IMPORTANT NOTE:
If your display has a dynamic backlight, the color of the square may in fact be changing along with the average image brightness. I underestimated how common this is so I didn't mention it. So, if you're seeing it change - that wasn't me! Those colors in the video file are identical.
And, just so's ya know, there are indeed many browns and not all of them are necessarily derived from orange. As you saw, the Pantone 448C is much more like a very dark yellow. But, to me, the classic *_brown_* is definitely a descendant of orange.
And don't get me started on beige!
I hate to say it, but your jacket isn't a million miles from 448C :/
Diversion: Salmon is the beige of fish. Can't pick a paint colour? Use beige. Can't decide what fish to order? Get salmon. Now salmon as a colour... that's a bold choice.
You know, you talk and showed a many examples of those magnetic tapes, video tapes, cassette tapes, reel to reel tapes. I think you are suffering from Tape worm disease with this fascination for brown.
Duh... beige is just light brown. So beige = orange. ;^)
Just wanna say, at 8:15 all I can see is brown. Sure its an orangey brown, but so much darker than any color id describe as orange. Also when the background switches back and forth it doesnt really change in color at all. This video is really interesting to me, hopefully im not color blind lol especially since im a painter. I think if you spend enough time paying attention to colors, you can see how much red, green, or even blue is in them. Its kinda like looking at color temperature or color balance.
"Hey, what's your eye color?"
" Uhh... *_c o n t e x t u a l o r a n g e_* "

Well, that's not half-wrong.
My mother's eyes are so bright brown, that they look orange when they're in the light.
Likewise, my eyes come off almost a cyan colour in the light, when they're in-fact green.
And, my father has boring blue. Nothing interesting there

So does that mean Trump is just a really bright skinned "black" man?
Actualy black people with hella dark skin are more on a red hue, as a digital artist it was hell for me to figure out the proper hue so it looks normal and not borderline racist caricature
Skin colour must be a mix of orange and pink with different brightness.
Your demonstration with the colour wheel at 14:00 is by far the best explanation of how language impacts our perception of colour I've ever seen.
This is 100% accurate for russian language too
oooooo the sapir whorf hypothesis is real oooooo language shapes our mind oooooo
But we have common name for light blue color
@@user-iy8eg3yr1n what is it
No it isn't. People can still see and perceive brown even if they didn't have a word for it, they would just be calling it "the color of coffee" or dark-orange or some other word. Language doesn't change how your eyes see things, it only changes how you think about the thing, but not to the extent that it's impossible to change the way you think about things. Hence why you can learn new languages and new ways to think. This is why linguistic determinism is complete bogus, but linguistic relativism (not the same thing, btw) is sorta correct-ish in a milder sense.
People are still able to perceive the colors even if there are not separate terms for them. But I would go farther and say that *we can recognize that two different colors are different even if they are called the same thing* and that *individuals can decide when a color is distinct at any moment in time.* This is what allows us to determine that two different brightnesses of light orange are in fact different, even if they are both light orange!
Showing that colors have different categorizations or names across different languages does not prove people perceive these colors differently or that they cannot think up their own categorizations for colors. This is the biggest flaw with those who try to use color as an example of linguistic relativity. Linguistic relativity can be demonstrated in other ways, just not this one.
I was lighting a white wall with RGB lights for a client and they wanted it to be brown (their brand color). It was very difficult to explain to them why it wasn't possible...

The aging wheels cameo caught me extremely off guard but I love both of your channels!
I love that you talked about real paint mixing compared to light displays, because paint mixing works better with yellow cyan and magenta as primaries, and I always thought it was interesting how digital displays use red green and blue. Its the opposite to what I was taught as an artist.
Yeah, magenta and blue make a way better purple than red and blue
Some people: wait brown is just darker Orange?
Artist's : *always has been*
Omg 😂😂 I relized this just now
Wait normal ppl dont know dis?
you mean non-digital artists don’t know this already????
As a digital artist on the color picker you have to go to orange and then darken it to get brown so I suppose its more common knowledge then someone who doesn't do that.
I mean, I'm not a digital artist, but I kinda figured it out myself when I was mixing paint as a kid. I just thought "What can make brown? I'm pretty sure it's orange and black", not to mention that I have a slightly more than average sense of colour (I guess)
as a colorblind guy who's got brown hair, the Revelation that brown is just orange, but darker, has actually rocked my world.
same man, same.
Can you describe that at all? Does it help you visualize what orange might look like?
@@noahandrews628 no
I’m also color blind so next time I confused orange and brown... technically I’m not though 😂
Who told you you had brown hair?
I've been a color technician using dyes and pigments for a decade and am very familiar with subtractive color.
It was fun to learn more about additive color! Fun fact, with subtractive color, we can achieve a brown out of any two colors that are opposite on the color wheel, like green and red, or orange and purple.
Depending on the strength of the pigment, there is some perfect ratio of the two colors that will achieve some variation of brown.
Cpnsidering orange as we did in the video, I would probably have added just a touch of green to neutralize the redness of the orange. If that shifts me into too much of a yellow space, you could add a very small amount of red (or more orange) to shift it back into a true brown.
I wrote a editorial about the color pink and how I was annoyed by it's unclear categorization for English class once. I mentioned that the only majorly recognized colors that are values of pure colors are pink and brown(which you mentioned in the video.) It's really surprising how much there can be to talk about a single color.
Isn't that just because brown and pink are both very common in nature? Pink skin on humans and brown tree trunks / grass. We create words in order to describe natural phenomenon, so our words reflect what we see. Even our eyes do not detect pure color, so every color is based on our perception of reality.
What's interesting is that in other languages that's not the case necessarily. In Italian there's a distinction between "blu" and "azzurro", which is really difficult to grasp for a student of Italian like me. My German speaker brain just cannot comprehend that. I cannot show you the difference without a picture, but if you want to you can just google "azzurro blu difference" :)
@@samplesample7178 And in Russian, the colors that we just call "light blue" and "dark blue" are considered two distinct colors: "goluboy" and "siniy" respectively.

Ha yes a fellow intellectual
When painting, if you combine any complimentary colors (blue w/ orange, red w/ green or yellow w/ purple) you’ll get great variations of brown ❤️
because you are mixing the primary colours (of the real world, not RGB): red, blue and yellow to some decree, brown is basically every colour mixed.
RGB is light @@S7i7mon
interestingly, if you mix ideal complementary colors, you _should_ get grey, not brown, but pigments in the real world are rarely perfect colors.

I was never a fan of brown, especially when I was a kid. When I painted in preschool I was a fan of all colors but always got frustrated whenever I try to come up with a new color combination, but always got brown whenever I mixed three colors. Great video btw
I appreciate this video, and you have opened my eyes to some RGB weirdness that I have wondered about. I've spent decades working with print and mixing inks, and wanted to share regarding your paint mixing demo. Orange and black paints make brown not because you are changing the contrast around the orange, but because there is almost no true black pigment available. What we call black paint is extremely dark blue. Orange is the combo of red and yellow, so mixing super dark blue into it will create brown. I have enjoyed watching your videos. Thanks for putting so much informative content out there.

Does this mean my brown hair is actually "Dark Ginger"?
I wasn't ready for the implications of this comment.
If you think it is. It is. Definitions change over time. Congrats on your thought process. When I see a police car w/ its lights on. "I think the purple got him/her another one." purple = police. You will now think Brown hair = dark ginger hair. But in a sentence. Look at that dark ginger-haired person over there. Sounds funny, or possibly racist whatever mindset the other people around you are in. You could get into some hot water. It's fun to make your brain think differently than others.
My 2 cents. We as a society have been calling black people "black" but, really we should be calling them orange? It puts a new meaning to "orange is the new black."
Pretty much lol. Humans make such a big deal about being different, but we're all just a mix of the same basic stuff.
Technically every hair natural colour(apart from white which is the absence of brown pigment) is a shade of brown... So yes?
@korbencabby O-M-G!
Wow, this may be the longest informative RUclips video I’ve ever watched and couldn’t bring myself to stop at any point or fast forward at any point. Packed full of information, and entertaining at the same time.
"Orange wasn't a colour until we stole the word from the fruit" ... true.
Red deer, red squirrels, red hair ... they're all orange.
So you’re telling me that brown is a social construct.
All words are social constructs. Words allow us to make certain things distinct. Without specific words to make things distinct, we don't recognize said things as their own separate thing. Brown is as much of a social construct as Red. The difference is, most colours were named after differences in hue or differences on the light spectrum where as Brown is a colour that is different not in hue but in brightness. What this means is that it really isn't exactly real. Well, it's a real colour but there is no such thing as brown light. Just as there is no such thing as grey light or pink light. Colour doesn't really exist. Light exists but colour is a human perception of that light. Technically, light only 'exists' on the colour spectrum on the axis of hue. Saturation and brightness of colour is a construct of a brain over any social construct. So brown, like pink and grey, are three colours that are different because they only exist because our brain told us they exist. They have no real existence outside our brains.

@@pagatryx5451 thank you for this. i guess you just summed out the whole video
If brown is a social construct than the universe is a physical manifestation for all our random thoughts
@@pagatryx5451 there's also the fact that there's a whole spectrum outside of the little "visible light" part. Imagine what kind of colors would be produced from a mind and eyes capable of detecting and processing everything from radiowaves UV microwaves gamma etc.

Atmosphere for overpressure and sand for my second example, meaning that you dont actually see the sound but to be fair you cant actually see an object's color either. What you see is the light it reflects off of it and you perceive that as it's color.

WOW, I never would have expected so much of a positive understanding of colors, color wheel, light, and of course Brown, from the title of this video. BRILLIANT video, huge thank you!
The thing that really helped this concept 'click' for me: there's no such thing as gray light. You can dim a white light source but it's always white.
imagine that would happen.
As someone who deals with projectors a lot, it is kind of hard to convey the simple truth about projectors that they, by the laws of physics, cannot project darkness. It can only make other pixels brighter by comparison. So a projected pixel cannot be darker than the white screens surrounding illumination lets it.
When I was little I had a life crisis over actual black light. I couldn’t wrap my head around the fact that a black light wasn’t a black light. What is a black light of a black light isn’t a black light? WtfffffFfFf?

"Doctor my poo is orange!"
"WHAT?"
"Yes a very dark orange!"
you never ate a whole box of cheez its?

Love this video. Another thing that doesn't exist is a flame. It's just a stream of gas that has attained a luminous temperature; a temperature that falls within the visible spectrum. Perhaps a video examining flames?
This type of analysis isn’t really right - something doesn’t stop existing just because you define it. Pink is light red, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. A table is just a flat thing on legs, but that doesn’t mean there are no tables.
Does that mean trump has been doing blackface the whole time?

“It’s just orange with context” sounds like a punchline to a joke that I don’t know the set up to
Jesus Phish I know of at least one; it’s here in the comments section
Trump is Orange without context
“It’s just orange with context” sounds like a bullshit zen koan =D
Brown is apparently not the only colour like this. Purple is also magenta/pink with the same sort of context. Maroon is also red with that same context.
There is a difference between the way we perceive objects that reflect light and objects that emit light.
@@Myrtone Actually purple is a shade of violet, which IS one of the legit colors on the spectrum. Why are there 7 colors in the rainbow? There are seven colors in the rainbow: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet
In swedish, orange used to be called "fire yellow" until quite recently.
The choice of red for the paint is interesting because that's another where the existence of an English linguistic category gives different perceived colors within a given hue - desaturate red past a certain point and suddenly it's not "light red" the way happens with other colors, but rather becomes the new color category "pink"
I was wearing a brown shirt and asked my 4 year old what color is the shirt he replied dark orange. He was correct after all.
Damn r/imverysmart
Probably because his view on colors isn't influenced by language yet. If you taught him to call dark orange brown and, let's say, dark green xyz, you could probably show him a dark orange and dark green shirt in a few years and he would swear on both of his parents that brown and xyz are definitly not forms of orange and green.
This doesnt work because we can say white is just super light red
@@Monk-E white is all (visible) wavelengths equally. it is not bright anything.
@@okovermekeamglight4563 Well it is light everything...
Yeah, as a digital artist it always trips me up when I want to use a darker shade of orange and I end up choosing between a bunch of browns. It’s like, no! I don’t want brown I want a darker shade of orange!
Turn the brightness up but keep the saturation!
Yep it's me in the school trying to select "not so bright yellow" in Paint with no success
You want tremendously saturated orange.
Haha idk why but this was really funny 😆
Maybe there is just no such thing as a darker orange, what he calls an "orange" in this video I wouldn't call orange, ok, it's a borderline case, you could call it dark orange, but when thinking about orange I would never think about "dark orange"
We used to say, "If it's brown, flush it down. If it's yellow, let it mellow".
The whole 'blue with black is just darker blue' reminded me of my teenaged rage against pink. Blue with white is just lighter blue, but red with less saturation suddenly became its own colour.
"Rainbows aren't physical objects. They're just the result of weird things that happen when electromagnetic radiation gets diffracted and reflected through water droplets and observed from one location in space."
Leprechauns are having to get really technical protecting their pot of gold these days huh.
They may not be physical, but they represent the only objects you can see that are single wavelength color (i.e., "spectral" color). Everything else in the world is mixes of colors that the brain interprets to be pure, but are not.
I feel like brown has an underrated capacity to look classy while also being warmer and more inviting than other “classy” colors, like blue, black, or grey.
It feels like home. The color is the same as land or nourishing soil. Or a comforting tree. I think green and brown would be a color a human on a foreign planet would start to miss.
The first Zune had a brown option. It... decidedly did not look classy. I think the idea that brown is contextual applies to how it's used as well.
@@ArtForSwans Oh, definitely! I completely agree that brown is not always classy. I would argue any color has the capacity to look un-classy or inappropriate in a given context. That's part of the reason for having design, so that things are right for their situation.
Think about leather

Understanding how to trick the eye like that is the key in painting. I didn't really learn much from this, but it was nice to see that art can be applied more broadly :)
Thanks hope you're doing well!
I feel like the same principal of context is what gave birth to the dress color debate, the "blue-black vs white-yellow" dress.

It is obvious if you tried to get brown in any graphics program
@@mittron2556 yeah, I didn’t even use graphic software when I found out about this (I used geometry dash)
This represents exactly the shortfall of digital photography in respect to film.
If you look at color film photos, you will see rich beautiful browns, whereas digital photos have orangeish hues.

Lotus: "just add lightness" to see brown.
I wasn't ready for that last line at the end. Perfection.
The word "orange" is much newer than "brown", so it would make more sense to call orange "light brown".
Technically wouldn't bit be bright brown rather than light brown?
@@jamesowen6100, maybe technically, but not by custom. English has "light blue," not "bright blue." Interestingly, we don't really have "light red," we have "pink." Other languages have a version of "pink" for "light blue."
@@ahwhite2022 maybe that is because in nature we have a lot more red than blue. Like in flowers, you have red, pink, purple and many more, but blue is not really a color that occurs in nature outside the sky, which is not a solid object, so it's different again
You can’t. Because orange can go Lower with white. You can’t say red is “Light Crimson”
@@sepantajan3865 what I mean to say is that orange is increased light value brown, not increased saturation brown, because brown can already be fully saturated. But that brings up the confusion, is bright and light talking about saturation or value? To me, light brown means desaturated brown, but now that I think about, light brown should be increased value brown, or orange
