    For anyone wondering, the 4th cone that some women can see is yellow. You can't test for it using a screen since most screens project images using RGB light, so it has to be tested for in person.
    I gotta say though, there's nothing like being in an art class and everyone talking about how deep and pure red something was when it was clearly yellow orange to me. I got a color test done later to see if I was missing any cones and got a 100% on all colors, so I definitely wasn't missing something. I later found out that some women can see more yellow than others because they have cones for it, and it all fell into place.

    actually the color wheel is not a description of the physics of light but how our visual neural nets work. in physics, color isn't circular but linear. after blue/violet comes ultra violet etc. until gamma rays and before red theres infrared etc. until radio waves and other super low frequencies. unlike in our vision, there is no purple and magenta. these are red and blue light waves hitting our eyes at the same time. on the color wheel, it's the colours between red and blue, which don't exist physically. there is no complementary color in physics, just in our brain.

      Remember that colour vision is a neural process, not really much of a physical one. A single wavelength hitting our eyes stimulates each receptor by a proportion based on the physics of the photoreceptor molecules, but RBG works by replacing that physics determinant of the activity of each cell by creating a system where each cone can be stimulated to any degree based on the brightness of each colour of pixel.
      To your brain, there’s no difference between a 630 nm photon hitting your eye at the same time in the same region as a 532 nm photon and two 580 nm photons hitting your eyes in those same locations. The stimulation effect on your eyes are the same more or less, most of the time.

      goldenrod is the name of the flower than grows with the purple flower, so I guess it was in his mind-gold in colour terms doesn't have to be metallic or shiny we are just a lot more familiar with the metal colour these days, its a certain shade of yellow, particularly if shiny but not necessarily e.g. Goldenrod, fields of gold, golden retriever, Goldilocks, golden fry

      @AmaraJordanMusic 2 года назад +6

      Gold, when not metallic, tends to be a range in or around the yellow family. It has a bit of brown to it, making it a bit less vibrant and brassier, reminiscent of something metallic, even without the metallic sheen. Since I’m an editor, I’d have preferred more use of the term “golden,” rather than “gold,” for precisely the idea behind your comment. It’s more lexically vague than it has to be, I think. 🤷🏻‍♀️
      I have to suppose he mentions its wavelength range because of his later discussion of It’s complimentary nature to purple, because, well, all kinds of colors have their own little niches, but I was puzzled why it got called out at all at first, and then the whole gold/golden thing happened. Gah! 😅

  • @ecchikitty1395
    @ecchikitty1395 2 года назад +41

    The human retina can actually detect even shorter wavelengths, down to about 300, which is firmly in the 'UV' range. It's the lens of the eye that absorbs these wavelengths that makes them invisible to most people. However, people without natural lens in their eyes, and a rare few with slightly different makeup of lens, can see UV light.
    Some artists have described the color as a white-blue, others as black-purple. It looks like UV, any unless you're one of the few who can see it, it can't really be accurately described.

      Yes! The painter Monet actually developed cataracts and had the lens of one of his eyes removed so he could see better, which gave him the ability to see UV light! You can actually see this in his later paintings, because of how much purple and blue he used.

    Not only did my eyes not tire when focusing on the colors, I didn’t see an afterimage at all on both tests. I do see red and green just fine. Does this have to do with the device and me being in the dark? Hopefully it doesn’t signify a problem. I (think) I have normal color vision and (know) I have 20/20 sight range. I saw a handful of other comments saying the same, so maybe it’s the device/environment.

      It is almost genetically impossible for men to be tetrachromats due to us only having one X chromosome.

    I have excellent color vision for a man. I can pinpoint a greater variety of reds, greens, and yellows, than most men I know. Even in the design field.
    However, I can never claim to be tetrachromtic because I do not have the chromosomes for it. It just means I have no perceptable color blindness.
    The reason women can be tetrachromtic is because they have two X chromosomes. Each chromosome determines the blue and green cones. However, if the green cones determined by one of the X chromosomes is "defective", the green may be more "yellow" when compared to the other one. That is why tetrochramtic women often see more yellow wavelengths then non-tetrachromtic people. If they are perceptive to thier tetrachromacy, they can see and point out far more shades of yellow, red, and green than I can.
    Essentially, the same defect which causes colorblindness in men gives women the ability to see more color do to have two sets of blue and green cones.

      Yeah I was surprised he didn't go into the link between red-green color vision anomalies in men and tetrachromacy in related women.

    No matter how many times I hear nothing actually has color my brain cannot compute. It seems unbelievable so I stop trying to figure it out. Almost the same feeling as when thinking about death (color is THAT dramatic 😂)

    Is something wrong with my eyes? I watched and re watched each optical illusion in this video multiple times... But I never saw them the way I should have.

    1:10 My mans right here could’ve played the most wild prank on us by saying the color and putting a different color on the screen a lot of us would be like “wtf I’m colorblind”🤣
