    Are you serious, they did not use proper filters to block the really harmful UV? One can only hope that they get sued to shit.

      It’s not that they didn’t block UV, it’s that they installed UV lights in the DJ booth because it would “look cool”.

      It was a purposeful choice, and no one stopped to think about why it was a bad idea. Which is totally on brand for people running a convention based around NFTs.

      They used the wrong type of bulb. Ordinarily the bulb will be made of a UV blocking glass, and not be quartz based. I think? So it’s not usually the shroud that stops UV except in cases of Halogen bulbs. These would be CFL without any shield except perhaps a cage to protect against things thrown.
