Blankslate, No disagreements there. Though i do think it's very helpful to understand subtractive colour mixing, it is a part of the overall picture of how colour works, and it isn't really intuitive knowledge that mixing magenta and yellow makes red with paint. Good catch on the RBY, yes that should be phased out…
Ok, so i just worked my way through the full opponent theory text. I get it now, it's the brains method of decoding the data from the cones, short, medium and long cones. So it's not how the eyes see, but it's how the brain interprets the data from the eyes. This is interesting, lab is still a confusing thing to me in some…
I dont agree that there is a difference between physics and the colour (color) systems we use. Light is at the heart of the additive and subtractive methods of using colour for production. Understanding why the sky is blue and sunsets are red is not confusing the matter. It's important that we know about the physical world…
Haha i actually have Briggsy on my facebook and i sometimes talk to him about colour stuff. Hue value chroma is the only source i can actually point people to without fear of it being incorrect. It's quite frankly awesome in the depth that briggsy has gone into, but he does have a serious problem of verbose writing and…
