NYSERDA, ConEd, and The DesignLightsTM Consortium invite you to attend “Designing Lighting Projects with High Performance T8 (HPT8) Systems”
This interactive seminar will take place on Thursday, January 8th from 5:30pm – 8:00pm.
Con Edison is hosting this event in their 19th Floor Auditorium at 4 Irving Place.
With demand for more efficient buildings and increasingly stringent energy codes, the need for better lighting design and more efficient products is a growing concern. By attending this training you will learn how to save energy for your customers while providing quality lighting.
“Designing Lighting Projects with High Performance T8 (HPT8) Systems” will cover:
- What HPT8 Systems are
- Implications for LEED
- Best practices for designing with HPT8 Systems
- How does ballast factor (BF) affect energy costs?
- T8 vs. T5
- Incentives available for you and your customers

Sharp Corporation / Japan has entered LED Illumination market. It recently developed a range of fixtures for factories, plant rooms, offices and similar applications where efficiency is of paramount importance.The fixtures aim to replace fluorescent lighting.
In the attempt to overcome high efficiency of High Frequency Fluorescent Lighting they integrated motion and/or daylight sensors into the fixtures thus hoping to increase the overall efficiency of the lighting system.

Swarm is one of eight interactive works selected for Re-ACT / Interactive Light Art – an exposition of art installations and objects, all with some form of built in interaction. It is a product of design collective called Blendid.
Re-ACT can be seen at Centrum Kunslicht in de Kunst (Centre Artificial light in Art) in Eindhoven from 27 September 2008 until 25 of January 2009. The Swarm will run as part of the GLOW art-route.
Here’s what Blendid had to say about their installation:
Swarm is an interactive light sculpture created by Dutch interaction design collective Blendid. The piece takes much of its inspiration from swarms, flocks and schools where many individuals seem to appear like a single super-organism. Here some 500 individually controllable Wixels (wireless pixels) react, by means of computer vision, to people in the space underneath the installation.
This piece is the first large Wixel project on public display and a dazzling example of the kind of light sculptures this technology enables. Swarm can be seen at the Centre for Artificial Light in Art in Eindhoven (the Netherlands) until February 2009 and is still looking for a permanent home.
