Light’s interaction with space engages the sense of vision, conveying information about color, texture, and shape. The mind interprets this information to generate a primary comprehension of the physical environment, identifying materiality, understanding spatial dimension and depth, and making daily human function possible. Complimenting the analytical understanding, the experiential quality of a space has the ability to amplify perception. The manipulation of light causes primal associations, rooted within our evolution, to stir in the subconscious; activating the mind to question and understand intangible influences on the space. Stimulating thought and emotion using light, a complexity in spatial comprehension develops. The heightened perception fosters an increase in aptitude as the mind functions on a multitude of levels. Applied to centers for learning, the increase in mental capacity as promoted by light can modify and enhance the educational environment. 2003-07-07 English text University of Cincinnati / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1053441038 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=ucin1053441038 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
