Lighting Observation #6

1.) Wednesday Feb. 16th 2011, 5:20 P.M. Brower 201.

2.) Observing dusk through the windows of a dimly-lit classroom.

3.) Because of the time of year, my Monday-Wednesday art history class covers the amount of time it takes the sun to go down. I walk into class during the day and leave at night. During a boring slide show, I looked out the window and observed the dusky, dim, purplish light coming in that blended perfectly with the half-lit room and the glow of the projector. It was as if the artificial light and natural light blended perfectly. It was a very unsettling, disquieting feeling, something one would feel while watching a Hitchcock movie. Soon the balance was tipped as it got darker outside. That transitional feeling was memorable, though.
