Light Talk with The Lumen Brothers

LIGHT TALK with The Lumen Brothers (And SISTER!) is a place where lighting designers can feel free to express what really annoys them about the industry and the art of stage lighting design. Inspired by the beloved NPR radio show, CAR TALK, LIGHT TALK with The Lumen Brothers features the musings and rantings of David Jacques, Ellen Lampert-Greaux, Dennis Size, Zac Borovay, and Steve Woods. These five theatre artists have been producing and designing the live stages and broadcast events of the world for many, many decades. Burnt out and abused by the industry and the insanity of the profession, LIGHT TALK with The Lumen Brothers takes the rantings of these four theatre artists to the world. Look for our regularly scheduled Podcast discussing the issues of our time. Nothing is Taboo, Nothing is Sacred, and very little makes sense. Welcome to LIGHT TALK!

LIGHT TALK Episode 176 - "Nekid Albino Bigfoot"

Aug 15, 2020

As many of you know, we record this show earlier in the week. Yesterday we received word that Howell Binkley passed away. His beautiful art has been seen all over the world on countless live productions... and of course, his magnificent and inspiring design for Hamilton has, and will be seen by millions. We send our condolences to his family and all his friends in the theatre and dance communities. Although we will greatly miss his humanity, his beautiful art will live on to inspire future generations of lighting desingers. Thank you, Howell. 

In this episode of LIGHT TALK, the Lumen Brothers discuss everything from Cliff Driving to Al, the LD at Home Depot.

Join David, Stan, and Steve as they pontificate about: David's Road Trip; Letters to Light Talk Central; Truss spots; FOH Mover techniques; Infra-red cameras; Hanging boards and tapes; Staying in shape; Landscape lighting; Shiner Bock lights; Shooting lawn fixtures with shotguns; Poor outdoor wiring; and Where to hang a 6-inch Fresnel.

Nothing is Taboo, Nothing is Sacred, and Very Little Makes Sense.
