Is color real? If so, what is it? Why does this matter? This video explores the ancient debate between Newton and Goethe to answer these questions and shed some light (pun intended) on why we have certain associations with different colours.

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 8 ай бұрын
@@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!

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

I'd love to hear more about aspects of color assessment I've never quite understood--like saturation, shade, tone, gray-tone, metallic color, light-bleaching, the endless mixed colors--teal, pink, salmon, lilac, sage, umber, cream, brown, vermilion, viridian, etc, and the various over-effects that seem to bear some analogy with the "timbre" of sound--adularescence, opalescence, iridescence, labradorescence, aventurescence, etc.

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. Thanks for your wonderful video.

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 🤙

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.

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 read the Doors of Perception as a teenager and I still use alot of those ideas in my understanding of reality, color, and the how the brain works. Primarily how the waking reality essentially filters out the vast majority of sensory information through evolution to a very limited window of what's most important for daily survival and such.
