IntroductionDid you know you can use a smartphone as a scientific instrument to explore the world around you? Smartphones contain many built-in electronic sensors that can measure phenomena such as sound, light, motion and more. In this activity you'll use the light sensor on a phone or a tablet to examine the brightness of light from different light sources and locations. How bright is the reading lamp in your living room compared with direct sunlight? Try this activity to find out!
This is where a smartphone comes in handy. There have long been stand-alone lux meters (for use in photography, for example), devices with a light sensor and a screen that would display light levels in lux units. Current smartphones and tablets, however, generally contain built-in light sensors that are used to automatically adjust screen brightness based on light levels (for example, making the screen brighter and easier to see if you're using the device in direct sunlight but dimming the screen in darker environments so it's not too bright for your eyes). Many phones can run apps that will display the light reading in lux units. To learn more about light levels in the world around you, find a smartphone or tablet and start measuring!
Observations and ResultsYou probably noticed how dramatically lux change with distance from a light source. You might only read a few tens or hundreds of lux when you are across the room from a light bulb, but if you hold your phone right up to the bulb, the reading could be in the thousands or even tens of thousands. This is because of a mathematical relationship called the inverse square law. As the light expands outward from the source, the amount of light hitting each area drops off very rapidly. The sun is so far away you might find it surprising that lux readings in direct sunlight are so high (in the tens of thousands of lux). This gives us a sense of just how very bright the sun itself is!
Having a unit of measurement and a device to measure it can be useful for determining and comparing different environments more specifically. You might find, for example, that a specific range of lux is the most comfortable for you to read a book. These measurements can be used for designing buildings, such as schools, to ensure there is the right amount of light for different areas and activities.
The 5* Royal Crescent Hotel & Spa in Bath is launching its very own luxury hot air balloon flight experience and package, available to book now and take to the skies from 1st April until 30th September 2023.
Working with Lux has been excellent. They provide insightful information on a proactive and summarized basis, which is exactly what I need. The breadth and depth of emerging technology and market coverage provided as well as the discussions and exchanges with Lux analysts on topics of particular interest have been particularly valuable. The Lux engagement team has always been very helpful, too!

The Coppermind has spoilers for all of Brandon's published works, now including The Lost Metal and Tress of the Emerald Sea (Secret Project 1). Information about books that have not yet been released, like the other secret novels releasing in 2023 and Stormlight 5, is allowed only on meta-pages for the books themselves. For more details, see our spoiler policy. To view an earlier version of the wiki without spoilers for a book, go to the Time Machine!
Brandon mentioned a planned Reckoners project for Mainframe in 2020 and again referred to the project as a trio of novellas.[6] In late 2020 and early 2021, Steven posted a few updates about the development process on social media; the working title was Deathrise.[7][8] During the revision process, the team decided that the pacing of the three novellas worked better as a single novel.[9] The novel is intended to stand alone; it has some time overlap with the previous Reckoners books, but reading them is not a prerequisite.[10]
On October 5, 2018, at 6 p.m. at the Seminary Co-op Bookstore, Norman Finkelstein (pictured above between the colossi of Nathaniel Tarn and Michael Heller) will be giving a reading. I will be serving as his interlocutor.
Norman is coming to read from his outstanding new book, From the Files of the Immanent Foundation. What is the Immanent Foundation, you ask? That question may be too sensitive for me to ask the poet directly; however, I can promise to ask other questions the circumlocutions of whose answers will very likely provide us with a shape if not an exact history of this institution.
Another comes from Kylan Rice, appearing in Literature and Belief. Here is a PDF of the review. Writes Rice: "Despite its unusual engagement with [the] terms of [its] debate, O'Leary's book is a methodologically diverse, playful, and attentive reading of ten contemporary poets. O'Leary's prose, which reflects the 'occult convolutions' he sees rippling through the history of American poetry, is alone worth the sale price."
Last month, Thick and Dazzling Darkness: Religious Poetry in a Secular Age received a generous notice by Steven Toussaint, native of Chicago, citizen of New Zealand, and presently residing in Cambridge. Steven mentioned the book as part of the "Reading List" feature connected to Poetry magazine. Here is what he said:
Thanks to a kind invitation by host Robin McLachlen, a recording of Ronald Johnson reading "ARK 34," his homage to Louis Zukofsky dedicated upon hearing of the death of the poet in 1978, and which begins the parts of ARK that make up the poem's second section, entitled "The Spires," aired on January 11, 2018 on CKCU FM 93.1 in Ottawa, Canada, along with a reading from me of my poem "Dante," which appears in Luminous Epinoia, published in 2010 by the Cultural Society, that resets/para-translates/dilates on Paradiso XXIV & XXV. Lots of other good stuff on the show. Have a listen!
Thick and Dazzling Darkness: Religious Poetry in a Secular Age has been officially published by Columbia University Press. I am thrilled. And moreso because the book is presently displayed on the legendary Front Table at the Seminary Co-op Bookstore, one of the great storehouses of intellectual power on the planet. Making the Front Table... Is there anything to compare to it? Meeting the Pope? Throwing a no-hitter? That's how I'm feeling.
In other news, I will be involved with a panel on the poetry of the great Nathaniel Tarn at the annual Louisville Conference on Saturday, February 24, 2018. Hidden mystagogue Joseph Donahue will be presiding. Tarn himself will be present and reading poetry the evening before, on Friday, February 23, at a reading hosted by the illuminating web journal Lute & Drum.
And because the world does not consist entirely of books, here is a photo taken in some antique land, perplexed by blue sky where boys and men stride into the tatters of the clouds. Is it the Planet of the Apes?
A new book of critical prose, Thick and Dazzling Darkness: Religious Poetry in a Secular Age, will be published this November by Columbia University Press. I am stoked. This represents over fifteen years of work; its appearance (I'm tempted to say "epiphany") fulfills long labor.
It is my understanding that this book will also be available through the Knowledge Unlatched platform. Stay tuned for details. And in the meantime, convince your libraries - local and university - to buy a copy! 2ff7e9595c
