oh, for once i just stowed it. short version, i was staring at my obnoxiously [visually] loud watch, and i'm getting lost in the balance of color of the various splotches, and just realizing: i just wear this for myself. what other people think is an afterthought. and it's because lots of well-balanced color just makes me happy; cheers me up for some reason.
then i spent a few years writing video editing software, so i'm fascinated by color on a technical level, too
so i thought i'd just make a thread about color. my favorite color is probably jungle green. bright (so nudge up RGB across the board) but with definite heavy blue value mixing in with the dominating green

i'm actually not a fan of pastels, per se. i prefer, like, RGB on black. saturation. but it someone uses pastels beautifully, well, not what i would do, but sure, yes. haven't seen either of those
most people think of colorblind as... total monochrome. this is actually rare. most common -- though it's still statistically rare -- is red/green color blindness. like, imagine seeing in shades of blue and grey and nothing else.
what is particularly fascinating to me is that robert del naja, 3D, of massive attack, is red/green color-blind, and used to be a graffiti artist (or still is, on the off-chance he's banksy, but given banksy's colors... yeah, kudos if it is for the colors) and in interviews he said, "people would be all, oh, those colors are wild, how did you come up with that? and meanwhile i have to label the spraypaint cans so i know what colors they are"
that, i dunno, i can actually see that guy... very carefully collating everyone's feedback, and carefully determining what colors work where despite not being able to see them himself. outsider 9000

lord help me i've left it alone but now i'm kind of squinting at banksy art and, hmm. hmm, hm, hmm. that actually... yeah, like, the fire is red, the dumpster is yellow, there's a lot of monochrone throughout... that yeah, actually, parts of this are colored but an overall... monochrome tone. almost a vague sense of being particularly irritated... "goddamn it i wish i could see yellow" and we have some wistful bananas he wishes he could see
but i've no idea what i'm talking about, him being banksy is almost too easy

rumor has it... in an interview banksy spoke of a blood test puzzling his family doctor as he was not officially adopted but clearly not his parents offspring. some theories hence emerged of him having royal blood as its color was, yes, blue!
but maybe their doctor was color blind aswell.
im liking your theory tho, they have a banksy exhibit in my home town right now. i would go, but the ticket is kinda pricey actually. rather buy a bottle of decent tequila and watch banksy online.
fun fact, i did a stencil this summer near the police station,
no, not a pig, but it was pretty exiting!

i was trying to google that to see if it was an actual story, instead of a coded reference, a joke i don't get, something, and, well, search results are so terrible now, they've started to get good again ~ LAZY_TITLE

anyways, it's a tangent, but... someone noticed banksy appearances correlated with massive attack tours, but... it's not unheard of for people to follow tours around, you know? and given 3D was (is?) into that, perhaps there was a little help but otherwise nothing to do with it
but really... if we sweep aside squinting at the colors as a litmus test, 3D has always been incredibly political. still is. it does feel like the same... biting, clever, urgent... but again, could just be a sort of kindred spirit thing. though i also think, the timing, cops busted into poor guy's house claiming he had kiddie porn (he didn't) then they busted him for drugs. later he sued, it was all thrown out because it was horseshit, and likely in revenge for him being politically outspoken. it's actually been completely scrubbed from wikipedia; you really have to dig for it. right to be forgotten and all. it would just make sense if he was racking his brain for a way to keep going, but not get so much shit, and...
if i ever establish proof, i'll do the right thing and never post it.

i did appreciate one thing out of that nonsense drug bust -- i was deeply into 100th window at the time; big influence on me... and i'm wondering: what drugs does this guy do? and here's a detailed list. mostly psychedelics. i think the coke was for guests

COLOR
old-school cataract surgery, they'd remove the filter, and you could then see UV light. monet had this surgery towards the end of his life, and... i think the water lilly paintings are, honestly, limp boring crap compared to his river boat era... but seeing how his lillies changed after his cataract surgery is fascinating
that, mind you, you can't truly see it... comes out as blasts of white... but monet was so deeply into analyzing color... yeah.

3D, get out of my thread -- he did that send-up of water lillies with a traffic cone floating in it
...and, like, he's colorblind, and one could see him saying "you could put a traffic cone in that and i'd not see it" and then the lightbulb goes off.

the woman who can see 100 million colo(u)rs
tetrachromats. that i'm actually still not entirely clear i have it correct, here, but, yes, normal color vision all R-G-B and that's trichromatic vision. birds and fish and lizards are tetrachromats, meaning R-G-B-? and so are some humans with genetic edge-cases; mostly women. the men on these genetic lines tend to crap out and be at least red/green colorblind.
but it's the ? that irritates me. birds can see into the ultraviolet, but i don't think human tetrachromats can. instead, i think it's essentially like they've switched from recording 16-bit to recording 24-bit and they can't see colors we cannot, they just have immensely more granularity about color due to more bits per pixel.
so i think i have it right, but i'm still looking around trying to find a proper answer

The protein encoded is a G-protein coupled receptor with embedded 11-cis-retinal, whose light excitation causes a cis-trans conformational change that begins the process of chemical signalling to the brain
cis-retinal. just wait until florida and texas hear about this one
