๐ข Announcing the launch of the official website for the Art of Darkness project! ๐ https://artofdarkness.eu
As the lead on communications for this #HorizonEurope project, LUCI is proud to support a growing conversation on how balancing lighting with well-designed darkness can enrich urban cultural heritage and enable sustainable, artistic, and socially meaningful night-time experiences.
The website is now live โ beautifully crafted by Christophe Bordes and Nicolas Huguet โ and serves as the projectโs central platform for:
โจ Sharing research and pilot trials across five European cities
๐ค Fostering collaboration between cities, researchers, designers, and cultural stakeholders
๐ Providing resources, updates, and insights

โIn order to fully understand how light pollution affects our world, we need to know how much of it is in which places. Divergent results from different measurement methods present some tension, but recent research suggests a way forward.

โWalking through neighborhoods, volunteers identified sources of light pollutionโฆ
Surprisingly, streetlights only made up 10.3% of all the light sources. Many (48.2%) were illuminated private windows, and commercial windows added another 7.4%. Other source types made up the remaining 18%, including illuminated signs, floodlights, facade illuminations, video screens, decorative lights, and illuminated house numbers and door bells.โ

๐ข Today, LightingEurope publishes a position paper calling on EU policymakers to introduce a harmonised set of rules for regulating Artificial Light at Night (ALAN).
ALAN plays a crucial role in our daily lives, and well-designed installations using quality products and control systems are fundamental to creating suitable outdoor environments. When designing any lighting application, the effect on the natural environment, including fauna and flora, must be considered, as well as the effects of obtrusive lighting, sky glow, and light nuisance. We need to consider the balance between human needs and environmental concerns in a consistent and effective set of rules.
๐ก When creating the specifications for a new lighting system, sufficient consideration should be given to the purpose of the lighting system to be installed, so that:
๐น All light should have a clear purpose.
๐น Light is directed only to where itโs needed.
๐น Light is not brighter than necessary.
๐น Light is adapted to suit the task activities or turned off when not required.
๐ Read our position paper for more details โฌ๏ธ
Would you like to know more about our position? Get in touch with our Director Marion Ebel and Policy Officer Simon Wessels.

AI is reshaping research, from drafting proposals and academic CVs to automating parts of peer review and assessment. With efforts to reform research assessment in motion, Elizabeth Gadd and Nick Jennings explore how AI is both exacerbating the need for reform and offering potential for delivering reformed assessment mechanisms.

Antivaccine groups have claimed that their misinformation and lies should be protected by the First Amendment. It appears that the cost of such posts is clearly that of being called out by scientists and real doctors. And to be silenced by social media platforms for such. This is not censorship: it simply is making that the scientific truth prevails over the lies. At the end of the day, these antivaccine groups have tried to see their lies protected by free speech, but free speech is never free from the science, the facts and he truth. Therefore, it is totally normal that SCOTUS decided to not take their lawsuitโฆ

We are pleased to announce the launch of a new policy brief (https://lnkd.in/eV-xpT2u) developed by the PLAN-B Project and the AquaPLAN project.
Titled Restoring the Night, the brief builds on the 2023 European Light Pollution Manifesto (https://lnkd.in/ewNjNBnx) and outlines a strategic framework to address artificial light at night (#ALAN) as an emerging environmental issue.
๐๐๐ฒ ๐๐๐๐ญ๐ฌ:
โพ 99% of Europeโs population and biodiversity live under light-polluted skies
โพ 30% of vertebrates and over 60% of invertebrates are nocturnal
โพ Light pollution contributes to an estimated $3.4 trillion in annual lost ecosystem service value globally
The brief calls for action through 10 ๐ค๐๐ฒ ๐ซ๐๐๐จ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐๐ง๐๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง๐ฌ, including:
โพ Recognising light pollution as environmental pollution
โพ Defining ecological limits for ALAN
โพ Establishing a coherent, harmonised EU regulatory framework
โพ Requiring monitoring, transparency, and data sharing
โพ Supporting education, awareness, and international cooperation
Since its launch in April, our light pollution policy campaign (https://lnkd.in/dE-76cWC) has received support from organisations including Buglife, the Universitร di Pisa, the Tyrolean Environmental Ombuds Office, and the Royal Astronomical Society, as well as individuals from over 40 countries.
We invite institutions, experts, and individuals to:
โพ Share the policy brief
โพ Join national and regional implementation efforts
โพ Support the campaign as an individual or organisation (sign the form: https://lnkd.in/dE-76cWC or contact us to get an official Support Letter)
โพ Help disseminate and translate the brief

We believe that with coordinated action, strong policy, and public engagement, we can ensure that artificial light is used responsibly, purposefully, and within ecological limits.
We thank everyone who was involved with us in developing the policy brief and policy action: Yana Yakushina, Professor Mike Wood, Alejandro Sanchez de Miguel, Alexandre Nascimento, Graeme Sherriff, Michael Lomas PhD, Reinhard A. Klenke, Elena Maggi, DarkSky, LightingEurope, and many others!

NEW PAPER: The Theory of Economic Complexity
The Economic Complexity Index or ECI is a widely used empirical tool with an unclear theoretical basis. In this paper, we change that by formally deriving ECI for several production functions and showing what it really does.
In a single-factor model, ECI separates economies that are better or worse endowed with the factor. In a model with many factors, ECI tells us which economies have a higher probability of being endowed with many of them--regardless of what these factors are.
The idea that you can measure the combined presence of economic factorsโno matter how they are defined--is an interesting departure in thinking. It provides a theoretical basis for the use of complexity measures in economic development. In the paper, we show this property is robust to substantial levels of noise and applies to other production functions, as long as they are not multiplicatively separable.
We also show that our model explains differences in network structure, like those observed between the product space (a network with a core and a periphery) and the research space (which is shaped as a ring). In the product space, the core-periphery structure tells us that capabilities are correlated across countries (e.g. Singapore scores high across all capabilities and Mali scores low across all of them). In the case of the research space, the ring structure is given by the fact that the capabilities of each field are only similar to those of a few neighboring fields.
Our main model is a generalization of Kremerโs O-Ring model with factors that can be made specific to each economy and activity. In this model, the output of an economy in an activity is proportional to the probability that it is not missing the factors that the activity requires. This allows us to easily generate output matrices as large as those observed in the empirical literature and calculate their ECI. We also used this opportunity to embed this model into a short-run equilibrium framework showing that prices increase concavely with the complexity of a product and that economies should converge to the wages of others with similar levels of complexity.
This is one of the most fun papers that I have worked in a long time. If you want to geek out with the mathematical foundations of economic complexity theory, please give it a read.
