Aphex Twin / Chris Cunningham - Flex (good quality)

[Kennynynyny]

he always keep the concept in his clip, the "twin" concept

[DeansterTheSnow]

One of my goals in life: to have sex like this.

[ortaklai]

i fuckin love this !

[TheBlackRegent73]

I remember seeing the complete version at the 'Apocalypse' exhibition. Does anybody know if there has ever been or ever will be a release of the full version?

[PantherFox]

I see it almost as a reference to religion. When she drew blood the light looked at them and cast them down. I'm not religious but it does bring it to mind

[sacredgeometry]

@PantherFox strange i thought it was more likely to be about child birth.

[sylar977]

What the fuck was that.

[KomusoTV]

from my interpretation i see this as cunningham demonstrating the act of sex as on par with or the same as the creation of the universe. whether that be the creation of life through sex or simply the act of sex (or the combining of flesh) as something that is as primordial and mysterious as the creation of the universe around us. in our society today sex has become mundane whereas this elevates sex back to the supramundane

[jreqthek9]

A quick Google Videos search turns up a 12-minute version of the full-length video on a Russian video site. Other than that, not much else is available except this intro. Creepy even by short film standards.

[leviathancom]

Billy Herrington vs Van Darkholme

[justplayfm]

This video was just added to a music playlist at JustPlay.fm

[billyhammet]

it looks like their in water or something.

[HalloJochen]

I saw the full version on Roskilde, live by Chris Cunningham. Damn it is perfection. After this clip there is a long fight scene between those two with heavy dnb-music from Aphex Twin... i just wanna go back in time to that show.

[MrSmith623]

where is the fight scene

[misterbobbins]

Check out Lynne Ramsay's film 'Kill the Day' clip on Youtube. Influenced Flex?

[Mclulee]

Saw Chris Cunningham's work at the Roundhouse on thursday, amazing stuff. A true master.

[mec567]

For a full version of flex, you have to search hard, I found it, PM me for the link.

[joe9090joe]

@mec567 hey can u send me a link? the full version is so much better! :)

[MonkeyMajic01]

@mec567

hello... could you provide me the link for the full version.

many thanks

[lukanova]

this is not full complete version

[moonwalker915]

@lukanova yea the complete is to ummmmmmm much for utube

[Photonzos]

i waited for something to happen...

[enjoiyourlunch]

mmmmmmokay

[MsMasochrist]

This is a recreation of my sex life. :D 

<3 Chris Cunningham

[PeiinNagato]

Where can I find the full version

online

with the part where they have sex

[saivismo]

what innapropiated material?

its simple art

theres more shit in internet that should be innapropiated , not work of real artist

[Resky89]

beautiful visual and sound...

[franzscissorhands]

Does anyone know how are those reddish blurs in the frame achieved? Like those that appear between 0:56 and 0:58?

I'd very much appreciate some guidance here...

[dotzvbjnp]

@franzscissorhands I don't know for sure but but they look like an anamorpic lens flares. They can be done digitally these days rather than spending huge amounts on anamorphic lenses. search youtube for it, there's tutorials.

[Gingey1SmallBrother]

My head is now fucked

Tahnks Chris

[hewie8881]

Grande.

[Adsmunk]

well now THERE's a story with a happy ending.

[JBTheMovies]

the most incredible thing about cunningham is that with videos like these, he shows us what synesthesia is like. this is probably due to the fact that he's working with aphex twin all the time. i'm sure aphex looks at a video in progress and says to chris, "yeah that's pretty much what that sound looks like to me."

[greeeeeeeeeeeetg]

Chris Cunningham, the best videoclip creator in the entire world

[ronny0ragtroll]

this is about the best video art ever !!!!!!

[kidzurdo]

Este video lo tengo en el DVD director series. Tambien se apreció en el Reinvention tour de Madonna 2004, mientras ella canta Frozen tomando un sentido algo sado-romantico si se pudiera usar ese termino.

[Werronnn]

I have absolutely no idea what the hell was this supposed to be about, but it is AWESOME. I can watch this all over again

[MorpheusEmilio]

@Werronnn It's about the creation of mankind (as far as I know).

[Mateusrcp]

trash

[MorpheusEmilio]

@Mateusrcp Screw you, you don't know what digital art is.

[aizik2005]

i did not understand it

[MorpheusEmilio]

@aizik2005 It wasn't made to be understood, it was made to not be understood.

[aizik2005]

@MorpheusEmilio

too ideal for this world? 

[MorpheusEmilio]

@aizik2005 I don't think so...

[CarlosGrrrrrrr]

Do you reckon these guys take a lot of Ketamine,or what?

Looking at this,and 'Rubber Johnny',I'd have to say so!

[Jay41]

THIS IS AMAZING!!!!!Giving me sooo much inspiration for my work!

[TheDVNO]

Richard D James And Chris Cunningham are G.E.N.I.U.S.!!!

[bluerat77]

Ho visto questo video per la prima volta alla Biennale di Venezia nel 2001..uno dei pochi lavori veramente interessanti per il quale mi è venuto in mente il termine Arte(come la intendo io perlomeno...)Ricordo che c'erano famigliole che scappavano terrorizzate nel vederlo...eheheh XD

[bathinthefountain]

awesome

[MADPUSSVIDEOS]

It's awesome!

Genius!

[vonspre]

Sooooo fUCKIN Good I could puke...

[UEBELRIECHEND]

GREAT

[pinksharpiexxx]

Chris Cunningham is beyond amazing. I love his work!

[LisaNatashaful]

Love this!! Brilliant!!

[Flagfoot]

This video is powerful-- I think of it as the violence in sex, the closeness and elasticity is overwhelming. I mean, it's not just about the violence in sex etc. etc., but that is what it is touching. It's like a wonderful depiction of a push-pull relationship in the closest quarters.

[ROBOFRANCE2029]

ok, now go watch windowlicker...

[Flagfoot]

YES

[ruffino82]

yes, I agree that's exactly it, but after the couple fade away, what does the smoke and lighting mean towards the end?

[MendicantBias69]

chris cunningham is visual genius...

[cjlpowerdude999]

I don't get this can someone try to explain it please

[pathyto23]

sorry, nobody can. this just isn´t for your eyes

[joaojhonj]

É uma merda ficar vendo bunda de macho.

Ô porcaria.

[josemlopes]

lol

[motowoman]

Magnífico!!!

[frankp7400]

This is my interpretation of the video: The man and the woman is Adam and Eve and they are wrestling about. Adam gets hurt, God sees this and Adam pretends to make love to Eve. God is is not convinced and he vanishes them both from heaven. :P

Is this the whole video? Or is this a short version?

[josemlopes]

I also have that theory

[Carminesilano]

is this art? music? im really confused, i think i missed the boat.

[NimbusFilms]

1:54 is the most awesome part of this video.

[AdamEnigma]

Adam and eve + sex + conception?

Awesome.

[phkontrol]

mate, I was there too - this was probably the best audio/visual experience I have EVER had. and I thought plaid's work the year before would be hard to beat!

[frrrantastico]

i think it is very guth deep indide!

[diegolr87]

Good as hell

[Blobitos]

Superbe

[RusRapChannel]

Porn, lmao xD

[Karlfalcon]

Grow up and get over it.

[RusRapChannel]

Sir yes sir !

[oliverwaker456]

wat.

[noayesberno]

Magnifique!

[mediawardotcom]

that's a part of flex that's not in this excerpt unfortunately. the full thing runs for 17 minute loop and it's such a shame it has never been officially released on dvd in it's entirety.

[matthew360x]

Chris is fucking amazing 0_o

[birdsoffrance]

Beautiful video!

[vonspre]

this century need its own Bacon,Kafka,Poe...and we have Cunningham...that's all.

[ronny0ragtroll]

[princeofunivers]

[ittybitty000]

[pumperpulga]

aphex is a master and chris

[blueturtles77]

terrible? so what's brilliant for you?

[QuakerX]

2:19

[AugZF]

۞GuD!

[mrfracas]

I seem to remember seeing this in Basingstoke; there is a section missing. I recall because there is a close up of the man pulling back his foreskin, and they both fought again. Was this omitted because of offense to YouTube and/or its viewers; or is this how it came?

The version on the Director's Series DVD is an excerpt that is approx 1 min long. How did you obtain this?

[cellebln]

Aphex Twin + Chris Cunningham = perfect match

*****

[jackfrequenza]

they know....

[StackCityEntOfficial]

can i get it too?

[pedromonteverde]

The best part and most amazing is when appears that light sound, it's from other planet. They are the art Gods, Richard and Chris

[happyendy]

there is a full lenght Flex , and it is a kind of horror ;) to derastic for youtube

[DDRpwnerer]

Any idea where we might be able to find it?

[strikezone6498]

thanks for uploading this, does the DVD have the full length Flex?

[ruffino82]

unfortunately it does not.

[ilvoleencore]

@happyendy the full lenght Flex video is hard to get. Have an idea how to? I saw it once at Elektra festival in Montreal a few years ago, did research to buy a dvd but ..

Its controversial but necessary.

[sleipnir73]

@happyendy

i saw the full version in venice a few years back. have been looking for it for quite some time. horror indeed. it's about relationships, i think...the worst horror of them all;)

[theghostsofgiants]

@happyendy The full film is 17 minutes long. I'd love to be able to track down a full copy.

[jparsonsscott]

@happyendy fucking upload that shit bro!

[gilmonteverdemusic]

this is one of the most brillian videos i ever seen. The other good ones are also from Cunningham of course.

[supertoast3r]

This reminds me of Silent Hill video game XD

All of the fast movements and the atmospheric music :D

Awesome!!

[Nuclearshell]

This is in fact an allegoria of orgasm; where the brief and glowy light represents the absolute climax.

[fragfoo]

If you believe that then the smoke in the end is the post orgasmic cigarrette :x

[orangejuicedisco]

does anyone know where i can find the original?

[olkabe]

klasyk! cudowny! dzieki za upload!

[jenniferzer0]

I like this version much better than the original edit with the revolting cock.

[EricakaJaceII]

Holy hell, 3:10-3:17 is TERRIFYING with the volume absolutely up.

And yet, nothing on screen happens! xD

[AskewdProductions]

damn brutal sex much?

[Alavistaven2012]

Someone should help her.

jk lol

[baneat]

Pretty cool

[HamishBRT]

wow that was cool

[semacomer]

ah oh. Uwielbiam tę realizację. Kapitalne zdjęcia! DO czego zawsze ogromną wagę przywiązuje Chris, ale oczywiście montaż i cała reszta równie fenomenalna.

[retina555]

Widziałes pełną wersje jest w tym coś tak chorego druga strona człowieka ta zwierzeca o której nikt nie mówi

[semacomer]

całej nie widziałem.. ale racja, też miałem wrażenie, że to opowiada o zwierzęcej naturze, czy biologicznych fundamentach i prawach nami rządzących.. walka, zmaganie etc etc, światło genialnie opisuje ciało w tym filmie. Gdzie jest cała?

[retina555]

zgodze sie w 100 %, a całosc widziałem kiedys w kiepskiej wersji z kina, szukałem całosci i nie ma ani na Myspacie ani Tubie :(

[semacomer]

nawet na DVD cunninghama nie ma! czyli ściema jakaś :) bo śladu po tym żadnego

[agustusgaloof]

What Album is this on?!?

[embfx3]

It's not on any album, it's just a work he did for Cunningham specifically for this piece.

[stephen0816]

Excellent!
