Default Connecting knob and tube to conduit

Hi,

A bedroom circuit in our house is still using knob and tube. The
house was built in the late 1940's. I want to install a ceiling light
in the closet and run it from the original light. How do I connect my
conduit (romex?) to the knob and tube? Its about a 8 foot run of
wire to the new ceiling light.

Do I splice the positive from the conduit onto the black wire? What
do I attached the negative to? I presume I need to attach it to the
wire that is connected to the knob thingys. Help!

Thanks.
