So why is this cartoon, featuring a living sponge, accompanied by his friend Patrick, the pink starfish, a venal crab and a nasty octopus, more than dubious? It undoubtedly helps to erase the memory of this atoll as it was before the arrival of the Americans, but above all, to conceal the violence that took place there. In fact, it is so polluted that the inhabitants can no longer return to live on their atoll. Here, the lands of the Bikinians have been taken, destroyed, polluted. Ships and other structures brought by the Americans were sunk and are still in the ocean today.Ĭolonisation, as we all know, is a time of immense violence and injustice. 4 These contributed to the pollution, damage and even destruction of part of the landmass and the seabed.
67 nuclear tests were conducted on Bikini, 'the equivalent of 1.6 bombs the size of those dropped on Hiroshima, every day for 12 years'. The islanders were simply relocated to Rongelap Atoll, where there were already people. 3 But then, Bikini Bottom? Is it because SpongeBob lives in the lagoon of the atoll that was used for nuclear testing?īikini made of printed cotton canvas, 1946, Musée des Arts Décoratifs, Paris, exhibited during the exhibition Harper'Bazaar, Premier Magazine de Mode (from Februto January 3, 2021) at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs, Paris © Garance Nyssenīefore the Americans decided to take up residence on Bikini Atoll (and Enewetak) to conduct their nuclear experiments, the area was obviously inhabited. Oh yes, you don't think about that at all when you buy a bikini! It's more an advertising image that comes to mind, that of a model, always white, tall and with a very skinny body. Barker, it may also be a reference to the fission of the atom, which produces nuclear energy.
Could this be a form of homage? Or did Réard want his invention to be just as explosive as this nuclear test? For Holly M. A few days before the launch of what was to become a fashion hit, a nuclear explosion took place on Bikini, as part of the American Cold War tests (we've already touched on this subject by discussing the Enewetak Atoll here, and had a quick look at the history of these tests here). Bikini (Pikinni) comes from the Marshallese term pikinni, which refers to the surface of the coconut. Réard called his swimming costume a "bikini", after the atoll of the same name in the Marshall Islands of Micronesia. Well, that brings us closer to our subject. Yes, that two-piece swimming costume, which shows the belly and the navel, invented by the Frenchman Louis Réard in the 1940s. In the background, you can see the different architectures and characters of Bikini Bottom As part of the rule I must give the link to his page so here it is : The map was made with world edit, mcedit, worldpainter and singleplayer commands.Image for a game based on the SpongeBob SquarePants cartoon © Nickelodeon There is heaps to explore!
