I just found something interesting

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

i was never taught it like that. i think there was some
rhyme

from ever since i could remember i've known the exact order
anyway so this was like new to me. ha! like being a idm
child

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 !

because it has probably been taught in the education system
"

but no. i went ahead with it. i have balls
