Subtitled Essays on Theatrical Design and Human Nature, this compilation of twenty-nine articles, originally published in 'Lighting Dimensions' and 'Theatre Design &amp; Technology' (TD&amp;T), range from silly (Murder, He Wrote), to sublime (Regarding Chaos and the Theatre). In between, Mr. Salzer's pen probes the paradox of how most New York designers spend all their time working out of town (Damn New York Designers), he wrestles with philosophical issues (Power, Greed, Self and Humiliation), and he even takes a political potshot or two (Art, Nude Children and Pornography).

This thoroughly revised and updated edition is for the advanced student of lighting design and technology. It goes beyond techniques for creating light plots and focuses on the art of lighting design. Emphasis is given to the designer's thought processes and the collaborative nature of theatrical design, especially the designer-director relationship. Other advanced topics covered include: optics, history of control systems, the nature of light, color theory, electricity, power distribution systems, automated luminaires, electronic dimmers, scenic projections, and lasers. Safety is stressed throughout.
