Who Are We?

We are explorers of the vibrant world of color, diving deep into its many facets to understand what it truly represents. Colors surround us—they shape our emotions, perceptions, and experiences.

From the calm of blue skies to the warmth of a golden sunrise, colors are more than just visual elements. They are a language, a process, a way to communicate and connect with the world around us. We study how colors transform in different contexts—natural, artistic, cultural, and even impossible scenarios.

By asking others what color means to them and reflecting on its derivatives, such as "colored," "colorful," or "in color," we seek to tell a story that resonates universally.

What Color Means to Us

Color influences emotions and experiences differently for everyone. Here's what it means to three important people in my life.

My Mother

"Color is warmth and comfort. It reminds me of the golden hues of sunlight on a peaceful morning and the rich red of home-cooked meals."

My Girlfriend

"Color is passion and creativity. It’s the pink of blooming flowers, the fiery orange of a sunset, and the endless blue of the ocean."

My Friend

"Color is energy and excitement. It’s the bright neon lights of the city and the vibrant mix of colors in a music festival."

The Curious Case of Color

Colors enrich our world, giving rise to terms like "colored," "colorful," or "in color." "Colored" refers to something that has color, like colored paper or clothing. "Colorful" is used to describe something that has many colors or looks bright and lively, like a colorful painting or a fun event. The phrase "in color" refers to things that were once black and white but are now in full color, like a movie or photograph. These words help us talk about how we see and experience colors in different ways.

One of the most intriguing colors is magenta. Magenta doesn't exist as a singular wavelength of light. Instead, it’s a fabrication of our brains, merging red and blue light in the absence of green. This mysterious color isn't part of the rainbow yet manifests vividly in our imagination and digital screens.

Reflecting on magenta challenges our understanding of perception and shows how much our minds create reality. Could there be other colors our minds have yet to invent?
