In regard of international Hiroshima Day, which is next Saturday, August 6th, I have compiled this 5-minute music-video sequence. You will see no views of Hiroshima itself here, nor a human face, not one. Only the bomb. The bomb in all its forms, uranium, plutonium, hydrogen, the neutron bomb. Ground detonations, sea detonations, detonations in the sky. The last word in funeral fireworks. You will hear the "Schoolchildren's Prayer for Peace," which is a Japanese piece sung by actual schoolchildren for the soundtrack of the 1954 movie, "Gojira", a film which presented the atomic horror as an all-slaughtering beast of incredible proportions. As a prelude to the children's prayer, I have used "Theme For a Ruined City", drawn from the same film score. It allows the tone to be set before the children begin, and transitions easily into the next, as though wanting to be linked.
