Nikola Tesla The Genius Who Lit the World
Posted by Ştefan Alexandrescu on 05/07/2011
Even since I have studied physics in highschool, I have abeen a longstanding admirerer of Nicola Tesla, one of the greatest inventors which ever lived. Father of the alternative current, he competed with the most brilliant minds of his time to bring progress to mankind.
What absolutely amazes me is Tesla’s initiative to provide free wireless electricity. The tower he built with this purpose has been destroyed in order to prevent USA’s enemies to use it in strategical purposes. I will never stop wondering what would have been if he would have had the chance to finish his project. The wold we live in would have been totally different.
I learned a lot of new things from this documentary, an insightful perspective into the past and a proof that the greatest human inventions are almost always used first in military purposes. I also imagine that for those of you having more technical inclinations, you will find delight in the scenes where from the museum.
Although it is clear the filmmakers did not have a lot of resources, the structure and the story of the documentary is enough captivating and relevant in content to make it above average. A good lesson in doing much with little resources.
