Verstörend schöne Fotos einer kalt domestizierten Umwelt : Rainer Zerback

Rainer Zerbacks Bildband “Metamorphosis” zeigt die Schwäbische Alb als künstlich geformte Landschaft – ästhetisch, kalt und melancholisch. So sichtbar war unser Eingriff in die Natur selten. Von Janek Wiechers

Die Umwelt, wie wir sie kennen, hat mit ursprünglicher Natur kaum noch etwas zu tun. Die Landschaft um uns herum ist ein Kunstprodukt, das der Mensch seit Jahrtausenden verändert. Land- und Forstwirtschaft, Siedlungen, Straßen und Industrie hinterlassen Spuren. Mit diesem Thema beschäftigt sich künstlerisch der Fotograf Rainer Zerback. In seinem neuen Bildband geht es genau darum – um die Verwandlung der Landschaft.

Nice study of sponge #metamorphosis,
Blard et al., Degnan lab:

"we present an account of the cellular and morphogenetic events during the first six hours of A. queenslandica metamorphosis, with the goal of understanding not just which cellular processes are deployed but how their spatial organisation and temporal sequence initiate and drive a coherent postlarval morphogenetic program"

She married her stepdad’s apprentice Johann Andreas Graff; they had a daughter & moved to Nurenburg. She contributed income by painting, creating embroidery designs, & teaching drawing lessons to wealthy girls, which allowed her access to fine gardens where she continued collecting & documenting. She published her 1st book of nature illustrations, titled Neues Blumenbuch, in 1675. In 1679, she published her insect research in a 3-vol, illustrated book focusing on #insect #metamorphosis. 🧵2/

Made a big change so I'm ready for the #SPNWatchparty #Metamorphosis

Happy Friday partiers!

Als die kleine Raupe Nimmersatt eines Morgens aus unruhigen Träumen erwachte, fand sie sich zu einem ungeheueren Schmetterling verwandelt.

🐛 Did you know a silkworm gains 10,000 times its birth weight in 35 days?

That is like a human baby reaching the weight of a humpback whale in that same timeframe.

Metamorphosis A Natural and Human History by Oren Harman, 2025

A search for the meaning of one of nature's greatest riddles: why do so many creatures transform?

“How many creatures walking on this earth / Have their first being in another form?” the Roman poet Ovid asked two thousand years ago. He could not have known the full extent of the truth: today, biologists estimate a stunning three-quarters of all animal species on Earth undergo some form of #metamorphosis.

🦋 A malformed Papilio xuthus has survived 20 days in captivity —
over twice the normal lifespan (5–10 days) while maintaining behavioral and physiological responses.
An exceptionally rare case worthy of scientific report.
