What is Light?
Light has been studied and interpreted since antiquity with various degrees of depth. For thinkers of the middle ages and in many natural cultures, light=consciousness. For modern physics light is intimately related to energy, movement and time. Not all light is created equal; visible light is distinguished in two categories according to how the photons are generated: Incandescence or “hot light” and luminescence or “cold light”. Photons from the golden splendor of our Sun is of the incandescent nature, and so are the photons from fire and vacuum bulbs. Luminescent photons are found in molecules in creatures like the angler fish, and also in semiconductors. For most of our history, the only type of light we saw came from incandescent sources, because the light of the Sun, Moon, the stars and fire is incandescent. But today we are surrounded by a type of photon that for most of our history we very rarely saw, luminescence from phosphorescence and fluorescence.
Be careful that the light within you is not darkness.
– Jesus of Nazareth
Incandescence emits light from low energy levels to incrementally higher, in vacuum bulbs both photons and entire visible spectrum is produced from a wire filament that incrementally heats up until it glows.
And He created the jinn from a smokeless flame of fire.
– Surah 55:15
On the contrary, luminescent photons from a semiconductor come from the other direction, by electrons holes in the anode, emitting light as they decay in the depletion a layer, this light then photoreacts with phosphor and its entire spectrum is produced. In other words, both photons and spectrum are the product of the movement from a high energy level to a lower one.
The Light of the Holy Ghost is of only one species, that of the just and untarnished wisdom. The Light of Nature is of two species: the good one and the evil one.
– Aureolus Theophrastus Bombastus Paracelsus
Infrared rich light from incandescent sources has many beneficial and therapeutic properties, besides alleviating digitally strained sight and promoting cell regeneration, it also increases mental focus and prolongs productivity and creativity, excellent for artistic work and screen intensive tasks. The eyes are the window to the soul, a screen the window to your digital world, and light the medium by which the symbol is conceived and conveyed.
The question is not what you look at, but what you see.
– Henry David Thoreau
Light Emitting Diodes in the form of lasers and plain lamps have bestowed Humanity great technological leaps because of its light wave modulating properties and compact size, indispensable for many modern technologies, but unfortunately its luminescent photonic nature makes it second class to our biology, and it does not change with any kind of filter for a very fundamental reason; the source of its photons is inherently different from that of incandescent, and you simply can’t make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear.
The medium is the message.
– Marshall McLuhan
And has been shown that prolonged exposure to luminescent light provokes cell degeneration by photochemical reactions in the eye tissue and can cause permanent damage to the sight. ¹ Continuous exposure to this digitally luminescent light negatively interferes with the pineal gland, a neuroendocrine gland intimately sensitive to light located at the center of our head, also known as the third eye and the seat of the soul, ² ³ emitting a surface source light unlike anything seen in nature before that interferes with the Human nervous system. ⁴
Both light and sound waves carry information and time.
Spectra and gamut comparison
Digital spectral readings of an ordinary LED vs an incandescent bulb in wavelengths.
The coloured triangle represents the wavelengths an ordinary luminescent monitor can display. The horseshoe-shaped area represents colours Humans can see, but that the monitor cannot show. Sunlight and vacuum bulbs contains all wavelengths visible to the eye, therefore SpectrumView monitors have a 100% Color Rendering Index by its available light frequencies.

Demonstration of the SpectrumView 3000:1 contrast ratio and 75 fps, vacuum bulb backlit.
The SpectrumView monitor backlit by vacuum bulbs is excellent for creating art (27″).
Also excellent for screen intensive tasks (21.5″).
The SpectrumView electroincandescent lightbox (21.5″).
The SpectrumView monitor works with any operating system and is made of quality materials designed to last for decades, first grade panels and kiln dried wood with a traditional bee-wax polished finish. Detachable copper mounts ensure compact transportation and allow to permanently suspend the monitor in front of a sunny window. Natural lac varnished handles yield a good tight grip. The lightbox is thermally protected by low speed fans, the analog light dimmer makes it very easy to set the light intensity to the perfect level. The lightbox can work with both 120V or 240V 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 vacuum bulbs of 25w to 40w of 120v or 240v generic Edison E26 standard base, many replacement bulbs are included. Quality photons come at a price, using only bulbs to retro-illuminate the monitor for the whole day will increase your electric bill between 5-15% extra a month. Incandescent bulbs used for household appliances such as this monitor are exempted in countries where incandescent bulbs are banned. It is recommended to get a daylight-specific monitor in the same order if you have a sunny window, as its more convenient to have one permanently placed in front of a window in the correct setup, and another one purely vacuum bulb backlit, because filaments are very sensitive and fragile to movements, and continuous handling will shorten their life, vacuum bulbs can have lifespans of up to 100 years by not using 100% intensity. The lightbox when placed faced down can also be used as an excellent cured meat dehydrator, the dimmer sets the precise infrared radiation while the fans circulate air gently in and out continuously.
