What's the Geometry of Colours?

Explore the fascinating mathematical and perceptual foundations of color in this 20-minute educational video that investigates whether colors form a particular geometry and how we can construct this geometry from human perception. Begin with fundamental questions about the nature of color itself, then examine Newton's revolutionary color disc experiments that first revealed the circular relationship between different hues. Delve into the technical XYZ color space system used in modern color science and discover how screens and human vision work together to create our perception of color. Investigate the psychological dimensions of color perception and learn how our minds process and interpret different wavelengths of light. Access an interactive color perception game to test your own visual processing abilities while following along with the psychological approach section. Master the scientific principles behind color theory through clear explanations of historical experiments, modern color spaces, and the intersection of physics, biology, and psychology in human color perception.
