יאָדער יקספּלאָוזשאַנז פון 1945 [ טימעלאַפּסע ]

nuclearesEl artista japones Isao Hashimoto es el creador de este interesante timelapse en el que, sobre un mapa terrestre, podemos ver en forma visual y sonora el conjunto de pruebas nucleares llevadas a cabo por los diferentes países en nuestro planeta, entre los años 1945 און 1998.

Cada país usa un color y un tipo de sonido asociado para sus propias pruebas, formando el conjunto una obra audiovisual de la mano de este artista que transforma cada mes en un segundo de animación en el timelapse.

La obra es atractiva visualmente, aportando un interesante dramatismo con los efectos sonoros. דער בלויז “אָבער” de esta obra es la esencia de lo que describe: nuestra propia capacidad de destrucción.

This piece of work is a bird’s eye view of the history by scaling down a month length of time into one second. No letter is used for equal messaging to all viewers without language barrier. The blinking light, sound and the numbers on the world map show when, where and how many experiments each country have conducted. I created this work for the means of an interface to the people who are yet to know of the extremely grave, but present problem of the world.

Japanese artist Isao Hashimoto has created a beautiful, undeniably scary time-lapse map of the 2053 nuclear explosions which have taken place between 1945 און 1998, beginning with the Manhattan Project’sTrinitytest near Los Alamos and concluding with Pakistan’s nuclear tests in May of 1998. This leaves out North Korea’s two alleged nuclear tests in this past decade (the legitimacy of both of which is not 100% clear).

Each nation gets a blip and a flashing dot on the map whenever they detonate a nuclear weapon, with a running tally kept on the top and bottom bars of the screen. Hashimoto, who began the project in 2003, says that he created it with the goal of showingthe fear and folly of nuclear weapons.It starts really slow — if you want to see real action, skip ahead to 1962 or so — but the buildup becomes overwhelming.
