Apocalypse


I love the sense of atmosphere in this piece. There is something 'end of the world' about it. So many people both fear and are intriqued by the notion of life as we know it ending. Maybe they're just bored of being bored. You should read In Pursuit of the Millenium. A great book by Norman Cohen. It talks about the period around 900 AD to about 1200 AD. Fascinating stuff.
