“1945–1998″ by Isao Hashimoto

This video is a great exam­ple of how the num­bers alone don’t do the sub­ject jus­tice. After a poignant start in 1945, with the first test in New Mex­ico and the sub­se­quent war deploy­ments in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the time accel­er­ated video reveals the extent of nuclear test­ing until 1998. It goes par­tic­u­larly men­tal around 1962 at the time of the Cuban mis­sile crisis.
