We discuss the ideas behind complementary colors, what they are, how to start thinking about them. Instagram: @benjaminjshamback www.benjaminjshamback.com
Complementary colors appear to be a visual phenomenon with a bit arbitrary rather than precise spectral as it omits the natural indigo color seen in the components of sunlight. If it's included in the color wheel it is no longer symmetric, the basis of complementation.
Agreed. The color wheel no longer maintains those coincidences with 7 distinct colors. Yet, all the colors have a mixing and a visual complement, even indigo.
When you look at something for long enough (7-8 seconds or more), the image stays on your retina after you look away. In the video, if you stare at the corner of the paper and keep looking at the same spot after I pull it away, you'll see the shape of the paper in a different color. In this video I'm referring to the hue of the after image being the opposite of the color you're looking at. If you want a more thorough treatment of after image, try: th-cam.com/video/qcKHApsABb4/w-d-xo.html There we use it to assess values.

Thank you..
you're welcome!

This is interesting! What does after image mean?
