LEUKOS: The Journal of the Illuminating Engineering Society Special Issue: Museum Lighting Call for Papers Deadline: 31 March 2018
http://explore.tandfonline.com/cfp/est/ulks-cfp-special-issue-museum-lighting Investigating how modern lighting solutions can improve customer experiences in museums? Concerned with the challenges new lighting technologies present for conservation of museum exhibits? Please contribute your research to the Special Issue of LEUKOS on ‘Museum Lighting.’ Why this subject? Museum lighting is at a pivotal moment. Solid-state lighting (SSL) promises to transform the illumination and display of art. LED lighting offers many opportunities to present art, heritage and archaeological pieces in a better light. Literally. But they present new challenges concerning conservation and the best customer experience. The challenges are likely to be addressed from applied and multidisciplinary research. This includes engineering, architecture, vision science, psychophysics, psychology, conservation science, physics, and chemistry. This special issue will follow the 1st International Museum Lighting Symposium and Workshops, to be held September 11 – 12, 2017 at University College London.
