Colour color kuller culler…
We may disagree about the spelling of colour/color, but we can all agree that it is a fascinating subject to investigate. Colorotate.org is an original way to look at colour and colour palettes*.
How we perceive colour, is a good summary of the scientific process.
The site links to two really good web exhibits, investigating why things are coloured, and colour vision and art, a look at vision science and the emergence of modern art.
*Try ColourLovers.com for some delicious colour palette collections.
A pigment of your imagination.
