Light

Light is electromagnetic radiation within a certain portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. The word usually refers to visible light, which is visible to the human eye and is responsible for the sense of sight. Visible light is usually defined as having wavelengths in the range of 400–700 nanometres (nm), or 4.00 × 10⁻⁷ to 7.00 × 10⁻⁷ m, between the infrared (with longer wavelengths) and the ultraviolet (with shorter wavelengths). This wavelength means a frequency range of roughly 430–750 terahertz (THz).

The main source of light on Earth is the Sun. Sunlight provides the energy that green plants use to create sugars mostly in the form of starches, which release energy into the living things that digest them. This process of photosynthesis provides virtually all the energy used by living things. Historically, another important source of light for humans has been fire, from ancient campfires to modern kerosene lamps. With the development of electric lights and power systems, electric lighting has effectively replaced firelight. Some species of animals generate their own light, a process called bioluminescence. For example, fireflies use light to locate mates, and vampire squids use it to hide themselves from prey.

Summer Madness

Summer Madness is Ireland's largest Christian festival. It usually takes place over the first weekend in July at the Glenarm Castle, Ballymena.

Origins

The festival was commissioned nearly twenty years ago by the Church of Ireland Youth Department. It started out first at Castle Archdale, Lisnarick, County Fermanagh, then held in Gosford Forest Park, County Armagh, but due to the foot-and-mouth crisis in 2001, the festival relocated to the King's Hall, where it has remained until 2011. It has since moved to the Glenarm Castle for the 2012 festival.

Target audience

The festival is aimed at young people, and consistently targets those aged 15–25, and also caters for ages 5–11. The festival generally attracts around 5000 visitors a year, and many of these choose to camp on site.
