What does the logo stand for?

I never really thought about the meaning of the logo. I always think it's an A or something. Any explanation out there?

I "heard" it's meant to be a saw

it looks like A T W in one letter and it also looks like its a dick with balls and a boomerang

It's a saw, and an A.

Saw = selected ambient works. (Don't try and tell me with all his anagramism he didn't think about the acronym carefully.)

A = Aphex.

it's an "a" you twits

ya isn't it an A made to look 'alieny', because aliens were cool in 1992?

Uhhhh, I think its a Q.

The guy who designed it was interviewed about it; he just said that he had designed it and aphex liked it

It stands for the exploration of new sounds through any means necessary

its the merck symbol for laughing gas

You could also see it as an adaptation of "λ", the symbol for wavelength.

Or decay constant

Or linear charge density.

Or any form of linear density I've encountered, really.

is spoze to look like a cunt bending over innit

the art on the disc of the rdj album cd has 3 of them arranged in a way that it looks like a weird cartoon frog face. i just think of that whenever i see it.

If you measure the angles of it and divide it by the circumference of a 12" you get the secret formula of unlocking the powers of the pyramids that was built by the Atlanteans before they left for Sirius B.

Buddies, I don't see a saw in this logo.

Could one of you nerd draw me some explicative sketch that would allow me to understand the secret meaning of what just seems to be an "A" ?

Thanks.

No need to - it is just an 'A'.

it's an ancient Cornish symbol that represents the ancient Celtic god Dwrydd, who was appeased by scratching this symbol into the forehead of captured Devonians who were then thrown into the sea

it's a special boomerang used by Australian natives
