I only met Tharon a few times, but her influence on the lighting industry was immense. I would love to hear comments from folks out there about what her loss means to you both personally and professionally.

For those of you who have been around a while, I’m curious: What’s the greatest moving light of all time?

Most Useful iPhone Apps?

Since our panel of judges awarded Wybron a Product of the Year Award for its Gel Swatch Library for the iPhone, it got me thinking about all the iPhone/iTouch apps coming out every week. What are the faves out there for this industry or just for your small business…or, okay, just cool?

Obama’s Stimulus Plan

The US Senate just passed the $838 billion stimulus plan that’s been on the table. I’m wondering what those of you in this industry think of it (support? oppose?) and how you’re managing in the current economy.

The beginning of ownership

lotteryonstage — Thu, 18 Dec 2008 20:19:37 +0000

In 2005 after reading about designers using free 3D objects in stage and video I decided to post some of my best models on TurboSquid. Mine were unusual in the sense I made them from memories of things I had interacted with but never sketched or sculpted before. I felt this was a safe approach to intellectual property since any other form of them would have been mind reading. This worked OK for a while but still I had doubts about how they were being reacted to by those who might see similarities to them or saw them as seeds for real world designs in foreign markets. So I tested one with a Princeton toll for examining Virtual Reality files. The result was basically that it could tell whether I was sitting, standing or lying down and really was only interested in that material reality. So my model could be a floor, a chair or a bed or some other studio surface. The result was a takedown notice on the only file I thought was in any way talented in my technique. So I have now hidden my models in the surface description that VR suggested. .

We’re hearing about layoffs, freelancers experiencing a down-turn in business–everything you’d expect in this horrible economy. How is it affecting you?

Holiday Sites

Anyone seeing great designs specifically created for the holidays? We have quite a few in New York City, but that’s expected. What’s going on elsewhere, or new in New York that we might not know about?
