The equation looks like it could be some sort of statistician's equation.

this is actually well funny reading the posts, you can do a good fft analysis on cooledit pro btw......oh and that track is great! I think its the only track rdj has done with equations in it..he said something like he does it for the feeling and maths can be manipulated to fit anything.....very true....i stop now before rambling again :)

When I first saw the equation title, to me it looked like a message or title containing "Aphex Twin", not an equation used in creating the song.
http://theaphextwin.com/discography/Images/equation.gif
In particular, the last chunk of the equation after the + sign looks like Fextin, or Afex Twin. Sort of like an anagram of his name, like lots of other songs (Xepha, Wax the nip, Acrid Avid Jamshred, etc.).

when i heard it in Cymru Beats i always thought it was "puck"... the p-sound seems very clear there.
But later i also bought the windowlicker-ep... and it's definitly "fuck".

i'm sorry, but what do you mean when you say "redom"?
I'd love to be entertained by this song aswell :-D I don't listen to the ep much because i can't stand the equation-track... but the other 2 songs on there are really wonderful.

sorry i meant rythm by redom lol cos the rythm in this equation track is like u can catch it for a second then if flows away, and rules back at you like a wave...

I have been slowly building up my coding skills. I am mostly self taught (reading books and the internet...) but I have been taking a few classes in javascript and c++ recently, I have never come across fft. Can some one sum up what it does? is?

the fourier transform, in essence, decomposes or separates a waveform or function into sinusoids of different frequency which sum to the original waveform.
it hasent really got anything to do directly with coding.

the equation itself doesn't mean anything...made up basically...
It cropped up at Slashdot when the hidden face got higlighted by Wired (about a yr after it was first found...)...

For me it sounds like "Tack! Tack" It is swedish for "Thanks" or "Thank You" It is deffinetly a "T" sound in the begining of the word. Whicked track! The sounds are still fresh today i think. Lots of artists have tried to copy the style but that is the original Math track yo!

don't if the equation stands for anything, but it looks cool!
the track sounds like filler though, only here for the hidden faces... i prefer vaz deferenz (which i don't love but still kinda like, and everyone seems to hate it).
