Re: [Yasmin_discussions] Announcing YASMIN discussion on LIGHT

Hello Yasminers,

Yes, this discussion could be is too broad. May be is difficult to surround
a topic which seems that is around everything. However, as Roger said,
"light is my business". In fact, light is our business, as art, science,
ecology, technology, ..., cover many aspects of light. Light plays an
importante role in my work. I work with semiconductor single quantum dots,
which offen are called artificial atoms. But i use light in order to
"extract" information from them (spectroscopy). In fact, the most exciting
topic that i cover is to analyzed this light in the "particle" picture. So,
photons. Aroun this topic, may be we can cover many aspects. For example:

1) History of light. There are many and different steps to understand light
as we understand nowadays. For example, light was considereded as traveling
with infinity velocity. Which is the same that is light is present in all
places. In midle ages there were very interesting researchs that shows for
the first time that light travel with a finite velocity. Light velocity
became possible to be measured. Afterwards, in one of the highest
scientific discoveries, light was understood as a propagating
electromagnetic wave (with the principal efforts from Faraday and Maxwell
in the XIX century). This was an interesting fundamental physics
unification (eletricity, magnetism and light). So, light was just an
special case of the electromagnetic radiation. Not to much later, new
technologies emerge, like radio communication (radio waves are longer
wavelenght light, which human eye can not detect). But, this is not the end
of the history, of course. At the begining of the XX century, Einstein make
another importante change for the idea of light. Light has a constant
velocity, independent of the observer. This was just an opposite conclusion
from the beggining (light has infinite velocity). So, light is deeply
correlated with the idea of space and time. But, far from the end, Einstein
put another important suggestion: light could be interpreted as kind of
"particles", photons. So, as matter was suggested to be quantized, the
electromagnetic field could be quantized as well. This idea opens the field
of quantum optics, which in my feelings is one of the most beautiful and
surprisings science fields.

2) All these fundamental research, for sure, was translated in many devices
and technologies. I mention radio communication, but today wireless or
bluetooth technologies, or GPS, are most of the same radio technologies.
But the industrial explosion is not only these. Early in the XX century it
was patented the Light Emitting Diode (LED), by a russian researcher. In
the 60´s it was invented LASER, which comes from a previous technology
called MASER. Fiber optics is a technology to manage light, and nowadays
many information technologies carrie the information through light by fiber
optics. Following the quantum optics recent advances, today we can dream
with quantum computers, quantum cryptography, or quantum teleportation,
which can be designed with special sources of light "entangled photons".

3) But these light technology, for sure is designed to be incorpored in our
society. Nowadays LED is a technology that becomes available and is used in
industries, arquitectures, ..., at the same time the twin brother of LED,
Solar Cells, gives us the opportunity to think about in a kind of green
energy (which must be defined if it is so green or not). Fiber optics are
designed to be sensors (chemical, tensions, temperature, humidity,
movement, ...), which use the propagation of light to sensing. At the same
time, fiber optics was proposed to create new ways of solar ilumination
inside houses, which only needs the energy from sun. Light is used to
develope new medical solutions, as light pointers for tumors (some examples
with my leved quantum dots, or metalic nanoparticles).

4) It is evident that light has an strog impact on art. Light becomes
visualization, represenation, color, images and imaging..., even all of
these culd be understand as a mental painting. So light is inside our
brains, as intense as outside or body. Light may be is imagination, and
metaphores. One of the most cited metaphores is the light of knowledge, or
the light from god. May be, as Roger pointed, when speak about light, in
fact we are speaking about darkness at the same time (absence of light). To
see, is to understand?, for sure, light is languaje at the same time, and
there are many controverse related to these metaphores of seeing,
knowledge, ilustration, ...

Let´s see if we van develope an interesting discussion.

All the best,

Guillermo.

[Yasmin_discussions] your moderator this week

yasminers

I am taking over from Guillermo in Valencia, Spain as your yasmin
moderator

if you are new to the YASMIN list please send us a short email introducing
yourself- when you walk into your community you shake hands dont you ?

guillermo and i thought we would moderate a discussion around Light
and the City- hope you will join in

here is my first post for reaction on the YASMIN discussion list

Yasminers

When yasmin moderator Guillermo Munoz, a nano scientist
in Valencia, Spain suggested we do a Yasmin discussion
around the topic of light I was initially skeptical. There seems to
be day or year of everything these days. But then he said in
passing : "light is my business" and it got me thinking. Indeed as an
astronomer "light is my business" because today the only way we
know anything about the universe is by detecting and manipulating
light. ( we have been trying to detect gravity waves, neutrinos, dark
matter and dark energy but have been failing)

The ironic thing is most things in the universe don't emit light at all.
Dark Energy and Dark Matter don't emit light and they are 97% of the
content of the universe. Astronomers have just been studying the
decoration on the universe ( its as if you told a ethnographer they could
study human nature and human societies but they could only study
humans who lived on snow or ice).

And then humans cant detect most kinds of light ( only a narrow band
around visible light)- whoever designed human beings did it badly
-if you really wanted to design humans to understand the universe
they would have infrared, radio and xray eyes too-and those gravity
waves are SUBLIME !!

Perhaps its amazing how much we understand by studying the decoration !

I look forward to Guillermo's comments as a nano scientist .

And then - for visual artists, light is their business too !

Anyway we thought we would have this discussion on yasmin- knowing
that it rapidly could become banal and un-productive

Guillermo is helping organise the 2nd Art, Science, City International
Conference 201
in Valencia this coming October with Light and the City as the theme and
where he will organise a YASMIN meeting-contact
him if you would like to attend !

http://www.artsciencecity.com/?lang=en

As an astronomer of course Light and the City makes me think of the problem
of light pollution. Humans are stupid - city lighting emits a large
fraction of our
energy into the sky un=necessarily and not where we need it= cut your
carbon foot print by designing
better city and home lighting !

By coincidence in Dallas I had the visit of south african artist
Marcus Neustetter.
he has this amazing public art project with the South African Large Telescope
http://www.sutherlandreflections.com/

Because of the needs of the observatory the local community in Sutherland
has to avoid light and radio pollution ( South Africa will soon be hosting the
largest radio telescope in the work; SKA https://www.skatelescope.org/
the Square Kilometer Telescope Array ) and in his talks he discussed
the social practice he has developed with the local town of 800 people.

Among other things they have build their own 'observatory' next to the
scientists telescopes: http://www.marcusneustetter.net/?p=621

This project is an excellent example of an art-science project that is
based on socially engaged practice and public art. I will be asking Marcus to
make a comment for our discussion

guillermo I hope you will inject your thoughts as a nano scientist !

Roger Malina

[Yasmin_discussions] Announcing YASMIN discussion on LIGHT

yasminers

Guillermo Munoz and I thought we would do a different kind of YASMIN
discussion impulsed
by this year's "International Year of Light and Light-based Technologies
that the 68th Session of the General Assembly of the United Nations (UN) adopted
on December 20, 2013, proclaiming 2015 as "International Year of Light
and Light-based Technologies" (IYL 2015).

This theme is also the theme of The 2nd Art, Science, City
International Conference 201 in Valencia this coming October
which will bring the art, science and technology community together
around problematics of the build urban environment.

http://www.artsciencecity.com/?lang=en

The deadline for abstracts is April 6 !!

We will also be holding a YASMIN meeting during the conference
organised by Guillermo Munoz

We look forward to your contributions to the YASMIN discussion
beginning next week on the
YASMIN discussion list

http://estia.media.uoa.gr/mailman/roster/yasmin_discussions

Roger Malina and Guillermo Munoz

The 2nd Art, Science, City International Conference 2015 aims to
promote interdisciplinary research on techno-scientific culture in
contemporary societies and its impact on the ways of life, paying
special attention to the impact of imaging technologies in urban
contexts.

The conference is organized by the Master of Visual Arts and
Multimedia of the Polytechnic University of Valencia (UPV) and the
University of the Basque Country / Euskal Herriko Unibersitatea (EHU)
to encourage and develop research projects that contribute to bridge
the gap between academia, professional practice and citizens, and also
between science and humanities.

This second edition of the conference offers an interdisciplinary
forum to discuss the most relevant experiences around the relationship
of art + science + city, placing light as the transversal structure.
Light understood from the complexity of its dual nature
(wave-particle) both in technological applications and theoretical
discourse; recognising light-based technologies and innovations that
are transforming communications, energy resources, new methods of
medical diagnosis and treatments, and their influence on our culture
and ways of visualization. That is why we propose as a general topic:

Light, more light ! = Visuality :: Energy :: Connectivity

The choice of the conference theme comes from the resolution of the
68th Session of the General Assembly of the United Nations (UN)
adopted on December 20, 2013, proclaiming 2015 as "International Year
of Light and Light-based Technologies" (IYL 2015).
Taking these themes
as reference, the congress will be structured around four thematic
panels, and the Creative Room, that will host the speakers'
dissertations.

Panel 1: Light [+] Visuality
Panel 2: Light [+] Energy
Panel 3: Light [+] Connectivity
Panel 4: Light [+] Light/Light + Darkness

Creative Room: Spectrum:: Light/Art [+] Science [+] City
Light [+] Innovation :: Technology Demonstrations; Information Boards

Light [+] Innovation aims at providing all ASC Conference participants
with the opportunity to meet companies and research organizations
which are actively developing light-based technologies. It will be a
space for technology demonstrations and information boards which will
encourage and facilitate the meeting of universities, business, local
associations and institutions.

[Yasmin_discussions] Proceedings of the La Clusaz Conference on Doctoral Education in Design Now Online

Dear Colleague,

David Durling and I have released the proceedings of the La Clusaz Conference on Doctoral Education in Design as an open-access digital edition in .pdf format. This is a page-for-page scan of the original edition.

Durling, David and Ken Friedman, editors. 2000. Doctoral Education in Design. Foundations for the Future. Proceedings of the La Clusaz Conference, July 8-12, 2000. Stoke-on-Trent, United Kingdom: Staffordshire University Press.

While the file is quite large, it is high quality and easy to use, with hyperlinks that go from the table of contents direct to each chapter.

You will find a full downloadable copy in the "PhD Training, Skills, and Supervision" section of my Academia page at:

https://swinburne.academia.edu/KenFriedman

The Table of Contents follows.

Best regards,

Ken Friedman
