Serg,
When brilliance is discussed mainly what is discussed is static contrast brilliance.
There are other types of brilliance.
The biggest flaw in static contrast brilliance is that it does not tell you if the leakage or obstruction is hard or soft.
hard: does go away with small amounts of tilt or off axis lighting
soft: goes away with small amounts of tilt or off axis lighting.
I am working on looking into the effects of secondary lighting.
In my opinion so far, you have it backwards:
not:
Secondary light sources and movement create Brilliance, Primary light sources and movement create Scintillation
but:
Secondary light sources and movement create Scintillation, Primary light sources and movement create Brilliance
Primary light sources tend to be fairly flat in the real world, even outside in sunlight.
Flat light creates brilliance.
Karl,
1) Lamp, sun are primary light sources. Wall, ceiling are secondary light sources.
2) "I know most of you can not be agree with me, and I will not even try to proof my point of view"
