What is Light?

“The Light of the Holy Ghost is of only one species…The Light of Nature is of two species: the good one and the evil one.”

Theophrastus Paracelsus

Light is defined by the source, the visible light that our biology can perceive is only produced by two sources: Incandescent and luminescent sources.

For most of our history and prehistory, we mostly only saw incandescent light sources, because the light of the stars, the celestial bodies, fire and thunder are of the incandescent nature. Rarely did we see luminescent sources, but today are surrounded by them, especially by semiconductor backlight. A backlight is the light medium by which information is conceived and conveyed in a digital screen.

Incandescence also called black-body radiation is the fundamental and  primordial natural way that universe produces the full electromagnetic spectrum. The light is produced by the transition from a low energy and frequency state to incrementally higher ones, such as a metal filament that incrementally gains energy until it glows.

Incandescent bulb and candle spectrum.

Luminescence is emitted by the transition from high energy and frequency states to lower ones, it comes from the movement from the high frequency end of the spectrum to the low frequency end, It can be found naturally in creatures like the angler fish, its spectrum is naturally discontinuous and narrow. Luminescent light from semiconducting light emitting diodes are produced by “electron holes” which then photo-react with phosphorous, electron holes can be thought of as “energy sucking” because photons are emitted when a capture electron fills a void, and can also exhibit quantum tunneling properties.

“And He created the jinn from a smokeless flame of fire.”

– Surah 55:15

Incandescence does not rely on electron holes for photon emission and does not have quantum tunneling capabilities, and its naturally rich in near-infrared frequencies, something completely lacking in luminescent dispalys. A near-infrared rich backlight naturally alleviates and regenerates strained sight, because the infrared spectrum has many beneficial impacts on our biology because it reduces inflammation, releases endorphins, promotes the formation of new blood vessels and promotes cell regeneration through a process known as photobiomodulation.

 “The eye is the lamp of the body, if your eye is good, your whole body will be full of light.”

– Jesus of Nazareth

Semiconductor light has bestowed Humanity great technological capabilities because it can be digitally light wave modulated, something incandescent light sources cannot to do. But prolonged exposure to semiconductor and luminescent light in general provokes cell degeneration by photochemical reactions which can cause permanent damage. ¹ It also negatively interferes with the pineal gland, a transducer gland located in the center of the brain, known for producing neurotransmitters and neuroprotector hormones such as melatonin, serotonin and pinoline. This gland is so intimately stimulated by light that is also known as “the third eye”.³

“The medium is the message.”

– Marshall McLuhan

SpectrumView incandescent monitors illuminate your pixels with benign light sources from behind by its translucent back, with a magnetically detachable incandescent lightbox to choose natural sunlight when possible, made from the best quality materials and components, designed to last for a lifetime.

The lightbox can work with both 120V or 240V current at the flick of an inner switch without having to change all bulbs, which means you can use 120V bulbs in a 240V country. It uses 8-10 incandescent generic Edison standard base bulbs of 25w to 40w commonly used in ovens, many replacement bulbs are included. The lightbox is thermally protected by three low speed DC fans and genuine brass heatsinks. First grade panels, traditional bee-wax polished wood, heat resistant ceramic sockets, brass plate heatsinks, and copper wiring. Detachable standing mounts ensure compact transportation, and to permanently suspend it in front of a window, genuine lac varnished handles yield a good tight grip.

apparatus

Old world tech.

Using only incandescent bulbs to backlight your monitor for the whole day will increase the electricity bill by around 5-15%, but if used during winter, the radiated thermal energy will be subtracted from your heating bill, and so the electricity consumption will cancel out. However, it is recommended to get a daylight specific monitor in the same order if you have a window without any shadow casting elements, and with either direct or indirect sunlight, to permanently place it there for natural backlight during summer. Having a natural specific backlit monitor means you have to adapt to the luminous needs of the monitor, and rearranging your space accordingly. Incandescent bulbs can have lifespans of up to 100 years if not used at 100% intensity and physically not move them much, the incandescent bulbs used for the lightbox are the same used for household appliances such as fridges and ovens and such are not banned, the lightbox can also be used as an excellent cured meat dehydrator when placed faced down when not in use.
