    This subject is super interesting for me. I was born with a genetic condition called retinal dystrophy. This is a progressive disease that slowly destroys the cells responsible for detecting both light and colors, which eventually will turn one partially or completelly blind.
    Now the really interesting part that has to do with your video:
    If I see a tree, I see its brown trunk and green leaves against the blue sky. However, if you show me a sheet of paper with these colors, I don't know how to differentiate one from the other, that is, I can see the colors, but only "psychologically" for lack of a better term.
    Visually impaired people, especially those who wasn't born completelly blind, see various types of interesting phenomena. I suggest those interested to look for Charles Bonnet syndrome.
    Anyway, thanks for your attention and sorry for the broken English, I understand it better than I write.

      Hello @@ellasarax, thanks for your kind response!
      I see a "thing" at the point where I should theoretically be completely blind, but according to the studies I've read, my case does not fit Bonnet's syndrome, hence I call it a "thing"... phenomena are difficult to describe when there are no conventional parallels.
      But anyway, I discovered over the years that not seeing affects several physical areas that are not exactly vision, such as, for example, the circadian rhythm. Look for a "low sighted" friend and they will tell you that their sleep is erratic. My day is currently 27 to 28 hours long, and it has been increasing over the years, reflecting the lack of cells that control the reception/perception of light.
      Fun stuff 😜

      @@GabrielPerboni While that sucks for you, that's also super interesting. I've never thought about how gradual loss of vision could affect someone's circadian rhythm. I wonder if blasting your eyes with bright light (without damaging them) when you first wake up could help realign it.

    • @Oscar_Armstrong
      @Oscar_Armstrong Год назад +10

      @@GabrielPerboni It also makes me wonder if those with partial/full vision loss can compensate for a loss of light related circadian rhythms with other circadian rhythms like core body temperature and heart rate, in the same way that loss of sight leads to other senses like sound and smell being heightened. Maybe if you eat at consistent times each day, make sure that you're exposed to cold in the morning and warmth in the afternoon, and do breathing exercises to slow your heart rate before sleep it could help realign your body clock? Idk these are all guesses, but it's fun to think about!

      @catguy2043 9 месяцев назад +7

      Close but backwards. Infrared transmits more heat than any visible colour frequency. Red, being closer to infrared, transmits more heat than does blue.
      It is true that objects that are super hot emit more blue light than cooler objects, but the light* itself is not more warm
      * technically the light emitted *is* warmer and warms objects better, but that's because there is also a larger amount of infrared frequencies emitted as well, not because blue light warms matter more

    Color is sooo so extremely cool and I would encourage anyone intrigued in thinking about color this way to read up on some color science stuff! I’m personally studying it as part of my degree and it is just fascinating. The light and objects and the way they interact are all out there, but you need humans there to actually perceive any of it. The psychological aspect of color is one of the most funky and interesting parts of our perception too. Very well put together video!!
    PS when you mentioned the primary and secondary qualities thing I immediately thought about the fact that we actually have two different metrics for light, one purely objective and the other weighted through a curve for human perception. Again, v cool vid!

    Brilliant! I'm a painter who has been teaching color relativity for decades. It requires quite a shift in perception to overcome color constancy see how colors effect each other, but there are many practical ways of doing this. It begins with disconnecting from the namable object; seeing the visual world as a pattern of flat shapes, (back to the Newtonian scientific approach) and then seeing how those shapes interact (a responsive Goethe approach). One learns to place colors on a relative value scale (black to white), and on a relative saturation scale by comparing all the colors in a motif. Even with all those measurements, each person paints with a different set of colors because all the colors a relative and it all depends on your starting point.

    @Well_Earned_Siesta Год назад +6

    The warm/cold hands in lukewarm water trick is because the way we think about heat and energy. There is no such thing as "cold", there is just greater or lesser amount of energy flow. Heat is always flowing out of the human body. When the outside air temperature is significantly lower than the body, heat/energy flows out quickly. We perceive this rapid heat shedding as "feeling cold", and we usually put on insulating layers to slow down the outward flow. When the temperature is hotter outside of our body, the outward flow of heat slows significantly or can even reverse. We call this "feeling hot".
    The hand in cold water is accelerated in its heat loss rate, and when that same hand is then plunged into lukewarm water ... "lukewarm" is typically close or just below himan body temperature... then the outward flow rate rapidly slows or even reverses, and that hand thus now "feels warm". The inverse happens for the hand that was first submersed in hot water.

    As an artist and art teacher I've noticed that non-artists have a very arduous time learning how to see color and value (darks to lights). They have an associative kind of seeing and tend to apply to a surface what they expect a thing to look like instead of what it actually looks like. It's really interesting. To them all bananas are yellow, all metal is gray, all water is blue, etc. It's a long process to train them out of that type of seeing.

    Good idea about color evolving for more than just to be seen. Organisms that photosynthesis are green because it's the best wavelength to absorb in earth's atmosphere while other colors reflect. In addition evergreen trees are a darker shade of green to help them absorb more heat in the winter which provides more energy to the sounding snow to produce water. Awesome videos 🤙

    Well beyond color, this concept of co-determination between an animal and environment (and any and all forms of life, for that matter) is so difficult to articulate to people who don't come from a biology-focused background. Its actually one of the banes of my existence when interacting with others in STEM fields, because they're all so tunnel visioned in their studies that they tend to be extremely bad at grasping the bigger picture of almost anything! Even in their own fields! I get made fun of (in good humor) for being in such a "soft science" where "everything is always changing and you never know anything for certain" but it drives me crazy because... that's the WORLD we live in. That's how EVERYTHING works!
    I fully understand what Darwin meant when he said "He who understands the baboon would do more for metaphysics than Locke" lmao. I constantly lament the lack of insight or understanding of the natural world that so many great minds have because it holds them back from so much they could have known. If you reject your place as a biological creature shaped by and shaping the environment around you, you will never understand anything fully!

    One of the interesting thing about color perception is to a certain extent you can train yourself to see subtleties within colors and shades as well.
    Here not dark, medium, or light red.
    But rather a coolness or warmth within shades of grey. But it also means, if you work with pixels a lot, you start to tell the difference between solid colors and pixel patterns.
    So I can detect when green has some blue, or yellow has some red. I also prefer working with hex codes.

    The day I had a comprehension about color and how it was experienced through other people was when my friend's dad said he did acid once and claimed he tasted the color purple. I kept asking what it really tasted like. Did it taste like blueberries, grapes, cherries? He said NO; it just tasted like purple. The color purple was what he tasted and couldn't be compared to anything he'd ever tasted. I was in shock trying to wrap my head around this concept.

    Great video! Now that we've got the red=hot/blue=cold system figured out, I'd like to know if any progress has been made lately on working out why shower knobs at hotels are always flipped from how you're used to. It's kind of like the USB plugging thing.

    6:34 how did you manage to pull off the color change effect there? I feel like there’s more than just a hue shift going on there.

    while doing a color study a while back, i noticed that once you desaturate a color, it looks like it's fading into its compliment. likely because two perfect compliments create a grey

    I am a mental health clinician and, in working with clients, particularly with mood disorders, enjoy challenging them to wear colors that flatter them but also elevate their mood. Nuances are helpful.

    Thanks for posting. I did my MA thesis in 1985 on the Newton/Goethe colour controversy and, as quantum physics was discovering at the time, it boiled down to observation versus participation and concluded that you can't have one without the other - but also revealed the bigger question, what is the nature of light?

    I put this on before a nap (no offense, I did come back to watch this while conscious lol) but I was actively drifting into a dream, like I’d say I was almost completely asleep, and you mentioned boards of Canada and my eyes flew open. I watched a video many years ago that mentioned boards of Canada, (part of me feels it was a solar sands video) I listened to them briefly but had since forgotten anything at all about the video and the band name - I only remember one album cover but it’s geogaddi which I didn’t even attempt to describe to google. Anyways, I’ve been waiting for the band name to pop up somewhere even though I’d only ever heard of it in the video and nowhere else since. I think it’s so interesting how I couldn’t have remembered it if I had a gun to my head, but while nearly unconscious hearing the name I instantly recognized it as the thing I’d been looking for.

    I note the speed of the talk on this video, very fast and concise work reflecting a good grasp of the content being said. What is missing though is the sense color’s purpose in language. I agree with Gibson’s approach to emphasize ecology in seeing. So this would easily apply to primates. And with primates seeing fruits we eat. However, colors emerge in languages in limited ways in a given culture reflective of color uses that grow as a culture uses color in new ways. Color words seem to depend upon uses, we see what our community deems important to see as color. So color has a consciousness component if looked at with regard to appearance of color words. So we make color words to jibe with human practices. Or said another way we ‘know’ or are conscious of color by naming the colors. So this says we ‘make’ a color by naming the color. This making knowledge by using naming words is a familiar process of making meaning that parallels purely seeing. The subject of your video on the illusionary faces we see around us or pareidolia.

    I've thought about this for a while and a great understanding came to me when I asked myself "why is water and air transparent?". It's obvious then that we evolved eyes sensitive in the band of frequencies at which both of these media in which we hunt and fish is transparent.

    I feel like there is a definition for colour outside of an observer. That being which wavelengths of light any given material reflects and absorbs. While I agree that perception and colour are intimately linked I do also believe there is an objective way to define colour

  • @Everywhere4
    @Everywhere4 Год назад +1

    If I remember correctly, not certain if I do, Lock himself saw secondary qualities as the power of the object to cause certain perceptions.
    Could this not be interpreted as a ecological account since color depends on the relationship of the object and the perceiver?
