This course is going to give students a general insight into artificial illumination and its use.

It does so in pursuing three goals.

First:

we are going to work from the stone lamps of Lascaux ,to the holographic imaging in glass cubicles, on our cultural-historical understanding of light and the specific technical realities, which led to these phenomena.

Secondly, the course is going to provide and improve the students basic knowledge of the use of artificial light and the lights used to create such emissions.

Thirdly, we are going to train and learn the ways of communicating in professional surroundings.

To get a degree, presence on both days and actively taking part in reflecting subject matters is mandatory.

I will announce the seminar room at least one week before the respective date.
