the good and evil present in the world. Lightness represents day, whereas darkness signifies night. The light we see…

the accepted principle for optics originated from the Greeks and stated that the eye gives off light itself to produce images of objects . However, Al-Haytham considered situations in the real world that simply didn’t agree with the Greek findings, such as why objects like the moon can’t be illuminated from great distances. Al-Haytham formulated that the eye is instead a receptor of light, and that light is dispersed and diffused in geometric patterns. This is one of the fascinating things…

creation of artificial photoreceptors as well that could connect to neurons in the brain to create the image for the blind person to see. The key component in the blind person gaining sight is the creation of artificial photoreceptors because they detect light. Photoreceptors convert information into chemical signals that stimulate neurons that process movement, color, and details that the brain can interpret. With the photoreceptor doing these tasks the information then passes the optic nerve…

My ears were popping and I was starting to feel light headed as we climbed higher and higher toward Red Rocks Amphitheater. Red Rocks is right outside the edge of the hipster, pot smoking, mile high city Denver. I was going to see the dirty rocking, alternative, up in coming band Cage the Elephant. When you are first entering Red Rocks park everything drastically changes. The sky starts to turn a darker more vivid blue as everything else turns a tint of red form the dust. The mountains around…

Introduction Interior design is an exciting and rewarding occupation. It revolves around creativity, intellectual fulfillment, and also provides a lifetime of personal appeal. Interior design is vital, vibrant, and dynamic, meaning that as the world changes so does life around us, and design keeps up with the pace. Since we are also evolving and advancing into the future with new technology and ideas, the interior of a space is never truly finished, because it can always be enhanced by the…

Uniquely in the third stanza, the shift to focus on the setting with the total destitution of the library’s poetry and dimming light conveys the speaker’s comparison of poetry to a source of light. When “The poems are gone,” the light is determined to be dim and disappearing, leaving the speaker to “romp with joy in the bookish dark,” thus alluding to a comparison of poetry to light. When the poetry is diminished, there is only the darkness emitted from novels left in the library. In like…

June, the month of the Dyad moon, the time the God and the Goddess become one. It is a time to seek harmony in all things: light balances dark, heat balances cold, and good balances evil. Brenna Lindsay stood silently in the circle she'd formed of white beeswax candles. The full moon bathed the clearing with silver light. Cool night air met the still-warm ground, creating wispy patches of ground fog blanketing the earth like a sheet of transparent white cotton. Her wolf, White Star, sat on his…

to the dimly lit parking garage. With minimal light and dozens of parked cars I continue to the second level to find a space. Loud music, chirp chirp from alarms and slamming doors have become a part of my morning routine. I cut the engine off and gather my belongings for the day all while making the same chirpings noises I heard a few minutes prior. Pulling out what looks like a credit card from my pockets, I tap the black box and the green light appears. I open the metal door and walk…

of the pebbles going around in a circle. The shape helps the rhythm because of the repetition of the pebbles. The predominate light value is balanced between light and dark. The light value transitions are gently modulated. The contrast is created through value and color. The contrast of the dark hole and the white pebbles around it. The colors descending from dark to light and then back to the darkness of the hole. The darkness of the hole is emphasized because of the white pebbles around it.…
