Sign up for a local walking tour with Flux Studio's Glenn Shrum!
Flux Studio is a transdisciplinary design studio engaged in an investigation of light and its relationship to our perception of space. Their work spans conventional disciplines of art, design, engineering, and research, including urban lighting interventions and community engagement. Flux Studio is committed to advancing understanding of light’s critical role in society while addressing the needs of city residents, visitors, and the broader social context.
In Flux Studios work on the recent community lighting initiative, Signal Station North, the team explored ways in which light is critical to placemaking at night in urban environments. Flux Studio will host a Light Walk in Station North centered around some of the urban lighting issues they touched on during the Lighting Analysis. Sites will includes those they surveyed as part of the Signal Station North research, focusing on topics such as Color, Light and Shadow, Glare and Facade Lighting. The walk will raise issues of comfort in the nighttime environment, and include discussion of participants’ observations about how they experienced lighting in the district during the walk.
