I was looking through a web page talking about refraction of light and stuff (for art work), when I found something relating to none other than BoC! Some of you may know this but I noticed one of the colour combinations made up a well known MHTRTC track. The extract is below.
"Wavelength and Color
There is a simple way to remember the order of wavelengths of light from longest to shortest: ROY G. BIV. The letters stand for red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. (This violet is not the same as the crayon color called violet, which is a shade of purple.) The human eye perceives different wavelengths of light as different colors. Red is the color of the longest wavelength the human eye can detect; violet is the shortest. Red light has a wavelength of around 700 nanometers (nm). (A nanometer is one-billionth of a meter.) Light with a wavelength longer than 700 nm is called infrared. ("Infra" means "below.") Violet light is around 400 nm. Electromagnetic radiation with a shorter wavelength is called ultraviolet. ("Ultra" means "beyond.") It is best not to use the terms "ultraviolet light" or "infrared light," for instance, because the word "light" should be applied only to wavelengths that the human eye can detect."

you might want to look into chameleon/flip flop pearls,that i use-they reflect and refract the light source giving different colours at different angles

because MHTRTC has to do with children and so does this basic knowledge but hey! it makes for a super thread

are you kidding me? you learn that shit in kingergarten when you do the color wheel
white light is the combination of all those colors and black is the absence of any color, it itself...is not a color
as well !
