Inspired by the film Oppenheimer, artist Thomas Blanchard created “Trinity,” a short film imagining a nuclear explosion with macro-scale fluid motion. There’s clever video editing and compositing in this video, but no CGI. Instead, Blanchard filmed fire, sparklers, alcohol inks, pigments and more up close and in stunning detail. As always, his work is a reminder of the amazing possibilities of analog-based art. (Video and image credit: T. Blanchard)
