I heard this quote and wanted to something with it. It's by J. Robert Oppenheimer, the man who created the atom bomb...

The photos are taken at an abandoned fur farm near where I live in Finland and I made the sound especially for this video...

I should really be working on my final project for the university but I needed to take a brake for a while and do something else... =)

"We knew the world would not be the same. A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent. I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita. Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says, "Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds." I suppose we all thought that one way or another."

  • linkin park!!!

  • Very cool, I have a similar idea, which i'll post if I ever get the time to do it. Great quote, eerily apocalyptic, even people didn't know the story behind I think it would still inspire that same sense of dread. I think the music and pictures you added were a great reflection of this feeling too.

  • As an india I am feeling glad and proud that Bhagavad Geeta is part of our culture.. and also feeling sad that we our own peaople are not understanding value of it..salute sir..and thank god and my dada who showed me this path where i can understand and implement Geeta in my life..

  • cool vid man

  • I also should be working on my thesis but here I am watching Youtube. After this I shall fire up the word procssor. To tell you the truth the vid didn't really inspire me but I suppose all work and no play makes me a dull boy. Godspeed with your final thesis! Wish me luck on mine!
