles are just pretty much what those images really are.

It 's helpful to give them names, though. Noone wants to call them DISC TWO, TRACK EIGHT or whatever.
Richard is an arse!!!

Woof, I knew what you meant.... I just dont have a clue.... I've asked myself this a couple of times.... It's definatly from the internet though!
In a similar vein: Musicmatch doesnt know that we affectionatly call Windowlickers track 2 "EQUATION" because they title it !"£$%^&*() in the CDDB.
Little random info for ya all there!

The tracks do NOT have names. Each track is represented by the images.
There is an interview with Paul Nicholson (designer of the Aphex logo and SAW2's concept and artwork, Richard did the photos) on 'that other aphex twin website'.

Whoops, forgot to answer Woofer's original question:
Alan (Fluid) Perry named the SAW2 tracks, and (I think) Gonzi Marchan named AB4's tracks (which also do not have names).

One thing I've noticed is that on Amazon.com the track names are different then the ones listed here on this site...
