sLowlife is a dynamic multimedia exhibition that presents plants as complex, living beings. Time-lapse movies show plants as they sense and respond to their environment. The gallery-style presentation includes photographs of remarkable plants, original sound compositions based on plant movements, concise text, and live plant material. 

sLowlife is a collaborative project of the United States Botanic Garden, the Chicago Botanic Garden, and Roger Hangarter, Indiana University. Original sounds by John Gibson, Indiana University. Additional support was provided by Indiana University, the National Science Foundation, and the American Society of Plant Biologists.
