"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 has 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."
"Do you care, do you care Ronald Reagan?
Overkilling not our style, we want peace"
A song by the group Huarere, performed at a rally during the Nuclear Free and Independent Pacific conference in Vanuatu, 1983. From the program "A Nuclear Free and Independent Pacific"
