The Mothbox fundraiser is here! I made scripts to visualize @mothbox.bsky.social data in fun ways!

We can use a dataset collected from any particular night to generate neat patterns that can then easily be turned into super cool MOTH FASHION!

This batch represents all the insects we saw on September 3rd, 2024 on a trip to Mt. Totumas in Panama!

We make about $9-$12 per item and will use the money to do more Mothbox development and biodiversity research! Maybe we can raise enough money to donate a Mothbox somewhere!

Hiya folks! For new people here's the big project we have been working on in Panamá!
The Mothbox!

It's a fully #opensource insect camera trap with loads of documentation to build the whole thing yourself from off the shelf parts!

Apply to it, it's really well done!

Doing a fun quick vertical transect of insect biodiversity with the #Mothbox on a canopy tower in Panama. (Btw the moth shirts are actually a dataset from a full night's captures! We will be doing a fundraiser with them shortly!)

Me and @briannaljohns.bsky.social retrieved some #mothbox es today from a canopy tower experiment here in Panamá, and happened to be wearing our matching "Gathering for Open Science Hardware" shirts!
