Codariocalyx motorius moves so fast it is visible to the naked eye. This video shows the plant in every two seconds time-lapse as if it is dancing. Scientists have observed that the plant responds to sound but not to touch, hence the nickname dancing plant, and for its moves also knows as telegraph plant and semaphore plant, but they do it to receive the light better, well, some theories suggest that they move like that to scare away predators. Anyway, what a beauty! 🌿💚 ⠀ ⠀ Video by OddScience on YouTube ⠀ ⠀ #codariocalyxmotorius #plantsoneARTh #plantsinart #plants #art #earth (en Planet Earth) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2CzHxWl4-o/?igshid=1r936n3nduzky

‘The Plant Collection’ (Artist Book) Inge Meijer, 2019. ⠀ ⠀ One of those projects where I say, wow, I would have liked to do it! 🌿🖼️🏛️ Beautiful work! ⠀ ⠀ The Plant Collection is an art research made by artist Inge Meijer, as she points out: “on the vanished – and forgotten – plant life in the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam. From 1945 to 1983. During the 38 years that plants were part of the museum’s policy, you could certainly speak of a ‘collection’. The plant collection included 39 different species. After every exhibition, the plants would be taken away and moved to a new spot. Plants were donated to the museum and a specific person was employed to take care of the collection. The major part of the research was based on documents and photographs of exhibitions found in various archives.” ⠀ ⠀ Isn't it a fantastic job to be the caretaker of a museum's plant collection? Wow! ⠀ ⠀ Info and images via ingemeijer.nl @i.n.g.e.m.e.i.j.e.r and  @perimeterbooks ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ #ingemeijer #stedelijkmuseum #PlantsinMuseums #plantsoneARTh #plantsinart #plants #art #earth (en Planet Earth) https://www.instagram.com/p/B01BFWYF2PZ/?igshid=1uwqptvez0u4n

'Ode to a Flower' words of Richard Feynman (1981-1982) animated by Fraser Davidson. (2012) ⠀ ⠀ Are we limiting the ways in which we can see things by the labels we put on ourselves and by society? Let's see beyond and without limits! Get inspired by the words of Nobel-winning physicist Richard Feynman (1918–1988): ⠀ ⠀ Beauty of a Flower ⠀ "I have a friend who’s an artist and has sometimes taken a view which I don’t agree with very well. He’ll hold up a flower and say “look how beautiful it is,” and I’ll agree. Then he says “I as an artist can see how beautiful this is but you as a scientist take this all apart and it becomes a dull thing,” and I think that he’s kind of nutty. First of all, the beauty that he sees is available to other people and to me too, I believe… ⠀ I can appreciate the beauty of a flower. At the same time, I see much more about the flower than he sees. I could imagine the cells in there, the complicated actions inside, which also have a beauty. I mean it’s not just beauty at this dimension, at one centimeter; there’s also beauty at smaller dimensions, the inner structure, also the processes. The fact that the colors in the flower evolved in order to attract insects to pollinate it is interesting; it means that insects can see the color. It adds a question: does this aesthetic sense also exist in the lower forms? Why is it aesthetic? All kinds of interesting questions which the science knowledge only adds to the excitement, the mystery and the awe of a flower. It only adds. I don’t understand how it subtracts." ⠀ ⠀ Animated excerpt from the BBC Interview to Richard Feynman for Horizon 'The Pleasure of Finding Things Out.' [The beauty of a flower ]. by Fraser Davidson via @cubstudio's Vimeo. ⠀ ⠀ #richardfeynman #flowers #plantsoneARTh #plantsinart #art #plants #earth (en Planet Earth) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0CASDOgLYb/?igshid=24et1royu8sp

Here 6 of the 647 specimens of Henry David Thoreau's Herbarium digitalized by Harvard University Herbaria under public domain that we all can enjoy here: shorturl.at/emxCH ⠀ ⠀ Description by HUH: //Henry David Thoreau may be best known as a writer, but he was also a botanist who collected specimens of New England plants. In 1842 he started to identify the plants noted in his journal with Latin names. The publication in 1848 of the "Manual of botany of the Northern United States" by Harvard professor Asa Gray informed Thoreau's knowledge of botany. His earliest specimens were collected in 1850 and his herbarium became his reference guide to determine the identity of plants found in Concord and other New England localities. As the years passed his collection grew to about 900 specimens. ⠀ Only about half of the specimens include the location where the specimen was collected, but most include a Latin plant name, usually written in pencil in a casual manner.  This collection of 647 sheets was given by Thoreau to the Boston Society of Natural History. Some years later the Society gave the herbarium to the Concord Free Public Library. In 1959 the Library donated Thoreau's Herbarium of historically significant specimens to Harvard's Gray Herbarium. The remainder of the collection is deposited in the New England Botanical Club Herbarium. All of the specimens are curated by the Harvard University Herbaria in Cambridge, Massachusetts.// ⠀ ⠀ #henrydavidthoreau #herbarium #botanist #plantsoneARTh #plantsinart #plants #art #earth (en Planet Earth) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bz0m9PTFzYU/?igshid=84oizll054jc

‘The Drooping Plant’ David Hockney, 1986 Home made print. ⠀ 🎂HBD David  Hockney! One of the favorites to POE, to me! Happy that he is still creating and being a wonderful mind in all the senses to this planet. ⠀ ⠀ In love with everything he does but recently his investigation on color photocopy in the 80s really got me. So, ARCHEUS / POST-MODERN said it best: ⠀ “David Hockney's investigation into the newly invented technology of colour photocopying in 1986, which resulted in the series Home Made Prints, typifies the artist's restless drive and skill in invention over 6 decades. Hockney, fascinated by the new devices, deconstructed the multi-colour printing capability of these office "cameras", and created a series of works, each made by the artist himself with no proofs. Puzzled by the flatness of colour photocopies generated by the early xerox machines, he set out to see if they could be improved upon and soon realised that the colours sharpened if printed one coloured layer at a time. He demonstrated that prints made from these machines with care, attention and an enquiring skill are vastly superior to their products when used as intended, i.e. to make a coloured copy in one single pass.  This demonstration, and this typical mode of enquiry, defines completely what makes Hockney one of the greatest artists working today.” via www.archeus.co.uk ⠀ ⠀ #davidhockney #plantsoneARTh#plantsinart #plants #art #earth (en Planet Earth) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzspHVtliAC/?igshid=1cc2a802hx3oi
