ScanLAB Projects in the @nytimes!

"Some artists offer a glimpse of a future that is already occurring in some climates. Others imagine a world past the point of survival."

"A few years ago, the garden (@dbgphx) invited @ScanLABProjects to create a digital installation that explores how the changing climate was affecting plants, including the now fallen saguaro. ScanLAB is among a handful of artist-led groups using data to explore the climate crisis, giving visual forms to complex and daunting subjects, not to spark fear but rather to educate on the facts."

Don't miss your chance to see the exhibition, which continues at @dbgphx through May 10, 2026. Get your tickets at desertpulse.org

4 Bishop's Mitre blooms - 4.13 terabytes of data - 9,069 robotic spirals

'FRAMERATE: Desert Pulse' observes vast landscapes and the intimate breath of cacti.

To reveal the incredible, often unseen moment of a cactus in bloom, we engineered our own robotic camera rigs. They moved with precision around the flowering plants, day and night, spiral after spiral.

The outcome: the most intricate timelapse pointclouds we’ve ever made. These will become one of our large-scale artworks installed in the Cactus Gallery of Phoenix’s Desert Botanical Garden.

‘Desert Pulse’ is a portrait of a place over time: a year in the life of the Sonoran Desert. Opening October 2025 at @dbgphx.

Carefully situated among the saguaros of Phoenix’s Desert Botanical Garden, ScanLAB Projects’ “FRAMERATE: Desert Pulse” collapses a year of desert life into something the human eye was never meant to see — passing between 17 and 25 days per second. Five installations, on view through May 10.

The Guardian – Molly vs the Machines review – a powerful story of love, loss and the dangers of social media

‘Nearly a decade later, her best friends from school, interviewed for this documentary, have grown into articulate, impressive women in their early 20s. Watching them, you can’t help but be struck all over again by the terrible tragedy of Molly’s death and the loss to her family, who will never see the young woman Molly would be now.’

"Desert Pulse," an art installation at the Desert Botanical Garden (@dbgphx) in Phoenix, is a multi-sensory immersion featuring time-lapse imagery of Arizona's Sonoran Desert – a landscape pulsing with life.

@leecowancbs talks with U.K. architects Matt Shaw and Will Trossell, who brought a 3-D LIDAR scanner (a tool used in surveying) to the desert to capture tens of millions of data points, which ScanLAB Projects converted into vibrant digital evocations of an ecosystem breathing, growing and retreating.

@thetimes – 5 Stars: Molly vs the Machines: a film every parent should watch

‘This devastating and brilliant documentary’

‘As brave and dignified as Ian Russell is, it is Molly’s friends who leave the deepest impression. Now in their early twenties, they remember her with warmth and have a sharp understanding of why she died. These are members of the social media generation who understand its evils, even if they are still on Instagram.’

‘If there is a grain of hope it lies in films like this one.’

It has been a privilege, and to be honest both deeply challenging and inspirational to be a part of this vital piece of work. Acknowledging the total paradox of using here to spread the word - please watch this.

From a teenager’s suburban bedroom to the boardrooms of Silicon Valley, Molly Vs THE MACHINES is the story of a heartbroken father’s quest to uncover the truth behind his daughter’s death and his fightback against how the most powerful corporations of the modern age operate.

The film arrives in cinemas at a time when politicians are actually talking about taking urgent action. This is a film to watch together and to have conversations about - whatever your starting point may be. Take a friend with you, take a parent or grandparent, or anyone over the age of 15 who needs to know that what happened to Molly could happen to any of us. Once we fully understand the problem, we can work together to push for solutions that work for everyone.

We hope every screening will inspire people to connect and build momentum for a more accountable digital future.

Things to do in Arizona: FRAMERATE: Desert Pulse is at @dbgphx it’s an immersive outdoor art installation with pieces throughout the gardens. You can see it day and night now through May 10, 2026. The whole process of how they created this art is fascinating. @scanlab_projects trained people out here and had them to go to multiple sites around Arizona every single day for a year or something to scan in the same place with their technology, but also with a camera so that they could add color back into the scans. And the finished results are beautiful.
