Color and Light

public - created 03/15/05
A place for questions and discussions about color theory and the science of light. The tendrils go everywhere, from the physics of light, to the chemistry of colorants, to the biology of the eye, and the psychology of perception. Ask questions about reproduction of color in computers and photography, or the aesthetics of color in art and architecture. Swim with photons, photoreceptors and phosphors. Debate trichromacy vs. opponency, RGB vs. CMY(K), rods vs. cones, Lab vs. Luv, "color blindness" vs. just being a lousy dresser. Stump the experts. Pontificate on purple.
