For the 75th remembrance, the Imperial War Museum in London commissioned a digital artwork. “I Saw The World End,” created by Es Devlin and Machiko Weston, is a haunting “collective reading” of selected British, American, and Japanese sources reflecting on the development and use of the atomic bomb.

Here’s a reflective mash-up of “White Cliffs of Dover” & “Over the Rainbow” we made about VE Day and where we’re at 80 years on. Dedicated to Great Grandad (DFC as an RAF pilot, 619 Squadron, Lancasters) - his favourite saying was "the price of freedom is eternal vigilance."

Early 2024, Bluesky is launching federation. Because user profile links will likely change, I switched to my already-registered DebbieOhi.com domain so I can keep my Bluesky link evergreen.

For those who want to do the same, I've posted about how I changed my user handle to a custom domain.
