Earth centric lighting
What is Earth Centric Lighting?
Everything we see, from our entire perceived reality, color, texture, books, letters, movement, begin and end with one thing. . . Light
What is Light? Light is radiant energy. Specifically on the visible spectrum that humans can perceive with our eyes and brain. It is both particle and wave. Particle in the for of photons, wave in the way it moves and how it is perceived.
Our mission is to educate, learn, grow, develop and bring an overall awareness to how lighting can effect our health, mood, attention, behavior, movement and epically sleep. The difference between daylight vs electric light. New innovate ways to bring daylight into spaces. How to better control layered electric light indoors and outdoors. What type of electric lighting is best for your home versus various commercial applications. The benefits of light pollution reduction and how we can start taking action at an individual level.
Light tells us when to get up, when to go to bed. It can tell ancestral stories in mural of the night sky. It has shaped our the way our body functions over thousands of years. And with the recent addition of electric light within the last 150 years we can create some pretty amazing wonders, but when done incorrectly it can have devastating affects on our nervous systems affecting our sleep, rest and digest, mood, performance and overall wellbeing. Earth Centric Lighting is a focus on how light and dark play essential roles not only on humans, but nature as a whole, and how to harness the power and adjustability of light.
