"1945-1998" Nuclear Detonation World Map & Animated Timeline
|
|||||||||
 Japanese
artist Isao Hashimmoto created this video that shows all of the world's nuclear detonations from 1945 to 1998.
"This piece of work is a bird's eye view of the history by scaling down a month length of time into one second...
The blinking light, sound and the numbers on the world map show when, where and how many experiments each country
have conducted." At 1 second/month, things are slow-moving at first, then by 1955 the fireworks really get going.
The first blip is in the Nevada desert at the
Trinity test site in July of 1945. The USSR entered the nuclear club in May 1949, followed by the UK in August
1952. By the end, 7 countries were players, but since then N. Korea joined. Soon, thanks to moronic politicians,
Iran will also have detonated a nuke.Should you have any query regarding this artwork, please contact e-mail address below: hashi123ping@amy.hi-ho.nepong.jp |
