The Light
“That which comes from the Light of the Holy Spirit is of only one specie…but that which comes from the Lumen Naturæ is of two species: The good one and the evil one.”
– Paracelsus *
Light has been a source of insight and wonder since antiquity, its one of the most interesting phenomena, scientifically speaking, light is the visible spectrum that carries energy and information, and its duality of nature is mind-bending as it can be both a wave and a particle. Since the dawn of time we mostly only saw incandescent light sources, incandescent light has been with us since the very beginnings, because the light from of all the celestial bodies and of fire light is of the incandescent nature. But today are surrounded by luminescence, almost every electric light source, from digital screens to street lamps is electro-luminescent. This kind of light has broken millions of years of adaptation of life to incandescent light sources.
“She is the brightness of eternal light, and the unspotted mirror of the majesty of God.”
– Sapientiæ 7:26 *
Light defines the source, and the source defines the light.
Since the dawn of time we have been exposed to incandescent light sources.
“Light upon light!”
– Surah 24:35
Light can be both a wave and a particle.
Luminescent light can be found in rare natural phenomena.
“And He created the jinn from a smokeless flame of fire”
– Surah 55:15
Visible light can be produced either by classical energy processes, (incandescence) when an element is heated emitting light across a wide spectrum, from infrared to visible light. Or by quantum electrodynamics proceses, (luminescence) such as electron-holes in LEDs emitting photons when an electron drops from a high energy level to a lower one.
Incandescence is the primordial manner by which light originates in the universe. Incandescent light originates from the low frequency end of the electromagnetic spectrum, born from the transition of low frequency states to incrementally higher frequency states, directly as a result of a classical energy mechanism, resulting in a complete light emission spectrum emitted across a wide range of frequencies without any gaps. In the other hand white led luminescent light is produced from the other end of the electromagnetic spectrum, by the transition from high frequencies to lower ones, resulting in a narrow and segregated light emission spectrum.
“You will know them by their fruits”
– Matthew 7:20
The discovery of electric lighting was still a continuation of the same kind of light that we have been seeing since the dawn of time, the real change came not by the arrival of electric light, but rather by the arrival of electro-luminescent light, namely CFL’s and LED’s, where light is produced by the opposite direction of the electromagnetic spectrum. This would be akin to cooking by fire which then changed to electric heating coils, but in both mechanisms energy is transmitted in the same direction – from the outside in, the real changed happened with the arrival of the microwave oven, which cooks from the inside out, in the opposite direction.
“Man cannot change or escape his time, the eye sees the present and the future.”
– Salvador Dali
Light is inherently interwoven with time, quantum processes have the capability to be “time-symmetric”, meaning the direction of time is not necessarily one-way like classical processes, which is strictly from past to future. In quantum processes, such as in electron-holes, a future event can influence the events that precede it, meaning the present can evolve in such a way that its attracted to a certain outcome determined by a future condition, this is known as “retrocausality”.
“The medium is the message.”
– Marshall McLuhan
In the last few decades have energy efficient sources of luminescent light producing components have appeared with many useful applications, but while this kind of luminescent light is very useful and indispensable for certain applications, its falls short in others, especially when used as the interface between the digital realm and your eyes, as prolonged exposure to it can provoke optic cell degeneration, causing photochemical reactions,¹ potentially leading permanent ocular damage, ² and negatively interfering a gland is so intimately interconnected to light that is has been given the name of our third eye,³ which produces neurotransmitter and neuroprotector hormones such as melatonin, serotonin and pinoline.
“Penetrating red light is possibly the fundamental anti-stress factor for all organisms.”
– Ray Peat

SpectrumView incandescent monitors are naturally rich in infrared frequencies, something completely lacking in ordinary monitors. SpectrumView displays alleviates and regenerate strained sight through a process know as “photo-biomodulation”, were infrared light frequencies and a complete continuous spectrum of analog light waves has benign effects in our eyes and mind, making possible cell regeneration, reducing inflammation, releasing endorphins, and promoting the formation of new blood vessels, thus improving circulation to the brain and heart, improving cognition and memory formation, attention span and creativity.

SpectrumView monitors illuminate your pixels with benign incandescent light from behind, like stained glass, and have a magnetically attachable/detachable electro-incandescent lightbox to choose solar backlight when possible. SpectrumView monitors are made from first quality materials and components, designed to last for a lifetime. It works with most operating systems and the bulbs employed are the same size and approved-listed for household appliances like ovens, and are not banned because they are not used for space illumination.
The new electro-incandescent lightbox models now feature brass heatsinks for better thermal dissipation and quieter operation.
Can work with both 120V or 240V at the flick of an inner switch without having to change all bulbs, its recommended to switch your operating system from dark to light mode for best results. It has 8-10 incandescent generic base Edison standard bulbs of 25w commonly used for ovens, with many replacement bulbs included. Thermally protected by low speed DC fans with genuine brass polished reflectors. Top quality liquid crystal display panels proven over time, bee-wax polished wood, ceramic sockets, and copper wiring, copper shielding available upon request. Strong copper mounts provide unmatched stability, and detachable for a compact transportation or to permanently hang it in front of a sunny window, genuine insect lac varnish handles yield a good tight grip.
The SpectrumView electro-incandescent lightbox can also be used as an excellent cured meat or fruit dehydrator when placed faced down and not in use, the infrared frequencies can be precisely controlled, with little interior heat due to a sophisticated circulating airflow design.

Only incandescent bulbs to backlight your monitor for the whole day will electricity usage, but if used suring winter the thermal energy will be subtracted from your heating, and so it will not cost. However, it is recommended to get a solar specific monitor in the same order at half price if you have a sunny window without a mosquito net and with either direct or indirect sunlight. Having a solar backlit monitor means you need you to adapt to the light needs of the monitor, therefore rearranging your space will be necessary, placing curtains or palm mat around the perimeter of the monitor 3 feet around is also needed.
Incandescent light bulbs are very ecological because they are only made Earth-abundant materials, such as glass and metal, bar none for sustainability to produce and disposed because no rare earths, plastics, mercury or semiconductors are used, it can also have lifespans of up to 100 years when properly made. Incandescent light technology is the future for digital backlight because it makes digital screens a more amiable, wholesome interface, transforming our communications for the better. Advances in nano-photonic incandescent bulbs will pave the way for the future of incandescent backlight and inspiring innovation in thermophotovoltaics, the energy of the future…
