Class blog for "The Unstable Nucleus" at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago

     I recently stubbled upon this interesting film called "Radio Bikini". It provides an account of the events that transpired on the Bikini Islands during nuclear bomb tests. Much of the film is taken from the documentation done by the government. Footage focuses on the lives of soldiers, camera men, and locals, their individual accounts are also provided.
I found that it put a face to the location, and made it clear that peoples' lives will have forever been changed by the events that transpired May 20, 1956.
