About
The Leafy Lapse project started in Februrary 2023 and has been running ever since. The plants receive light from an LED planter for 18 hours every day, and a photo is taken every 5 minutes using a GoPro. Every 120 photos are then combined into a 30fps video and uploaded to the archive.
To see how the plants evolve over longer periods of time, additional timescales are created from these videos:
- 8x Speed: Every four videos are combined and sped up by 8x.
- 64x Speed: Every four 8x videos are combined and sped up again by 8x. These videos are also uploaded to YouTube.
- 256x Speed: The fastest speedup available, with every second of a 256x video spanning about one month. Additionally, motion blur is applied by combining 512 original photos together for each frame of the video.
