DODDER time lapse. This parasitic plant needs to hunt its prey to survive, and follows chemical scents to select the best host. Intentionality is quite evident at this time scale. https://lnkd.in/dKDBVed View in LinkedIn

FLOWERS opening time lapse. Having many moving parts of complex geometry that are designed both to origami into a tidy minimal shape, and to expand maximally to attract the world can be best appreciated at this speed. https://youtu.be/m6Uw2DJ9Md8 View in LinkedIn

MONARCH from caterpillar to butterfly, time lapse. Metamorphosis on a grand scale where a caterpillar enters pupation and autodigests itself, only to emerge completely redesigned. https://youtu.be/ocWgSgMGxOc View in LinkedIn

FLATFISH eye migration time lapse. Another metamorphosis event where the fish is born vertically oriented, and gradually adopts the unusual horizontal orientation, and to accomplish this, many organs and structures must be reconfigured, most alarmingly, the eyes must be positioned on top of the new flat head, which was once its side. https://lnkd.in/dBUnSKn View in LinkedIn
