How do you distinguish between "hot pink", "shocking pink", "magenta" and "fuchsia" in this context?
>>
>skin = pink
>hair = hot pink
>dress = magenta
>waistband = purple
>>
>>17005960
you don't, they're all exactly the same color, only nerds say otherwise
>>
bit disingenuous to claim a visual depth affect via shading is the same as different colors, even if the effect technically requires different colors,
but I know OP is inquiring about some odd, very strange, situation where she begins to ask him about the different colors of pink as a shit test

you're all weird as fuck here

Muhhhhgenta is NOT a real colour
>>
>>17005993
color is a psychovisual phenomenon
color is not an intrinsic property of matter or energy that can be measured
>>
>>17005997
But those psychovisual phenomena themselves have physical correlates, yes? A certain amount of x and y wavelength at _ brightness. I get there is bias in what will be perceived due to environment and just general associations, but it can be said that a certain material, when shined on by a certain amount/type light under certain conditions, will appear as a certain color due to the intrinsic properties of that material reflecting and absorbing light?

RED GREEN BLUE are the only real colors, they're the basic rods of our eyes, get educated
>>
>>17005960
doesnt matter, none of this matters. stop calling colors shit like "Neptune's blue" and start defining them by hue instead
>>
People still don't know whether magenta belong to the family of purples or the family of reds up to this day, incredible

use your monkey mind
>>
>>17006006
consider that cones can become fatigued from constant stimulation and change a person's perception of colors, even if the spectral content of a light stimulus is identical before and after such fatigue
that's how you get "impossible colors"
>>
>>17006006
also consider metamers, which are different spectra that have the same perceived color
this is unavoidable, as color vision in humans maps an uncountably infinite degrees of freedom to just 3

Fuchsia -> italian woman.
Magenta -> homosexual man.
Shocking/hot pink -> underage b&
