What is light
Light sources have been a source of wonder and inspiration since antiquity.
Light is one of the most relevant phenomena in the universe both physically and figuratively. Visibly speaking photons are electromagnetic frequencies visible to our eyes, but not all light is created equal, the source that created light imprints its own fingerprint and characteristics, the very essence of its origins.
“The Light from the Holy Ghost is of only one specie…but that which comes from the light of nature is of two species: The good one and the evil one.“ ¹
– Theophrastus ParacelsusĀ
Precise shape of a photon.
Light can be a wave and a particle.
The duality of light is a very fascinating aspect, and only by fully understanding this can it help us design better technology. Photons can only come from two sources and these are incandescence or luminescence, in other words by an element that incrementally gains energy until it glows, until it glows through classical energy processes (incandescence), or the other way, by forcing electrons to quantum drop from a high to a lower energy level (luminescence). Since the origin of the light is in a totally different way, the observable properties of the light are inevitably different as well, regardless of how closely they are to color temperature or rendering. The speed of light is also another fascinating aspect of light, for example the light from a star we see today has been travelling for millions of years.
The light of the celestial bodies, thunder and fire is of natural incandescence.
Artificial incandescent light sources such as fire have have been around a long time.
Natural luminescence occurs very rarely in nature like in fireflies, auroras and some deep sea creatures.
Very modern computers experience time dilation thanks to the special properties of artificial solid-state luminescent light.
Both incandescent light and luminescent light sources have their own uses and unique applications, for example, incandescent light is the benchmark of colour fidelity because it has inherently a complex spectrum made of every visible frequency, with a completely random photon phase. And luminescent solid-state light having very useful applications like being able to transmit enormous amounts of digital information through its digital light pulses, something indispensable for our worldwide digital communications, and something not possible for incandescent light sources to do because its thermal inertia naturally prevent them.
Analog signals are sinusoidal in nature while digital signals are square waves representing on and off states.
Analog signals are a representation of the continuous changes of any physical analog phenomena and therefore operate in a spiral manner.
Analog signals behave in complex fractal ways while digital signals are synthesized as on/off pulses.
On the other hand luminescent light has a non-continuous spectrum and its photon generation is also not continuous, rather in discrete quantum transitions, like a digital on/off signal, even if DC voltage is used. Luminescent light is very useful for certain applications but its third class for others, for example its spectrum is intrinsically a superposition of a handful of emission bands, that may appear as white light but in reality there are real spectral voids where there is literally no light at those frequencies, on the other hand the incandescent spectrum has no spectral voids because its continuous spectrum from start to finish, therefore it is the undisputed champion in colour rendering and spectral fidelity.

The discovery of the incandescent light bulb was a continuation of fire-light, but now made through electric processes rather than chemical ones. But the arrival of luminescent light was a completely different kind of light that we rarely seen before since it occurs so rarely in the natural world, and while it does have useful applications and uses, it also falls short in others and this difference can never be resolved to its inherent nature imprinted from its very origin.
The backlight of ordinary monitors is emitted from a semiconductor through electron-hole quantum processes, binary sequences are also present in ordinary monitor backlight in the form of PWM.
Semiconductors have some of the flattest surfaces in the universe.
Broadband incandescent analog lightwaves emitted through classical mechanics is the backlight of an electro-incandescent SpectrumView monitor.
Filament surfaces are anything but flat.
An analogy of the difference of electrical incandescent light producing mechanisms and electrical luminescent mechanisms would be the difference between heat produced by an electrical resistance, to heat produced by a microwave oven, both heat but the difference on how it is achieved resides in the direction the movement of energy, one heating from the outside to the inside, while the other heating from the inside to the outside, the aim of heating is the same, but the means to accomplish it is different, and herein resides the crux of the matter.Ā
The nature of luminescent light to the analog nature of our biology, especially when exposed to it over and over from digital luminescent screens damages the sight and can provoke optic cell degeneration through photochemical reactions,¹ leading ocular damage, ² and also inhibiting the light sensitive pineal gland,³ which produces neuro-transmitting and neuro-protecting hormones such as melatonin, serotonin and pinoline.
“Penetrating red light is possibly the fundamental anti-stress factor for all organisms.”
ā Ray Peat
A computer monitor or any digital screen is the interface between the digital realm and our analog biology, and just as there are digital oasis in the analog world, there must also be analog oasis in the digital world, and the SpectrumView incandescent monitor is such analog oasis. Spectrumview handcrafted monitors feature a continuous full-spectrum incandescent light naturally rich in infrared frequencies that regenerate optic cells through a process called photo-biomodulation, reducing ocular tissue inflammation, alleviating photosensitive sight and promoting the formation of new blood vessels and improving blood circulation to the brain, enhancing cognition, focus and memory. ā“
Light makes information be conceived in a screen.
“The medium is the message.”
ā Marshall McLuhan
Light and time are intimately interwoven and in quantum processes time is not necessarily one-way like in classical processes, through quantum mechanisms retro-causality and “time-symmetry” are a possibility, in which the present you experience may be the pattern interference from a causal to a retro-causal standing wave encounter.
“The eye sees the present and the future.”
– Salvador Dali

Traditional bee-wax polished wood body makes SpectrumView monitors the Rolls-Royce of monitors.
Japanese style precision woodwork with detachable copper stands and lac varnished grips.
The new brass-heatsink models have better heat dissipation and require lower fan speeds.
The Starlore model has an assemblage structure in the back to put a cloth in order to use it, placing this cloth is necessary and is not included (previous model 21.5″).
SpectrumView monitors are built to last, with specially tempered quality wood and components, the lightbox is thermally protected by a sophisticated airflow cooling design system, with genuine brass heat-sink reflectors and high quality fans running at half speed. Traditional natural bee-wax polished body, ceramic sockets, and copper wiring. Strong copper mounts provide unmatched stability and are detachable for a compact transportation or to permanently suspend the monitor in front of a window for day backlight.
The light bulbs used for the lightbox are the same size, base and wattage approved for household appliances such as ovens and fridges, and are not banned since they are not used for general space illumination, The SpectrumView electro-incandescent lightbox is also the ideal cured meat and fruit dehydrator when placed faced down, and can be separately shipped as such. 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, twice as many replacement bulbs are included, which should last for many years if well treated.
Using only incandescent bulbs at full intensity for the whole day will increase your electricity bill, but if used during winter the equivalent thermal energy will be subtracted from your heating so usage costs, and if daylit during the summer the electricity usage will not rise in total.
