Neuroaesthetic Stage Lighting Design redefines stage lighting through the lens of neuroaesthetics, exploring how light shapes human perception, emotion, and experience. Interweaving science, philosophy, and art, it reveals the power of lighting to enhance beauty and meaning on the stage.
This book provides a comprehensive exploration of the aesthetic and functional principles of light by weaving together multiple threads of interdisciplinary integration, faithful reproduction of natural light, scientific foundation, and visual symbolism. It explores lighting that mimics originals, including natural light to enhance beauty and audience immersion, explains the biological and psychological effects of light on human experience, and examines how set, lighting, costumes, and videos contribute to the performance's imagery and audience perception. By using scientifically informed lighting design, the book seeks to create immersive and fully emotional performances. It encourages lighting designers to adopt an interdisciplinary, artistically informed approach and provides valuable insights into the lighting design process, surpassing traditional technical manuals.
A compelling read for theatre professionals, designers, students and researchers of neuroaesthetics, and anyone curious about the meaning and reasons behind beauty, Neuroaesthetic Stage Lighting Design reimagines lighting as an essential component of human experience and artistic excellence.
