Cunningham

Hello dear group.

Reading an interview with video maker Chris Cunningham I found the following short statement:

When you were a boy, you used to lay your head next to your dad's speakers with your eyes closed, picturing images to sound. What were you listening to?
Debussy. The thing that had the most influence on me, probably more than any film was an album, [by] Isao Tomita [1970's Japanese electronic musician] and he did analogue electronic renditions of classical music. He did an album called Snowflakes Are Dancing of Debussy's piano tone poems and when I was six or seven I used to listen that. It used to make me cry. It was absolutely the most amazing thing I had ever heard.

Wow! As a fan of Cunningham's videos for Aphex Twin, Squarepusher
and Bjork it's very interesting to see the link with Tomita!

Thanks Nestor,

John.
