timelapse

Fungi are amongst the coolest organism to grace the planet, so good thing it's Friday, the one day of the week that starts with the same letter as fungus. That's the same kind of logic that keeps me from totally losing it, so lettuce watch this series of timelapse GIFs of mushrooms.

Artist Laurin Döpfner made this timelapse video with a belt sander and about 650 photos of each of the following objects being sanded at half a millimeter intervals. The results are truly mindwarping and thanks to the power of the GIF and editing the objects look like they are almost simultaneously being destroyed and built.
