Lighting Observation #1

2/5/25 – 9:52am – Davison Hall, Hofstra University
The glow of the projector, as well as the light coming in through the blinds of the single window in the classroom, in my writing composition class. All other lights in the room were off.
The giant, blank white screen created a sterile glow that consumed the entire room, except for the corners which remained shadowed and dull. Their darkness created a vignette around the space, as though the room had secrets which couldn’t quite be seen. It felt as though there was a constant, droning buzz within my head, as I stared forward into the endless ocean of hospitalic abyss. The only other source of light creeped through the slats in the window blinds, as if they were trying to bring in the sunlight of the early morning. But they could not. Only a few slivers of the vibrant rays of sun were able to enter the clinical environment, and even they were quickly extinguished by the artificial illumination by the overpowering machine. Light has never felt so lifeless.
