Now i am older and see it lost it ravenblack tint. Its daft and more yellow. And i recongnize that when i close my eyes i see fractals of coulours. Thats why i dont like staring in the sky because i see small dots and strings of colours. Making me feel uncomfortable. I can see coulor pretty well but i have poor eyesight. Maybe due to old age.

[@watkinskrystal]

It's not really like that. Instead of "red" we have a bunch of shades that fall into that category. Some reds have more orange fiery shades, or subtle purple hues. They very in intensity from pastels to rich red blacks. From vivid to subdued. We still have an opinion of what we think when someone says the color red. In all fairness though a shade at my job is labeled "hunter green." When in fact it's a teal. It's a heavy mix of blues and greens. Honesty no one believes me. Everyone else thinks just green. I was even called a liar. It's strange when others can't verify what you see. But it is more beautiful.

Of course every person has different hues and undertones in their skin, its really beautiful!

Like olive-brown-green, and mustard-yellow-light brown, or light pink-light ivory. Its just wonderful how beautiful people are! And that majestic blue-ivory undertone, especially when the skin is dark brown, its just amazingly beautiful! When people blush, its not just one red, its a caleidoscope of reddish pink that flows through the cheecks, almost like running paint, its so beautiful! But Heaven has so many more colours to see, and smell, and taste, and hear, and feel. I can't wait for that day when we will be in Heaven, but until then I stay busy on this earth.

So if her husband is color blind, then it's actually almost a certainty that any daughter she has would also be a tetrachromat, and that any son she could have would also be colorblind. It turns out that having one X chromosome with the "tetrachromat" mutation causes color blindness, but having two X chromosomes with the same mutation is what has the opposite effect and allows you to see "more" colors (or at least more shades between the colors). So if her husband is colorblind, it means that his X single chromosome carries the mutation... and if she's a tetrachromat, it means that both of her X chromosomes carry it... hence, any child of theirs will DEFINITELY receive only mutated X chromosomes. And that means if the child is a male (receives just one mutated X), he will be colorblind, but if it's a female (and gets both mutated Xs), she will be a superhuman, lol.

Now i know how color blind feels when presented with description from someone who doesnt have it. I am so jelous...

[@jumpander]

My hypothesis (which I already tested on others and myself) is that color is created in context. With enough context given - and that is differences in luminosity of the cones - color emerges. Now, if there was a way to lower the luminosity of a specific cone - let's say the green/medium cone - and that in only one way in order to have the best of both worlds, you would be able to see more color differences especially in the near range around green (i.e. every color between cyan and yellow). And there is a way: Wearing glasses where only one lense has a magenta color your create enough differences in luminosity for new colors to emerge in between old colors. Without wearing these one lensed magenta glasses I cone only make out a color difference in the lime-green range down to [R: 70, G: 255, B: 0], and even then it's still rather difficult (and I'm not color vision deficient in any way). However, with the special glasses on I can make out color differences down to [R: 35, G: 255, B: 0]. So, at least two times more color differences. And this reflects itself also in the colors I see. Lime-green (the color midway between yellow and green) becomes as distinct to me as green and yellow. And yellow becomes as distinct to me as green and red. It really is hard to discribe but the experience of these new colors is exeptional and everyone can theoretically experience them. Color is a lot more plastic and moldable than you might think.

[@UHFStation1]

It is my understanding that despite a mantis shrimp having up to 16 cone types, it still cannot see as many colors as a trichromic human. I assume that has to do with the range and overlap of each.

[@_wanted_outlaw3007]

It can see different colors it can't see the same amount of colors, get it? Like new colors that don't exist for us but is it normal for them, as explained in the video the lady sees lots and lots of the same colors a normal person could see just all mixed together

[@juliafraa6419]

It's not just a matter of the number of cone types, your brain also has to compare the wavelengths it detects. It's called opponency. Our neurons combine the information together. Some animals have more cones but do not see a spectrum of color because they don't compare the colors they perceive and put them together in the same way.

I was constantly bullied in school because I would had a hard time making out just the basic RGB into its own categories and the hues and saturation’s separately. Asking me colors I could never truly give a straight personal answer, I rely on common knowledge to help me determine. Edit: Better explanation in comments.

[@blahfacnottelling1648]

The test for 4 cone use literally only counts if you consistently see the same colors for the same things. So based on your answer you'd fail a tetrachromacy test o.O

[@DevjKaiser]

@@blahfacnottelling1648 Sorry, but there’s a few things you didn’t take into consideration. I should’ve explained more in my answer of why art class was a mess. The paints weren’t consistent they were different brands and students weren’t the best at cleaning brushes and using the paints. Different companies have different formulas for creating their colors. When you are getting tested, either genetically or a color test, you are given solid samples from the same company in a batch, solid samples from another company in a batch then mixed. This is why you don’t get one paint color from one brand made by another. Paints are either computer mixed or eyeballed, but the true culprit will come down to the different bases they use for their paints. If you go to a paint store you may see that each paint can may say base 1, base 2, base 3 etc. That’s the base that’s needed for certain depths of color. Paint companies often use different ingredients in their base so you’re not working with the same foundation if you move from one brand to another. Hope that clears any confusion and if you have any questions please ask ☺️ I will do my best to answer. There are many “tests” out there, but dna and color dye or paint is leading the way. If someone tries to test you on a computer monitor, leave.

[@jumpander]

Do you see colors in color, like Cencetta Antico?

[@DevjKaiser]

@@jumpander Yes. Years ago I actually met her and been to her gallery. She’s a very sweet person and listening about her childhood experiences with colors was similar to mine, we thought how we saw things was just like everyone else, there was no reason to think we had anything different.

[@jumpander]

​@@DevjKaiser Oh wow, I didn't expect an answer that fast. Interesting, I wish I can visit one of her galleries in the near future, too. It must be a stunning experience because a computer screen can't possibly reproduce all the subtle colors of her works, I figure. Also on that note: I experimented with glasses with differently colored lenses. Like old anaglyph 3D-glasses, that means for example one lense/side is red and the other one is blue. After testing a few color combinations I can now say that I have seen many many more colors that the average person and than before. The best colored lense combination so far is yellowish-orange and bluish-violet for me. With this looking at flowers I can sometimes barely hold back my tears and astonishment because the new colors I see are so beautiful. If you think about it it makes sense: You distort the perceivable color spectrum of each eye so that you can distinguish more colors than normally. A good way to describe it is like having one eye of Concetta Antico and the other eye of a color blind person. Colors are jumbled and you have to learn them anew, but they are more beautiful than before. For example: I've seen bluish-red-violets, so literally a red violet that glows bluish. Or pink Magentas, bright Fuchsia-Magentas that are somehow even more magenta than before. And my personal favourite is 'true Cyan'. With the colored lense combination of yellowish-orange and bluish-violet normal Cyan is greenish to one eye and bluish to the other. And my brain, after months of using these special glasses (and even a wee bit at the start), can now see true Cyan. (I know it's true cyan because I can compare it to the "true cyan illusion" you can find e.g. on youtube). If you really are a tetrachromat then I would be interested in what new color experience such glasses bestow onto you. If even I, as a trichromat, see more colors than before with a lense combination of e.g. yellowish-orange and bluish-violet, what could a tetrachromat then possibly see?

Mad C men can’t be tetrochromats. It’s biologically impossible. Also, tetrochromacy doesn’t actually really do anything. The whole craze behind “tetrochromats” started this whole pseudoscience craze but people with an extra yellow cone still see the exact same color spectrum we do. They MAY (very rarely, literally only 12 people in existence) see a sliiiiiightt differentiation between two similar shades of yellow. Wow amazing! Except not. It doesn’t do anything, this video is nonsense.

Does someone have a video explaining how this actually works? Because I am very confused and an actual presentation, maybe even a video where you see like a tetrachromat like it isn't that hard to just squish the extra colors into the visible light spectrum, why no one already made it?

[@splashykoy11]

It’s not as easy as just adding entirely new colors to a video. Monitors only display 3 main colors (red, green, and blue.) Plus, it’s impossible to force our eyes into seeing colors that are literally beyond our own spectrum. That’s simply not how the brain perceives color.

[@Szymks]

@@splashykoy11 My comment is 1 year old, so I'm not entirely sure what I meant back then, but I think I meant that it would be cool if somebody made a video where the extra colors would be squished so they fit in the visible light spectrum, for example: red would become yellow, purple would become blue, and by shifting colors in that way you would be able to represent the additional colors beyond the visible spectrum as shades of purple or red. It would look a bit wonky, but at least you would have all the information that a person actually seeing those colors would have. Edit: actually after watching the video again, I'm now not so sure if it's possible, you could definitely squish many more colors that way, but 100x more than the average human sees and an entirely new cone seems a bit difficult.

The title is deceiving along with some of the narration. We do not see 100million colors (for reference the average person sees 1 million colors, that would mean we see 99 million more because that's what a 4th cone is suppose to do) however we do not see colors that no one else can or has seen before, we just see more shades of the same colors. So let's say two colors are extremely similar and someone ask you to pick which one is lighter or different out of a group. Most people would fail if it was to subtle where we would easily spot the difference. I see slightly differently, emphasis on slightly though you can at least imagine what it might be like to see like me however none of us can imagine what ultra violet light looks like which is what this video is making it out to be in the title.

There are probably ultraviolet tetrachromats (4th cone picks up UV, mutated blue cone) One tetrachromat's 4th cone may be very different from the cone it mutated from meaning they can easily pick out more colors in a real flower than any picture of a flower. Look up tetrachromacy apparently, not all tetrachromats are created equal.

There are a few more things you can see that "aren't real" but which you can "make real". Especially light has many normally unperceivable properties which can be perceived if you use the right technology. Although real functional tetrachromacy is still far away for neurotypical trichromats, there are ways to simulate tetrachromacy or even higher dimensions of colors. On Tetrachromacy and/or more: I'm working on making humans more than trichromats by bestowing a fourth cone or something similar onto them. There are glasses, i.e. Infitec's Triple Band Pass Interference Glasses (TBP glasses) that split the RGB cones in our eyes into R1,G1,B1 in the left and R2,G2,B2 in the right eye. This is achieved by the combination of multiple band pass filters in a single lens. If we take the green cone for example the TBP glasses split the cone sensitvity into two parts: The left eye now only receives a green where all the green cones that are more sensitive to red-ish light are cut off and the right eye now only receives a green where all the green cones that are sensitive to more blue-ish light are cut off. In effect, it makes 2 cones out of one. And because a lesser sensitivity of a cone type results not just in a perceived luminosity change but also in a perceived color change - because the surrounding colors shift closer in to the color space of the diminished color - you implement impossible color combinations into your vision. This happens to all three cone types and enables you to make out color differences you could have never imagined being able to differentiate before. Unfortunately, you won't see any new "primary" color(s). However, I feel like I can see new secondary and tertiary colors / color differences. This effect is a lot stronger depending on the quality of the light source. The more monochromatic the light source or the more the color distribution of that light is different to sunlight the more noticable the effect becomes. An example: Imagine two oranges. One is illumated by orange-ish light and one by an orange-ish light mixture of red and green. I can easily tell whether it's a more monochromatic orange or an orange mixture of green and red. This is because the TBP glasses' right lens blocks most of the more monochromatic orange light but the left lens lets the color pass through almost undisturbed. With a mixture of red and green light, the resulting color experience is different. So, comparing an orange of a screen to a more monochromatic orange light there is a stark difference. With only a single magenta lens over one of my eyes I calculated that I can even see at least 1.25 times the colors (especially in the yellow-green/lime and cyan-green/turquoise color space). So similar to what Concetta Antico (most likely a functional female tetrachromat) might be experiencing, just without a new primary color, but with new impossible color combinations. Wearing this single magenta lense allows me to make out double the color differences in the lime and turquoise color space. Where the green to greenish-lime colors #00FF00 and #20FF00 look identical to me under normal conditions, with the single magenta lens on these two colors are as different to me as #00FF00 and #40FF00 (where I can normally see a slight difference). This an increase in color discriminability from 40 down to 20, that is double the color discriminability. I can make out details in cyan to yellow things I could have never noticed before, even (and especially) on RGB screens. Yellow is as different from green to me now as red is from green. And red glows like a beacon. My subjective color contrasts are definitely a lot higher. And this is only the beginning. I'm working an active XR glasses and software (the glasses I mentioned before are all passive) that implement impossible colors into the perceived color spectrum. So like a red-orange, a red-yellow, a red-lime, red-green, a magenta-green, a cyan-red, a green-purple, etc. With this technology you can implement at least 100+ new distinct (impossible) color combinations into your color spectrum. And oh boy, I've already seen it. The camera and color pass through quality of the XR glasses (even Pico 4 or Quest Pro) I used were abysmally bad and yet it was so beautiful. You can imagine what I saw with it like Star Trek's Geordi La Forge's VISOR. (There are clips online that show what he'd see. It was in an offical episode.) There is color in color in color in color and it's not an exaggeration. If you can learn to make sense of this even tetrachromacy seems inferior. Other interesting stuff: Polarization sense: Humans can see the polarization of light. It's called Haidinger's Brush and is located in the center of the visual field. But it is way too faint to have any practical use in day to day life. However, we can wear passive linearly polarized glasses where the left lens polarizer is rotated to 45 degrees and the right one to 135 degrees. Putting these glasses on you can see stress patterns as colored patterns in conditions where there is polarized light and/or polarized filters. And you can make out the general polarization of light in the form of (dependently monochromatic) light intensity differences. If you now wear appropriate glasses with two differently colored lenses (that don't possess a stress pattern or birefringence) you can even see this polarization in a dichromatic gradient instead of a situational monochromatic one. With the right interfernce glasses (like: Infitec's Triple Band Pass Interference Glasses) you can make the colorful stress patterns (birefringence) even way more visible, sharp and distinct AND give (monchromatic) polarized light a dichromatic gradient. As you might tell, I'm a sense researcher. I love senses because they are the only things that connect us to this world. If you can sense more of this world by acquiring more senses or enhance the already existing ones, this world will become even more beautiful and rich in detail. Shameless plug: On my channel you can find videos about all of this.

[@jumpander]

For now that's a bit too hard. Let's look out what the future has in store. But I can give you a recommendation. By using glasses with differently colored lenses, e.g. one lense/side is yellow and the other lense/side is blue-violet, you can somewhat broaden your color perception. It's a bit like old anaglyph 3D-glasses but the colors of the lenses are better suited. My favourite lense-combinations are (the 3rd one being the best): 1) Red and Blue: Not as good as the other combinations, but the Violets and Purples are really good. 2) Red and Mangenta: With with this color-combination you can see really strong and potent Blues. And Reds glow like realistic fire-red/orange. Also yellow seems more yellowish than before. 3) And the best combination so far is Yellowish-Orange and Bluish-Violet: With this colored lense-combination I can see a true cyan. This is possible because my brain is tricked into seeing it. One lense makes normal cyan greenish, and the other lense makes it bluish. And my brain then thinks: Oh, that must be true Cyan. And I now how to compare it to true Cyan, just type in "true cyan" on youtube and you'll find plenty of videos showing you how to perceive it for a short moment. After experimenting with glasses with the Yellowish-Orange and Bluish-Violet colored lense combination I can now say for certain that I have seen many many many more colors than most people. Just looking at flowers with these glasses brings me to tears because I see colors that are so beautiful and that I have never seen before. But not only that; because I've been doing this for months now my brain has learned how to see these new colors. I literally can't see normal videos or series/animes anymore without these colored-lense glasses because it makes such a difference. (I still watch a lot of videos normally, but I enjoy them more with the glasses.) And if you think about it it makes sense. With the colored lenses you reposition the respective perceiveable color spectrum of each eye. Normally both eyes have the same perceiveable color spectrum. But by repositioning this with differently colored lenses you get new combinations of colors and therefore new colors. I know that's a long comment but you wanted to see more colors and I figured: I know a way how to and I can tell you, so I did. If you want to know more about this just write me a comment like I did. I would be happy to eloborate.
