The concept for this project is "The Colour Temperature", which is a way to describe the light appearance provided by a light bulb. It is measured in degrees of Kelvin (K) on a scale from 1,000 to 10,000. Typically, Kelvin temperatures for commercial and residential lighting applications fall somewhere on a scale from 2000K to 6500K.
A fascinating subject about something we all use in our homes.
The first single to be released, by 808 Dot Pop was the track Blackbodies.
