[starttext] Today I propose a wonderful music video of Pearl Jam: Do teh evolution.
on youtube, I also found the video with subtitles in Italian and for those who wish to report the information page of wikipedia:
The video begins with the evolution of life, from the smallest cell, the extinction of the dinosaurs and the kingdom Human sapiens. The video then slows down to tell the story of man, starting with primitive man, the violent nature and the changes over the centuries. Some scenes include the Knights as they prepare for a crusade, a ritual dance of the Ku Klux Klan (the dance is repeated with other groups in the video), a rally of Nazi troops (with the symbols of "S" rune and a swastika), carnage on a battlefield of World War I (apparently a tribute to Peace on Earth, an animated anti-war MGM, directed by Hugh Harman), an apparent rape of a woman and a bombing in Vietnam to an American plane, whose pilot, toltosi mask, skeleton, which turns out to be a wild ride. There are also other issues such as whaling, the vivisection, pollution, genetic alterations and (implicitly) even the Internet. The video ends in what is believed to be a futuristic scenario of self-destruction of the human race, including a bombing carpet by a futuristic aircraft, computers, hijacking the minds of men, and then a nuclear explosion that leaves cities in ruins.
The music of the song was written by Stone Gossard, Eddie Vedder and the text.
