    When I was in 4th grade 15 years ago I had a shirt that changed while I was outside, man did I think it was cool. A classmate asked if I had changed because she was sure I had a black & white on me earlier today and not a vibrant colorful one. Her jaw dropped when I showed her that it had changed before going out again, it was awesome

      @spencerwarren8302 Год назад +85

      There is a reason! You ever tried describing color to a blind person? That's what those ads are doing. They're trying to describe a smell using only visuals. It's basically impossible to do that though so the ad instead tries to convince you it's so cool you just have to experience it yourself. There isn't really a better alternative unfortunately, as an actual description of the smell would be a lot less enticing.

    • @666_cthulhu
      @666_cthulhu Год назад

      yeah that’s how i knew the plain white-beige clothes at that fashion show weren’t just whitish for demonstration purposes - it’s a limitation. my sibling and i made bracelets out of color-changing pony beads at a nearby nature reserve when we were little and they were always the same cloudy/slightly translucent white color. it’s a cute little gimmick for kids and special events, but i definitely don’t expect to see a fashion revolution just because of these photochromic dyes. they’re just too limited imo ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
      although i did see a really cool idea for them in another comment: wedding dresses that stay white during an indoor ceremony, then change color during an outdoor reception or one w/ blacklights. it would be a fun party trick in the moment, and even after the dye stops working, you’d still be left with a traditional white dress to keep with your other sentimental items, pass on to your kids, or give to some other bride-to-be who either can’t or doesn’t want to drop thousands of dollars on a garment they’ll only use once XD

    You can layer photochromic dyes, so you have a dark colour as base and then in sunlight the previously transparent top layer changes to another colour, hiding the underlying layer. Does require a transparent top layer though, so its not exactly going to become cheaper like that. But it should be possible to make some non-drab base layer. Once the interest in the drab-fab colour change dies down enough I suppose.

    It lurks in the shadows,
    out of His spotlight,
    His view.
    He dances on the stage,
    weaving a web of lies.
    But you must venture beyond the cage,
    and find where It cries.
    Find the truth.

    I remember when I was younger, I had this color changing nail polish that went from silver to hot pink and I thought it was the coolest thing ever. While it took a while to change (like 5-10 minutes), I never noticed it stop changing before I chipped it all off.

    think of a future where you can buy one dress for multiple occasions, like if your out in the sun you have a pretty summer dress, and when in a dark night club or bar, you have a cool vibrant dress and didn't have to change.

    I remember when I was young (like, 8 or so?), we got some clothes that reacted when you got them wet with cold water. I believe that it was blue by default, but turned pinkish when wet, but I might have it backwards. It was neat at first, but lost the novelty quickly. Then, at some point it stopped working. Although, with that, it at least stayed colorful after, as opposed to the photochromatic dyes.

    think when combined/woven in with regular fabric this can be pretty cool as the regular fabric can be any accessible dye while the beige from the UV reactive fibers could be used as a special kind of hidden message on the clothes or a branding.. especially in the clubscene or rave scene

      Earlier this year I bought a cute Axolotl shirt that has the Axolotl change color (turns purple-ish) while in the sun. Could see them making other animals like a chameleon or even normal animals that all blend together while neutral but that each pop out once out in the sun. Like a "spot the hidden animals" style shirt that shows the answers once you go out

    I love when the fashion industry evolves. My question here would be... how do you wash them appropriately? Like, as a base they're white and cream and beige. If they get stained I'm assuming you can't use bleach on them lol
    MatPat, please do an episode on outfit swaps! Not necessarily like in those circus/magic/etc shows. I remember once seeing a skirt a girl made for the premiere of the Batman vs Superman movie where it started off with one, she twirled and it changed to the next, and finally twirled again and it became Wonder Woman themed. It was very cool and learning the "science" behind those techniques might be interesting to cover!
