Lighting Designer Marsha Stern started out lighting for discos in the 1970s before transitioning into architectural and architainment lighting projects in the 90s. She has a podcast, Heartbeat of the Dance Floor® that looks back fondly on the glory days of disco. In episode #12, Stern has assembled a lighting design panel to discuss lighting in those early days. Here is the video replay of A Lighting Panel with Special Guests Ken Billington, Jason Kantrowitz, (KB Associates / The Red Parrot), Anne Militello (Vortex Lighting / California Institute of the Arts), and Paul Gregory (Focus Lighting / Saturday Night Fever dance floor):
