Musings from a Lighting Designer

Scunthorpe is experimenting with a very unusual and inventive way to tackle anti-social behaviour in the city centre. The aim is to scare away the troublesome youths by bathing the problem areas in pink light! This is apparently the best colour of light to highlight pimples and blemishes. It is hoped that the troublemakers will be so conerned about how they look while causing trouble that they will search out areas bathed in a more flattering light that hides, rather than emphasises, their skin condition!
