Big fan of Cunningham's work, and would love to see information about it from across the subforums centralized here. I have several interviews scoured from the web over the years that I will post here shortly.

Another Man magazine's latest issue (A/W 2014) has a new interview and notes that a new work is "on the brink of release." Their website includes this excellent playlist of selections by Cunningham.

Also, to tie in with the recent Star Wars teaser, here's Cunningham's visual remix of Empire Strikes Back:

Less than a week! I can't listen to this track enough! I wake up in the middle of the night with it in my head. I love Aphex! I'm so excited. I've checked this god-4-saken website everyday for fucking YEARS with NO news and we're so close! Holy Shit! Oh my god! Anybody else feel like this everyday? Can't wait to hear that METZ track in HD glory! My speakers and headphones have no idea what they are about to be put through! Fanboy I am! BRING IT ALREADY!

That site (which was great) hasn't been updated in over a year, as far as I can tell?

no update for over a year though, despite the Jaqapparattus thing being fairly recent...

Yeah, that's true - despite promised updates, they still haven't put up anything... the nerve! *ducks*

I like how in every interview he is working on something that no one in the public ever sees. Nuromancer, spectral musicains. His music he produces. The warpaint documentary from last year. Now software development. Most likley a syro video sitting on his shelf. :D

He has a sideline in flogging fake Ben Sherman's down Surrey Street market.

"They're about guns, lasers, robots with laser guns in space. Monsters from the future. Explosions. Sylvester Stallone doing a backflip on top of a spike while Robocop carries a ghost up a mountain. Bombs and swords and that... IDM is awesome."

wait a sec guys, he made a warpaint music video (in my opinion the only bad thing he ever made) than the Jaqapparatus for a CAR COMPANY and some live shows in the past 2-3 years.

He could also be some consultant for movie/commercial companies and he sure owns some equipment to borrow.

here you have his income.

He seems to have moved into the same strange circles as Mira Calix, having convinced higher ups to "commission" their work. Must be easier in EU with all the grants, govt funded artwork, etc.

I swear this guy doesn't age.

 

Pretty cool how he's into Colin Stetson though. I got into his stuff through Justin Vernon/Bon Iver, and what I've heard of his solo material is really good.

Uses the same Cien moisturiser as Bryan Singer and Pharrell. Night cream and day cream.

Financially, I think Grace Jones gave him a lot of money when he photoshopped her naked body into different shapes.

The Director's Label DVD is a great collection of his work (That whole series is awesome) but it doesn't have anything he's done since before the video for The Horror's and Rubber Johnny... it's also missing a couple of his stuff from earlier like the video he did for the Auteurs and "Flex" in it's entirety.
