Swedish creator captures stunning mushroom time-lapse videos
If you’re a fan of time-lapse videography showcasing cool things growing and dying, you’ll love the gorgeous videos from a Stockholm-based content creator who goes by “Grimblewood Thornwhisker.” These self-proclaimed “Wannabe Wizard” creates bonafide works of art and labors of love. His recent series “Myco Motion” features time-lapse videos of fungal growth and decay, with Thornwhisker serving as narrator, adding a quiet, story-driven voice while providing fascinating educational content about each species.
On the Myco Motion YouTube page, Thornwhisker explains that he documents “rare natural fungal phenomena through long-term observation and time-lapse photography.” The footage, mostly filmed in Swedish forests, beautifully captures “slow growth of mushrooms as it unfolds over time, revealing forms and processes that are often missed.”
One of his most recent videos features the “bleeding fairy helmet“ mushroom that grows on decaying hardwood. In the video description, he provides an overview of the long-form time-lapse film, which begins with the mushroom emerging, “gently swaying as it develops, and eventually being overtaken by bonnet mold.” He calls this a “quiet interaction between fungi, unfolding over time.” He continues:
This film is composed of several time-lapse sequences recorded across a three-year period. The log on which the mushrooms grew was originally found in the forest and then observed patiently over a very long time. An exercise in patient observation. Myco Motion is a nature documentary series focused on slow processes in the fungal world — growth, decay, and transformation at a scale often overlooked.
If you’re looking for something visually stunning and sonically soothing, and you’re interested in fungi, mycology, time-lapse videography, and nature films, check out the Myco Motion YouTube page. Thornwhisker describes it as “an archive of patience, rhythm, and the hidden life of fungi, one frame at a time.” You won’t be disappointed.

I'll just bet they are!
And from the NY Times:
"Mr. Trump told House Republicans they must retain control of the chamber in the midterm elections, saying he expected to face a third impeachment trial if Democrats hold the majority. “They’ll find a reason to impeach me,” Mr. Trump said. “I’ll get impeached.”
And another quote from the Times: “You have so many good nuggets,” he said. “You have to use them.”
Note: The Times reported these were "remarks to House Republicans at the Kennedy Center."
