    #382 - Iluminación sin Fronteras: del Diseño a las Estrellas

    Y por fin llegó el día. En este primer capítulo damos inicio a una nueva etapa: Get a Grip on Lighting en Español, la versión en nuestro idioma del podcast en inglés que lleva años iluminando la industria. Exploramos el fascinante mundo de la iluminación desde dos perspectivas únicas: el diseño y la astronomía. Acompaña a nuestros conductores Alex Carrillo, un diseñador de iluminación y Fernando Ávila, un astrónomo experto en contaminación lumínica, mientras discuten qué es la luz, cómo nos afecta y su importancia en la sociedad. Descubre las diferencias entre luz natural y artificial, su impacto en nuestras vidas y el futuro de la iluminación. Agradecemos especialmente a Michael Colligan por su inspiración y apoyo en este emocionante proyecto. Escúchanos y sé parte de esta conversación! Si tienes ideas, preguntas o te gustaría unirte como invitado en un futuro episodio, ¡nos encantaría escucharte! Acerca de los conductores, Alex es un diseñador de iluminación mexicano relativamente joven que estuvo en el Episodio #364 de GAGOL y desde entonces dejó sembrada la idea de hacer la versión en Español del podcast. Ha realizado proyectos de iluminacion de todo tipo en varias partes del mundo y ha dado clases de iluminación en diversas escuelas en México, por lo que compartir y opinar respecto a la industria de la iluminación, no es nuevo para él. En contraste, Fernando Avila desde niño se enamoró de las estrellas y hoy trabaja para el Observatorio Astronómico Nacional en México, como responsable de la Oficina de la Ley del Cielo, donde busca proteger el entorno natural nocturno de la contaminación lumínica. Fernando también es parte de Dark Sky International desde 2013 y actualmente está en su mesa directiva.

    #381 - Induction - Don't Call it a Comeback

    If Nikola Tesla only knew… Philip Gotthelf has run with Tesla’s invention and made it “the most advanced sustainable commercial lighting on the planet.” In this episode, you’ll learn about induction lighting, but Philip is also pretty knowledgeable about LED, flicker, and blue light effects on the pineal gland. And don’t get him started on road lighting! Philip Gotthelf is a world renowned authority on energy markets and technologies. His expertise dates back to the original formation of energy futures markets in the 1970s where he worked directly with the New York Mercantile Exchange to popularize their crude oil and #2 heating oil contracts. In response to the first Earth Day on April 22nd, 1970, Philip Gotthelf became a crusader against the “Five Ps;” the pollution targets of 1) air, 2) water, 3) soil, 4) light, and 5) noise. In 1982, he revived Nikola Tesla’s magnetic induction light (MIL) to achieve energy efficiency and longevity while reducing light pollution and protecting soil and water from dispersed mercury contained in fluorescent bulbs. In 2007, he created a line of modernized MIL under Ultra-Tech Lighting™ which is now operating as Tesla Induction Lighting Co. in deference to Nikola Tesla who invented the technology. His design objectives included minimizing glare and light pollution to achieve Dark Sky compliance without sacrificing visual acuity, creating quiet drivers (ballasts) to address noise pollution such as the 20,000 cycle harmonic that can disturb bats and canines, encapsulating mercury to render it environmentally inert, eliminating high-frequency flicker to eliminate dangers of strobe migraines or even epilepsy, and developing precise spectral tuning to provide the correct wavelengths for specific applications. Tesla Induction Lighting has the only proven “white light” fixture that does not distract sea turtles like the Green and Loggerhead. His Snow-Bright™ brand has been approved as Dark Sky compliant by the Grand Teton Environmental Commission and the University of Wyoming infrared observatory. Philip Gotthelf has been an active environmentalist for more than half a century.
