2nd lighting observation
1) March 1st – 10:24 p.m – my common room: I had my second lighting moment on Tuesday night in my common room in Suffolk Hall.
2) Me and my room mates use a pink inclandestine lamp that stands in the corner of our common room. It doesn’t emit that much light but it’s better than turning on the fluorescent hanging lights.
3) On Tuesday night me and my room mates were watching the 20/20 Charlie Sheen interview. A part of the way through it we turned off the fluorescent lights and turned on our pink lamp. The lamp is bowl shaped and only uses about a 40 watt bulb. When we turned on the lamp the room instantly turned into a medium pink color. Since the light isn’t that bright the room at night gets much darker. As we were watching and the light changed it seemed to make the interview more intense. The color of the room made by the lamp felt fantasy like and other worldly. Which is exactly what I think is going on in Sheen’s head. The room took on a more intimate feel when the light changed. And it seemed to grow smaller. Its such a difference than when we have the fluorescent lights on. It’s more cozy and comfortable. The pink shown up toward the ceiling and made a circle like shape just above the lamp.
