2024 IES WINNIPEG - APRIL LUNCHEON

"The 5 Principles of Responsible Outdoor Lighting"

The luncheon will be held at: Sorrento’s at the Caboto Centre

1055 Wilkes Avenue Avenue, Winnipeg Manitoba
Thursday April 11th 2024
Time: 11:30 - 1:00pm

Presentation Overview:

Transformational technologies can dramatically shift industries seemingly overnight. LED luminaires, driven primarily by economic value, had such an impact on the lighting industry. Still, short of significant economic benefit, changefor the lighting industry and its stakeholders seems to move slowly. Aligning and agreeing on important principles across the industry is also made difficult by multiple sales channels and diverse industry participants, including "purchasers of light". Purchasers of light are typically non-lighting professionals, frequently relying on others for guidance and are often price conscience, disproportionally valuing low cost over highest value. In this course we consider the IES and IDA's jointly adopted resolutions regarding the Five Principles for Responsible Outdoor Lighting. What are they and how can we, as lighting influencers, help educate the industry and apply these principles for better outcomes in our outdoor environments, while implementing highest valued solutions for our customers.

 

Learning Objectives:

  • Explore the motivation behind the Five Principles for Responsible Outdoor Lighting

  • Review and understand the guidance within the Five Principles for Responsible Outdoor Lighting

  • Provide examples of strategies, at the application level (parking lots and street lighting), for better results as it relates to the Five Principles for Responsible Outdoor Lighting

    • Assess the potential economic value of the Five Principles for Responsible Outdoor Lighting for "Purchasers" of Light

2024 IES WINNIPEG - FEBRUARY LUNCHEON

“The 7 Things That Need To Be Fixed in the Lighting Industry. Like Now!“

The luncheon will be held at: Sorrento’s at the Caboto Centre

1055 Wilkes Avenue Avenue, Winnipeg Manitoba
Thursday February 22nd 2024
Time: 11:30 - 1:00pm

Presentation Overview:

With apologies to George Carlin. Industry veteran, Tom Butters, will explore 7 areas where the lighting industry needs to either up their game, change their focus, or blow it up and start anew. Coming out of the hibernation from COVID-19, the North American Lighting industry is experiencing seismic challenges mostly from within our own ranks. In this sometimes tongue in cheek, expletive laden, often self-serving diatribe, Butters will explore some of the issues concerning the North American lighting industry in 2023 with the goal to open a dialogue where all industry stakeholders can share best practices and move us forward. The industry is NOT better off than pre-COVID, but it can be.

Subjects that will be brought up may include:

  • Our siloed industry

  • The ludicrous fight over circadian lighting

  • The time to bury CRI was in 1964 not 2024

  • Clueless European management of some of N.A.’s historically leading lines

  • Lightfair

  • The dumbing down of lighting education

  • The diversity question

  • And the apparent total lack of empathy in the lighting industry.


    As with any of Tom’s presentations, he will seek to educate while being entertaining.


    DISCLAIMER: The views expressed in this presentation, are those exclusively of the presenter and do not reflect the opinions and beliefs of the IES, IES Sections, Lightfair, CRI, or any sane person.

“Rethinking Light, Design + Human Experience In A Solid State World of LEDs“

The luncheon will be held at: Sorrento’s at the Caboto Centre

1055 Wilkes Avenue Avenue, Winnipeg Manitoba
Wednesday January 24th 2024
Time: 11:30 - 1:00pm

Presentation Overview:

Light plays a critical role in the spaces we construct and for the people who inhabit them. As the built environment transforms from the assembly of inanimate materials crafted by a series of independent trade artisans to a world of intelligent, interconnected solid state electronic devices, new methodology is the imperative.

Learning Outcomes:

  1. Explore the basics of advanced architectural anidolic daylighting strategies and determine how they can be deployed with LEDs in solid state lighting technologies.

  2. Analyze human visual interpretation of light and color and how that affects perception in the built environment; distinguish different types of light spectrum control, and discuss the color tuning abilities of tunable white fixtures to improve the comfort and well-being of people in the noted environment.

  3. Identify application best practices for minimal energy usage in commercial and institutional settings using specific examples that focus on energy effciency and sustainable design values.

  4. Recognize the role of a lighting system as the backbone infrastructure in the next generation of buildings that synthesizes all elements of lighting design – industrial, optical, electrical, thermal and mechanical.

Winnipeg Chapter 053 Virtual January Event “Lighting Takes the Scene: An Exploration of Light through the Big Screen!”

Virtual Event: Thursday January 20th 12-1PM

Speaker: Victor Quezada, MFA, MIES

Associate - Architectural Lighting Team Lead

AES Lighting (By AES Engineering)

Abstract:

Star Wars, Tron and Blade Runner - what do they all have in common? The amazing use of light to accentuate emotion and tell a story.

Although most of us don’t design movie sets every day, there’s no reason we can’t elevate our projects to evoke that same feeling of wonderment and excitement we felt watching our favourite films growing up.

Lighting designers are tasked with setting a tone for a space that melds function with a sense of identity. By taking a cinematic approach to lighting design, we can create a space that provides that same sense of drama and emotion once felt at the theatre. The end result – lighting execution that is as timeless and unique as it is subtly nostalgic and familiar.

Join Victor Quezada, as he draws upon some of his favourite Hollywood films and explains how they can influence lighting design.

 

Learning objectives: 

Using selected scenes from films, we will:

1. Understand how contrast can affect mood and drama in an environment.

2. Learn how colour can be used as an emotional signifier.

3. Learn about architectural lighting integration, luminous planes & linear delineation, and their effectiveness in storytelling. 

4. Understand how filmmakers capture light in various genres, from 19th century period pieces to science fiction.

Bio:

Victor has over 13 years of lighting design experience. In addition to his lighting credentials, he also holds an MFA from the California Institute of the Arts. His strong background in visual and conceptual art allows him to navigate and carry out both the creative vision of the architect as well as the technical details. His design and product expertise contribute to a project’s overall beauty and sustainability and facilitates the aesthetic integration of the lighting solution with the overall design and environment.

Winnipeg Chapter 053 Virtual November Event “Designing Lighting for Human Biology”

Virtual Event: Wednesday November.24th

Speaker: Victor Quezada, MFA, MIES
Associate - Architectural Lighting Team Lead

AES Lighting (by AES Engineering)

As the COVID-19 pandemic has played out on the world stage, health and wellness has become a top priority for individuals and organizations everywhere. This presentation will explore the relationship between lighting, human biology, and well-being in a post-pandemic world. Research in the field of chronobiology, the science of biological rhythms, has shown that light is a synchronizing agent that regulates the region of our brain that controls our circadian rhythms. A human-centric approach to circadian lighting is at the forefront of emerging design trends as the world prioritizes physical, mental, and emotional well-being in the built environment. LED, UV, and circadian technology are positioned to lead the digital-first approach to enrich human experience and health.

Findings on specific light wavelengths and colours have further enhanced our understanding of how light and illumination have both a biological and behavioral impact on us. Appropriate lighting quality and rhythm promote wellness by matching our biological 24-hour clock. We have evolved to respond to natural cool and warm light cues that keep us alert during the workday or lull us to rest in the evenings. Intentional lighting interventions can be applied to promote healthy circadian rhythms, match our biological needs, and sync the human clock with the clock on the wall.

 

Learning objectives

By unpacking “physiological architecture” and its implications for industry professionals, we will discuss the benefits of considering how illumination levels, wavelengths and perceived colour impact our health, mood, productivity, and cognitive acuity. By understanding the science of light and its impact on human biology, we can learn how to best support health and wellness in the post-COVID-19 world.

Victor has over 13 years of lighting design experience. In addition to his lighting credentials, he also holds an MFA from the California Institute of the Arts.

The upgrade made significant improvements including better quality of light, greater lighting control, reduced maintenance and reduced lighting-related energy consumption by nearly 90%.

The tour and lighting demo will be followed by an on-site light lunch. This event is brought to you in partnership with Manitoba Hydro’s Commercial Lighting Program.

The Manitoba Hydro Commercial Lighting Program provides incentive to encourage customers to upgrade their lighting systems. Lighting Controls Systems are a currently under exploited technology. Often Customers feel that the cost and renovation effort of a control system exceeds the Economic benefit.

In this presentation, we will review a couple of “Case Studies” where the perception of “too costly” was challenged. When reviewed, analyzed, and optimized, the control based incentive was more than adequate to meet the cost benefit requirements for the project. The Energy Efficiency programs believe that control systems will be the next big step in the energy conservation portfolio.

Join us to see how to change a “to expensive” investment into a “What are we waiting for” project.

Embracing Urban Night Scape Through Light

World populations are more and more moving to urban areas, making cities population density larger than ever before. There are questions about what urbanization means, how prepared cities are because despite this increasing growth we are not using our urban environment to its full potential. Once offices/businesses close for the evening, level of activities in urban centers drop. The design of nighttime environments that instill feelings of safety, fear, and enjoyment which is critical; importance to economic and cultural vitality of urban centers around the world. Thinking about quality urban lighting is broadly recognized in Europe and big Asian cities for decades but has only recently been addressed in North America. The conventional idea of sustainable urban lighting is based just on economic and environmental-technical approach. Because lighting is mainly for people, urban lighting should be focused on the human experiences with a qualitative social engaging role. With appropriate consideration, quality lighting design can positively impact our cities’ ‘total architecture’, reinforcing urban design principles, enhancing cultural experiences and encouraging social interaction.

IES Chapter 053 February Luncheon

Understanding Tunable White Light

It is well known that overlaying the projection of one color of

light with the projection of a different color of light will result

in the creation of a third color on the reflected surface. And

the use of computer networks to control lighting is nothing

new, either. What is new is the continued reduction in cost

of LED-based luminaires and the development of better, more

affordable, user interfaces and controls, making a number of

different approaches to white color tuning possible.

Lighting Education Towards 2020

With the latest in technological advancements and physiological research in the lighting field, the need for unbiased lighting education has never been more acute. Who are you to believe when “experts” offer not only differing views, but polar opposite? With LED technologies and the questions of life, lumen depreciation, colour and even the effects on health, there has never been a time when the necessity for succinct lighting education has been more vital.
