Of course this is the motto of our alma mater, the University of California, Berkeley. But it also is applies to an initiative set around the essential nature of light. Through our explorations and projects, we will share our observations.
We owe much of this to not only our own experience, but also to the California Lighting Technology Center, led by Professor Michael Siminovitch.
This goes back many years but set the foundation for projects that built upon the research of the CLTC into the importance of tuning our lighting solutions to the circadian rhythm.The principles are circadian lighting are physiological.With new lighting technologies, we can now tune our lighting design to meet human biological needs. Light color/temperature can be improved with LED and control technologies. Even cell phones are tuned for “night mode”, so why not take this protocol to all aspects of our lives?
