The event also received support from the Guangzhou Lighting Society and sponsorship, including technical expertise, from CDN Lighting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The main purpose of the event was not to light up the monumental kind, often found extravagantly lighting up towers, bridges, or castles. Instead, it involved simple experiments to find appeal in the typical, by illuminating scenes buried in daily life. We wanted students to learn not just about adding light, but also about eliminating unnecessary or unpleasant light to create beauty and comfort in the nightscape closest to us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u25a0 DAY 1: June 11<br>Around 30 students, along with LPA and CDN staff and professors, gathered at GAFA\u2019s Art and Light Environment Lab for the opening ceremony.

Mr. Mende expressed strong interest in and endorsement of all three proposals, particularly appreciating their performative approach to creating nighttime scenes. Instructors then offered professional advice to further refine each group\u2019s concept.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Following the proposal presentations, CDN staff provided detailed instruction on equipment usage\u2014including wiring, cable setup, and switch control\u2014and each team proceeded methodically with the construction of their lighting installations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After nightfall, each group moved to one of three locations in Nanting Village to conduct localized lighting tests.

Each team systematically reviewed lamp diffuser production, lighting on\/off procedures, participant movement logistics, lighting sequence logic, and methods to achieve dynamic storytelling effects\u2014ensuring rigorous planning and precise execution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On that day, a typhoon passed through the region. As the teams left the Light Lab to head to their sites, heavy rain suddenly began and some members sought a shelter inside the ancestral hall. Fortunately, conditions improved around 5 p.m., around 3 hours later, allowing the \u201cninjas\u201d to regroup and resume their on-site works. This unexpected weather challenge added another layer of resilience to the project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That late afternoon, the teams arrived at their designated sites and began final preparations. With CDN\u2019s technical team guiding accurate lamp placement and fine-tuning, stable power supply was ensured. The \u201cninjas\u201d carefully confirmed lighting positions and movement paths, rehearsing repeatedly to guarantee the flash mob lighting performance unfolded perfectly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure
