Rubber Johnny (Chris Cunningham, Aphex Twin) |
|
I just caught this on List Universe under 10 More Bizarre
Videos. I vaguely remember this back when it came out in 2005 and from
what I remember, it was as freaky then as it's freaky now. The video
itself is great, but I never could stand the sound of Aphex Twin. That
aside however, I recommend this to anyone wishing to look into the mind
of the bizarre. Here's some details about the actual clip entitled,
Rubber Johnny:
Rubber Johnny is a 6
minute experimental short film and music video directed by Chris
Cunningham in 2005, using music composed by Aphex Twin.
The concept
for Rubber Johnny came from Cunningham imagining a raver morphing as he
danced. The idea evolved to the present film, in which Johnny (played
by Cunningham) is an isolated mutant child with a huge overgrown
cranium, strapped into a wheelchair and locked in a basement. Capable
of morphing his body, he spends his life trying to amuse himself and
his dog, a terrified chihuahua.
