It's episode 045, a most inauspicious number. Last episode EVER...to be recorded on this beast of a Mac Pro tower from 2010. You've been good to me, CODA.
In this episode:
-The Robe iBolt. We also chat about laser sources in general, and opine as to why FDA treats them so
-The Martin MAC Viper XIP
-The CM BatteryStar Hoist
-PLSN CONTROVERSY: is a FREE publication FORCING the little guy to PAY TO PLAY? Find out TONIGHT
-Tea Time: Rendering workflows, part I of who knows
-Lighting trivia: Craig gets it wrong. No, right!
-Lighting Term of the Day: Egg Crate
It's the Lighting Nerds! Into Logic and out of it again in an actually reasonable amount of time, belive it or not. Though sort of unreasonable when it comes to how long it's been since we released. Don't forget to join the Discord:
And hear other great pods at
lightingnerds.net. Update your bookmarks, folks. This episode is the one with the corrected audio.
Zounds! We're back again with a fresh helpin' of down-home, Wisconsin-grade minced oaths. We've got so much forking content to get through that if we don't get talking, we might driven to harder words like frickin' or shirtballs. At least there won't be any trolley problems.
In this episode:
During the time of holiday cheer, whatever you celebrate, may the light of truth and the warmth of love go with you in your hearts.
It's the Lighting Nerds, nerding out about lighting, of all things!
In this episode:
-The GLP X5 series, which uses four emitter colors...confusingly
-The KL series profile
- The passing of Richard “Nook” Schoenfeld
- Tea Time: Thoughts about the grandMA 3. Spoiler alert: not all good!
- Lighting term of the day: camlock, and to a lesser extent, a discussion of feeder
- Lighting trivia: Alex and Craig both don't know it!
Hopefully we'll be back soon. Much love to y'all.
It's episode 041! Not episode 042. That's the next episode. You know, I made some really delicious brussels sprouts tonight, they were like...flavor sponges. They were SO GOOD with the mustard and maple sauce that I made. Anyway...where am I? Who are you people? This episode was recorded in March, so things are a teensy-tiny bit out of date, but stick with us, folks. We have some good stuff here to talk about. Starting with:
Lastly, our hearts go out to all those affected by the recent gun violence in our nation. Please visit everytown.org to help save lives.
Yeah, we still podcast. Sometimes. In this day and age of little work, sometimes we seem to have even less time to get together to pod. Certainly, it affects our motivation. But we have mustered some up for you, dear listeners, so let's dive into this year's week's episode.
Because we suck at publishing, it's been a while. But here's a new episode, and it's 39, which is a LUCKY NUMBER. In this episode:
It's our THIRTY EIGHTH episode. Craig has finally moved, and finally got this edited. Geez. Two locations, two webinars, and a broken lead pipe later...we are finally releasing this old thang. Anyway. In this episode:
Hugs and kisses y'all. Register to vote. -C
Geeze, United States. We leave the room for ONE SECOND and everything goes up in flames, at times literally. To those who have asked: Craig is fine. (He lives in the Twin Cities, but all is well) In this episode:
The credits thought today is brought to you by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Article I.
In the midst of the global pandemic, we offer you this commentary on the state of the lighting industry. I have very few pithy comments this week, because this pandemic is just so emotionally draining. The strain of prolonged isolation is truly monumental. Hang in there, everyone. I'm feeling it, just you like are.
In this episode:
Yeah, we know you haven't thought about COVID-19 for like...ten seconds, but here we are anyway, talking about it. At least, like, a little. It's the episode featuring the OG Lighting Nerd, Gavin Lake! Say hello, Gavin.
In this episode:
It's a Christmas/Hanukkah/Kwanzaa/Las Posadas/Eid-al-Adha/Diwali/Festivus miracle! An episode: shiny, new, episode 034. Curl up in front of the fire, break out the Glögg, or if you're like Craig, Templeton Rye and have yourself a merry little whatever with The Lighting Nerds. I really should decide whether to always include the "The" or not. Sheesh.
We're back with the hackneyed animal similes. In this episode:
It's The Lighting Nerds, episode 032. That's an exponent of 8, which makes this episode extra-special. We also have Jose, my old L2 from Halsey, filling in for Alex, who's off making money for this ep. In this ep:
It's Episode 031! Craig and Alex are back, Craig had a baby. Well, his partner did anyway. It's the Episode with the title card you'll have to listen to the whole thing to get. In this episode:
Woah, two eps in the space of a month? Stop the presses! Hold the phone! Pet the hedgehog! Wat? In this episode, Alexander is back:
Industry news:
It's the Lighting Nerds, first ep of 2019. That's twenty-nineteen. Special guest co-host, Chas! In this Episode:
Happy New Year, you hoopy froods! And shouts to the excellent folk at IATSE Local 16.
It's the Lighting Nerds! Your go-to source for slightly up-to-date lighting information!
In this episode:
We're still not dead yet!
Craig's back from Halsey, and Alex is done with his move. We're here to chew gum and make podcasts, and we're stock full of Juicy Fruit. Er, or something like that?
Since I know you're listening, hi, Drew!
Anyway, in this "ep":
It's the TWENTY-FIFTH EPISODE of Lighting Nerds! In this episode, we keep Alex around, joke (or do we??) about being corporate shills, and talk about festival lighting.
In this ep:
-C
It's the one with Brad Schiller!
Fresh off the newly-reinstalled Silver Mac Tower of Audio is Episode 024 of The Lighting Nerds. In this "ep":
-C
We've fixed our audio! Thanks to everyone who sent me pineapples, I really appreciate it.
Our title this time references electric toothbrushes, people...obviously...
In this episode:
Happy new year, everyone! Here's to the continuation of the show.
-C
Does anybody read these? If any of you are reading this, shoot me a email / DM / tag me with "pineapple".
The Lighting Nerds! We're still around. Thanks so many to the many, many people who stepped up in to say that they'd be happy to host a show with me, it felt really good to find out that people still care and want to help. Introducing a new host who will be around (I hope!) a while, it's Alex! From Australia. You might know him as the guy who makes the Console Training videos on YouTube. He's also a Lighting Nerd.
In this episode, our first in several months:
Ed Sheeran tour. It's cool
MAC Encore line of LED fixtures from Martin.
GLP JDC1. Can we come up with a different name? Cool light, though.
And finally…
Merry Christmas
Happy Hanukkah
Joyous Kwanzaa
Rockin’ Ramadan
And a very special tip of the hat to those who believe in nothing but still want holiday pay.
May one day people all over the world not just tolerate but celebrate different faiths and cultures, and have their greetings accepted in the spirit they were given, without fear of being mocked and laughed at by those who lack understanding.
Peace.
Somewhat approaching a normal release schedule, I hereby...release a new episode. Wherein I bungle a movie reference. In this episode:
Remember when I said we'd be back soon? I lied. But Josh is back, and Gavin is not. It's Lighting Nerds, and we're still doing this! In this episode:
