Hi and welcome to this episode, an ecology event around the impacts of light at night featuring Dr. Emily Fobert who is a research fellow in the Fishery Science and Biosciences Department of the University of Melbourne. I've had the pleasure of meeting Emily, who did a fantastic talk live for me a couple of years ago and was one of our favorite speakers at the event. She has an interesting perception of life through the marine and freshwater environment and put this to good use with a research piece of work that she did on our little friend Nemo. Now know you've hit on luck when you're getting tweeted and repeated and on every form of media when your research has developed so much that everybody's talking about it. And that's exactly what happened with the work that she did on the impacts of light at night on the clownfish. Join me and Emily as we discuss this and get an insight into her research. As always at the end, if you have any questions, please email us at marnie@darkskytraveller.com.au or you can see her web page at the University of Melbourne.

| 2/11/22 | A Conversation with Jackson Stigwood - Lighting Designer | Dark Sky ConversationsS03E06 Jackson Stigwood – Lighting Designer Jackson StigwoodBDes, MArch, Tech IES, Assoc. IALDJackson is the founding director of A Billion Suns. He moved into lighting architecture and design in 2008, working on a range of projects in Australia, Asia, the Middle East and Europe. He takes a keen interest in conducting lighting research at both macro and micro scales in the built and urban environment. The practice uses this research to understand key issues that need to be addressed as well as highlighting design opportunities for future development.Since 2015 Jackson has been an active member and coordinator of the Victorian chapter of the International Association of Lighting Designers (IALD). In 2019 he began the podcast series Light, Cities and Architecture, as a platform to provide lighting education to the community whilst raising awareness of the lighting design profession. In 2020 he launched the Cri Awards, a publicly funded initiative which seeks to highlight, design, and implement positive community change to awfully lit environments within our cities. He firmly believes that whilst we push the design boundaries at the top of the lighting industry, we must also be consciously aware and making improvements to the bottom line within our cities.jackson@abillionsuns.com.auYouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHT4dzN4yOIhaTa2916MH9QMarnie Ogg talks with some of the brightest minds about light pollution and ways to protect our night skies.For more details, visit the Dark Sky website: https://www.darkskytraveller.com.au/podcastSubscribe, rate and review at Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify or all good podcast apps.Stream on demand from https://www.bitesz.com/show/dark-sky-conversations/ For more podcasts visit our HQ: https://bitesz.com | 46m 22s | ||||||
| 2/10/22 | Professor Clive Ruggles talks Archaeoastronomy | Dark Sky ConversationsS03E05 Professor Clive RugglesJoin Professor Clive Ruggles as a special guest from this recent Dark Sky Aus webinar as he discusses latest research in a subject that’s close to his heart and in which he’s a world authority, Archaeoastronomy.Archaeoastronomy (also spelled archeoastronomy) is the interdisciplinary or multidisciplinary study of how people in the past "have understood the phenomena in the sky, how they used these phenomena and what role the sky played in their cultures". Clive Ruggles argues it is misleading to consider archaeoastronomy to be the study of ancient astronomy, as modern astronomy is a scientific discipline, while archaeoastronomy considers symbolically rich cultural interpretations of phenomena in the sky by other cultures. It is often twinned with ethnoastronomy, the anthropological study of skywatching in contemporary societies. Archaeoastronomy is also closely associated with historical astronomy, the use of historical records of heavenly events to answer astronomical problems and the history of astronomy, which uses written records to evaluate past astronomical practice.

| 10/7/20 |  Dark Skies over Sark with Ada Blair | My guest today, Ada Blair - a counsellor and psychotherapist at the University of Edinburgh. Author of ‘An Exploration of the Role that the Night Sky Plays in the lives of the Dark Sky Island Community of Sark’, her research, conducted on Sark in 2014, addresses the 'missing sky' factor within ecopsychology and health and environmental psychology. Intuitive inquiry is employed to explore the following themes: human desire to see the night sky, commercialisation of this desire through astronomical tourism, the nature of nature, fear of the dark, and nature and wellbeing.Research findings show skywatching facilitating family/community connections and improving wellbeing, the transmission of sky stories, childhood sky memories, a fearlessness of the dark and the phenomenon on moonless nights of an absent horizon, whereby sky and land appear as one.For more, visit:An Exploration of the Role that the Night Sky Plays in the Lives of the Dark Sky Island Community of SarkSark in the DarkMarnie Ogg is talking to some of the brightest minds in their field, about the topic of light pollution and ways to protect our night skies.For more information about the Unihedron range, visit their website at http://unihedron.com/ Dark Sky Conversations Website: https://www.darkskytraveller.com.au/podcast and www.bitesz.com/darkskyconversations Email Marnie at podcast@darkskytraveller.com.au Subscribe, rate, and review at Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Spotify, or any good podcast app.#astronomy #science #light #lightpollution #darkskies #darksky See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information. | 48m 34s | ||||||
