Here's my full correspondence with Jim and Karla. Most of this interview was edited out of the book to give a little bit of info on everyone. Thanks again to the Murrays. Enjoy:
Hope you had a good holiday weekend. Sorry it took so long to get back to you but here are a few questions for the book. Thanks so much for taking the time to answer them! Also, just curious are you the same BANE that painted with the MSG guys on the 1492 wall in Ft Lauderdale that was done around 2001? We know you painted on the wall with the elephant background but weren't sure about that other wall.
To answer your "pre-question", yes I was on that wall and crew. That wall was put together by myself and DASK. We had PRISCO coming down from NY and he wanted to have an old explorer type feel to a production. So we sat down and banged out a layout.
1. How did you get your tag? Is there a story behind it?
BANE was a name I chose for a few reasons. I enjoyed it's definition as being poisonous, bringing a downfall, feeling of woe. At the time I was looking for a smaller, more fitting tag to use for bombing and I liked the letters/definition.
2. How would you describe your style of painting?
Well, in the beginning I concentrated a lot on the fluidity of my pieces. Learning this required a lack of complexity to my sketches. In other words, my pieces looked smooth, easy to interpret and not very noisy/busy. Lately, as is with everything in life I have begun building on this and adding to the complexity of them. I think, or I would like to believe that looking at something as simple as writing your name is a clue into what kind of person you are. This carries over into the question you asked and would say that my style of painting is well-thought-out. Calculated. Every letter, bit, extension, piece of 3-D, etc is positioned the way it is because that is exactly the way I felt it should be. I think the term "science fiction" works because I am using laws that I have put in place yet still being creative.
3. Did you have a mentor or are you self-taught?
My relationship with my mentors wasn't the typical teacher/apprentice relationship. The guys that schooled me were my peers. Friends. COMA showed me how to piece. CAR and OBAE, bombing. SEFER showed me how to sketch. CHASE gave me can control. CROME pushed me and that allowed me to advance my style. I think between the two of us we established how to do productions.
4. What crew/ crews are you down with?
I push my crew, RM. In the past I have been affiliated with some of the bigger crews in Miami: MSG and DAM. However I feel that we went in our different directions and I wasn't along for the ride either by my own decision (MSG) or the crews (DAM).
5. Do you mostly freestyle your pieces or sketch them out?
I have done both. I do prefer having a sketch though (refer back to question 2)
6. How did you get interested in graffiti in the first place? What was the motivation?
It was fascinating. Seeing the tags. Hearing the stories. Meeting new parts of the city. Breaking the law and getting away with it. Getting fame by recognition. Creating these masterpieces. Chilling with others that have different ways than your own. It actually gave you an honorable feeling when you met another writer whose work you've seen and they give you props.
As for the motivation, a lot of writers depend on competition to motivate them. I personally think that my graffiti is a way for people to know me that I haven't met and that it will outlast me as a person. I am just a man who lives in Miami during this period of time. Through documentation (like this book), my graffiti is accessible throughout the world and for the rest of civilization. I think that says something.
7. What do you think of the Miami graffiti scene in general?
Going back to what I was saying about motivation, I think a lot of people in this city are specifically concerned with what everyone else is doing. "We gotta do this cause they did that" or "I'm gonna go over so-and-so to get fame". Bullshit. You have the freedom to do whatever you want and you're stuck looking at everyone else and measuring against what they're doing? We need more originality down here as well as more self-focus.
As much as everyone talks about how much beef there is in this city at the same time there is a lot more unity as well. Look at how many more events there are. You guys are publishing a book. It's the whole "glass half-full" philosophy.

About Guardians of the Galaxy
Marvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy,” which first appeared in comic books in Marvel Super-Heroes, Issue #18 (Jan. 1969), is an action-packed, epic space adventure, that expands the Marvel Cinematic Universe into the cosmos, where brash adventurer Peter Quill finds himself the object of an unrelenting bounty hunt after stealing a mysterious orb coveted by Ronan, a powerful villain with ambitions that threaten the entire universe. To evade the ever-persistent Ronan, Quill is forced into an uneasy truce with a quartet of disparate misfits—Rocket, a gun-toting raccoon, Groot, a tree-like humanoid, the deadly and enigmatic Gamora and the revenge-driven Drax the Destroyer. But when Quill discovers the true power of the orb and the menace it poses to the cosmos, he must do his best to rally his ragtag rivals for a last, desperate stand—with the galaxy's fate in the balance.

[CK] interviews me!
Also: I changed my last name to Morrisson (explanation here for anyone bored enough to care). The _g is no more, so my name on CK's page isn't a typo. He is I and I am him.

Had a great time being interviewed by Bill Lytton for PetaPixel.
"I first heard of Jim Mortram and his project ‘Small Town Inertia’ in the ‘Ones to Watch’ section of the British Journal of Photography. At first, I was happy that someone from my homeland, Norfolk, was making an impact in the photographic world. But of all projects I’d seen in BJP, Small Town Inertia was the only that gripped me.
Jim is a documentary photographer in the rural town of Dereham, Norfolk in the UK. The project portrays the lives of those “living on the fringe of society”, often focussing on the emotional, mental and physical hardships of those involved. The images, accompanied by text and quotations, make up this “long-form documentary and environmental portraiture series” with captivating brutal honesty.
