ATLANTA, GA – LightFair is keeping the lighting industry connected and informed with a new digital newsletter, “The future. Illuminated.” Released quarterly, the newsletter presents informative content from industry thought leaders as well as product information from LightFair exhibitors and updates about the annual tradeshow and conference. It combines the knowledge of IES, IALD and the experts featured in LightFair’s events to be the voice of the lighting industry.
“LightFair provides a platform for lighting professionals to share ideas, discover trends and exchange knowledge. The newsletter allows us to extend that platform throughout the year,” said Dan Darby, LightFair show director. “As the new pulse of the lighting industry, we encourage our community to engage by subscribing, interacting and submitting content.”
The inaugural issue – available now at LightFair.com/newsletter – is 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.
