LIGHTFAIR recently announced a new digital newsletter, “The future. Illuminated.” Released quarterly, the newsletter presents content from industry thought leaders, product information from show exhibitors, and updates about the annual tradeshow and conference.
The first issue was themed around Lighting and Wellbeing with content by circadian lighting specialists, lighting designers, photo biologists and more. Articles include “The Biology of Light,” demonstrating how light enters and travels inside the human body; “Lighting for the Spectrum,” exploring applying circadian lighting in the homes of children with autism; “Adapting Circadian Science to Circumstance,” discussing the role of client and designer in health-focused lighting; “A Cleaner Ride in NYC,” explaining how the Metropolitan Transportation Authority is using ultraviolet light lamps as disinfectant; and FAQs about GUV applications answered by the IES Photobiology Committee. Deborah Burnett and James Benya also weigh in on the different dimensions of wellness in the “Reflections on Staying Well” series. Finally, the issue spotlights past IALD president and president of CM Kling + Associates David Ghatan and cinematographer turned lighting designer and president of Innovative Lighting Concepts Michael Kershner.
