12-16/10/2015- Συνάντηση Εργασίας "2nd International Lighting Design Workshop - ILDW (N. Κέα)

The Hellenic Illumination Committee (CIE Member) is staging the 2nd International Lighting Design Workshop - ILDW in Ioulis, capital of Kea Island from 12.10.2015 to 16.10.2015 under the auspices of the Holy Metropolis of Syros in the framework of the International Year of Light. The ILDW under the motto "Rethink the Night!" aims at the integration of small chapels into the nightscape of Ioulis in an accordingly night-friendly manner by means of advanced lighting techniques.

Workshop

The workshop aims at providing participants with personal visual experience of natural nightlight as well as with opportunities of evaluating its sufficiency & at developing skills of devising darkness minded lighting design concepts and applying relevant Low Lighting Level technologies in a commensurate with the available nightlight manner.

The workshop is supposed to re-establish the true meaning of nightlight equally to daylight, and make lighting experts rethink about the modest night-time version of natural lighting. In this sense comparative Dark Sky Quality measurements will be carried out and evaluated.

The workshop takes place on Kea from 12.10.2015 to 16.10.2015. Participants have to arrive at least one day earlier during the previous weekend. On the last day in the evening a farewell dinner is planned. Therefore return flights have to be booked for the subsequent weekend.

Representatives of the Workshop supporters will give lectures about specific nightscape related topics. Three chapels have been selected to accommodate experimental nightscape concepts under the guidance of experienced Workshop Heads.
