I'm white and gold.
Local sports guy had a great line last night. He was showing clips of the Purdue game and made some reference to their white and gold unis, then said or maybe they're black and blue.
I hadn't seen this yet, so I just chalked it up to maybe it was a rough game and he was talking about bruised or something. When I read this a few minutes later, it all made sense.

Have you guys ever taken the Pantone Test (or more officially the Farnsworth Munsell 100 Hue Test)?
Online Color Challenge
I took it some time ago and this whole discussion about color perception made me think of it.

The dress in question was a distinct, deep blue and black to my eyes.
The test? Fun. I scored an 18 (0=best, 99=lowest score)

I used to work with a guy that had a degree in printing or something. He was some kind of expert in colors and how different fabrics, surfaces, and light will change how they appear. He set up some demos that were really pretty neat in how you could be fooled. So with that in mind, I'm going to claim that I scored a 3 on the test and blame any misses on my monitor. |
I scored a perfect, but now I feel like my eyes are crossed |
Yeah, but what color is the dress? I really am curious, though, if there's any correlation.
Did anyone who sees blue/black (e.g. Howee) look at the IFLS article? What color was the grid square to your eyes?
I scored perfect on the color test, but it was excruciating.

As a digital photographer... I just say WOW. I can't believe this shit. The online human race is suddenly introduced to the confluence of digital color issues, including white balance and color profile settings, monitor differences, room lighting. I'm shaking my fucking head._________________ Every woman who has ever been presented with a career/sex quid pro quo in the entertainment industry should come forward and simply say, “Me, too.” - jammer The New York Times 10/10/17 |
