Why is it that whenever someone bring up colors in scientific discussions, there will be someone who mention this color every single time?
>>
is this bait? there are two colours.

It's a spambot, has been going for couple years now I think, lurk bit more next time.

Here's some colors.

Shut up

You couldn't do the proper greeting faggot

I'm finally doing

IS THIS TRUE????

ANSWER ME!

#FF00FF is not the only extra-spectral color in existence, #FFFFFF is also extra-spectral

Why is 00 special
I thoight this was just the psychological color
>>
>>16436128
No
>>
>>16436128
Because there are a lot of people out there that can only manage the most superficial and simplified understanding of most topics.

>>16440660
hex is just rgb in disguise: 0xff00ff is just 0x ff 00 ff
so full red, no green, and full blue
>>
To people who say magenta is special because it's a mix of red and blue or because it's the absence of green.

You're retarded.

Yellow and Cyan are in the same category as magenta because they are also colors we perceive when two colors are triggered in our brain (red+green for yellow, blue+green for cyan), yellow is the absence of blue and cyan is the absence of red.
>>
>>16444033
But we have twice that many green receptors, so magenta is bigger absence.

How can any colors possibly be exist, yeah there are like infinite colors and the spectrum, but why are the colors as they are, the nature of color is crazy, the visualization of green, of blue, of red, of yellow, the first hand experience of these, where do they come from, where does the spirit and essence and actualness of yellowness come from,

Is it entirely dependant on this universes conditions, these biological conditions, or is yellowness an eternal concept, an eternal staple of eternal potentials,

The universe could have maybe only allowed 12 colors eternally

But instead it happened to, besides claims of flowers and butterfly wings or what have you, after thousands of years of human tech advance, the synthesis of millions of colors

Let's say we capture and showcase all colors we can, are there a million more we are missing?
Ones impossible in this universe but possible in the next?
Might a universe possiblly exist and possess every color but never a blue?

I remember I might have been 10 or so the first time on maybe windows 97 seeing that crystal bright aqua is it Robbins egg electric teal blue on MS paint, blew my mind, immediately was struck with the buzzing glow seduction of a Sci fi futurism.
And then those color wheels you can drag the mouse around to any color and hue. Also there was an architecture draftsman table in the basement of the house we moved into, probably was 4 or younger at that time and that too had like a kind of clear Gatorade dark glacier blue plastic slide holder thing and this drafting table the coolness of that color on this odd relic spoke to me and welcomed me, invited me, comforted me, to participate in such a cool world of cool things and potentials. Shortly after my parents got rid of that table.

What's the deal with that additive or subtractive light stuff, difference between white light, adding light to make colors vs adding pigments to make colors? Now I recall it's not that interesting,
>>
>>16444905
I'm sorry to hear you got raped by an architect living in your basement.

Even when you combine Red and Blue together at equal intensity, you can't match Green's luminosity
>>
>>16436128
its a cool color
>>
>>16445508
>Even when you combine Red and Blue together at equal intensity, you can't match Green's luminosity
What determines luminosity? It's case by case basis depending on source
>>
>>16447734
Experiment with RGB on your computer or phone and tell me if Magenta (red and blue at full intensity) has the same luminosity as Green at full intensity
>>
>>16449054
I don't know what luminosity means? If it's brightness, there are dark greens and bright greens
>>
>>16449861
You are obviously not a luminous individual if you have to ask these kinds of questions.

the only people who are retarded are pseuds that genuinely believe color=wavelength
>>
>>16450103
You're a retard
White is extraspectral
Magenta is extraspectral
And there's nothing you can do about it
You can only continue being a retard

>color=wavelength
Don't all animals experience wave length to be the same color?

Wouldn't all animals see a red flower as we know of red?
If not, if they see a different color, the atoms and flower and wave length of light are the control, what in the mind what be so different as variable.

Implying it is the interaction of light with a certain something a certain way that produces the experience of color
>>
>it's just white without green
yellow is white without blue
cyan is white without red
magenta is nothing special in that regard

that was literally what I was talking about
color is brains interpretation of signals sent by the retina
you could see color with zero waves entering your eyes, just stimulate optical nerve accordingly
if you modified someones retina so that red receptors got triggered by shorter blue wavelenght then he would see all blues as red
and all color perception is by definition 100% subjective
