 Chris Cunningham Review
Chris plays guitar in many styles: acoustic picking, chord strumming and soaring electric leads.
Another song combining fine vocals, harmonies, and a cello is "Unbelievable Candy." One of the most interesting and captivating songs is the unlisted, untitled track 9.
If there is one song on the CD which stands out it's the ballad "Stay." Sounding alternately like Chris Issak and Warren Zevon, Chris tells an age old story of longing over a simple and melodic, repeated riff on classical guitar that sticks in your mind all day.

Cunningham's collection is very short despite the wealth of interviews, and Jonze's is missing several wonderful music videos.
And while the eerie elegance of Madonna's "Frozen" arose from a chaotic production, the signature work in this collection is clearly Bj& "All Is Full of Love," a masterfully simple yet breathtaking vision of intimacy involving advanced robotics and seamless CGI composites.
And Michel Gondry (director of the wonderful "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" and "Human Nature") rounds off the collection.

Chris is currently locked away concentrating on producing a DVD title consisting of a collection of original works in both sound and picture, along with the odd musical collaboration with the likes of old favourites Aphex Twin and Squarepusher with an intended release of end of 2003 beginning 2004.
In 1999, Chris set about undertaking what has become one of the most memorable music videos created, Bjork's, "All Is Full Of Love." Some two years after its release, this is still one of the most sort after videos for music, film, art events and galleries around the world.
Not only did this video change the face of music videos, it catapulted his name into the public.

When Aphex Twin released Drukqs in 2001, Cunningham created a short introductory video using the first 30 seconds of James' track Afx237 V7.
MTV in the US refused to air the video, so it was released on VHS.
Several years later Cunningham has expanded the 30 seconds into a short, 6 minute film, featuring a slightly remixed version of Afx237 V7 created by Cunningham himself.

Rubber Johnny, Chris Cunningham's new short film is six minutes and ten seconds of fucked up terror that fuses the music of Aphex Twin with his own unique visual style (see our review here).
Chris himself plays the part of Johnny and the film itself became a kind of side project that evolved out of a 30 second promo for Aphex Twin's Druqks and took several years to complete for both the shooting and the editing.

While he provides these (mostly obscure) songs with images, there is a coldness and detachment from the subjects that I found very intriguing.
