This chapter follows Carlos from her time as a graduate student in the Columbia-Princeton Electronic Music Center to her early professional career as a recording engineer with Gotham Studios. At Columbia, she studied with electronic music pioneers Vladimir Ussachevsky and Milton Babbitt, learning to compose music with magnetic tape and the RCA Mark II Synthesizer. Carlos met Robert Moog for the first time in 1964 at the Audio Engineering Society convention. They worked together as Moog developed modules for 900-series analog synthesizer. Carlos also began seeing Dr. Harry Benjamin, author of The Transsexual Phenomenon, in his office in New York.

Thirty of the most prominent men in American mechanical industry attended that first meeting of ASME founders in the New York editorial offices of American Machinist on 16 February 1880. They chose as chairman the brilliant consultant to the American Bessemer Steel Association, Alexander Lyman Holley, and, characteristically, he provided a focus for the gathering, outlining both the intellectual boundaries of the mechanical engineering profession and the advantages to be derived from association. All the steps necessary to establish a new engineering society were taken at that meeting. It generated a membership list, committees to nominate officers and to draft by-laws, and scheduled a formal organizational meeting for 7 April in the Stevens Institute auditorium to ratify these measures. The number of those interested in the project grew over the next two months. About 80 men attended the second meeting, which among other things, established for years to come the exclusively masculine character of the Society.

The work is devoted to development of a smart lighting system that is able to change correlated colour temperature and consists of tunable 4-components RGBW clusters controlled via three channels. It is shown that fixing a ratio between the intensities of white and red LEDs at a level of 100:9 enables obtaining high values of colour rendering in a wide range of correlated colour temperatures. A control of 3 from 4 channels simplifies the system. The influence of the red LED on CRI and luminous efficiency is analysed. Full Text: PDF References:J. Gooley, S. Rajaratnam, G. Brainard, R.
