  1. @b0rk Maybe not quite what you asked for, but when I wanted to step away from frameworks and refamiliarise with CSS, I had a lot of fun (and learnt a lot) going back to first principles with colour theory and applying some of that using modern CSS. I wrote it all up a while back in case it’s of interest.

  2. Dusted off an article I wrote last year on generating OKLCH colour palettes, adding a new section exploring the limitations of linear interpolation and how easing equations solved the problem I ran into.

    ugly colour of the day: purple 🟪

    people who like purple are honestly just weirdos, why go for purple when you could have the beautiful 448 C instead??? maybe those people should get their eyes checked...

  4. I saw Zultanite, a rare #gem in #Turkiye that undergoes the #Alexandrite #colour change effect:

    Our cones are not created equal; the short 'blue' wavelength sensor is well separated from the similar 'green' & 'red' curves 👁️

    Alexandrite cuts off blue (like a yellow object) but embedded metals absorb the middle spectrum, meaning in black-body curve candlelight the 'green'/'red' ratio gets miscorrected by our colour constancy mechanisms🕯️

  5. Great links to colour-related resources in both your latest newsletters @marcthiele @smashingmag. My homespun approach isn't as sophisticated as some options covered (which I'm now going to study!), but I had fun and learned something applying colour theory using OKLCH on my recent site redesign. Wrote about it here:

  9. Thinking of making a Rubik's Cube with piece colours interpolating between the centre colours (which would be black, white, red, green, blue and yellow). Still working on getting the colours evenly spaced though.

  14. One way to create a visually satisfying piece is to have a unifying hue. It's a color you mix into most everything in your palette. For Yreka, I'm using Titan Green Pale. The one place I'm not using it is on the rooster farmer's head to make it stand out more. It's the surreal element and I want to drive that home by visually setting it apart as much as possible. #artwork #wip #painting #colortheory #colourtheory

  16. Website discovery of the day: filmcolors.org/, a #database "created in 2012, developed and curated by #BarbaraFlueckiger, professor at the Department of #Film Studies, University of Zurich to provide comprehensive information about historical film color processes invented since the end of the 19th century including specific still photography color technologies that were their conceptual predecessors."

  17. The deepest dive into the art and science of colour that you didn’t know you needed, including:

    How light works
    How vision works
    Computer graphics
    Colour Theory
    Colour spaces
    Non-Euclidean geometry
    Gamuts
    Palettes
    RGB vs sRGB vs HSL
    OKLAB
    And somehow even more than that

  18. Paul Klee (1879 - 1940) had a highly individual style influenced by many art movements. He experimented with and eventually mastered colour theory, and wrote extensively about it. His ‘Paul Klee Notebooks’, are considered so important that they are compared to the importance that Leonardo da Vinci's ‘A Treatise on Painting’ had for Renaissance. His works reflect his personal moods and beliefs, and his musicality.

  19. Dammit, why do people feel the need to change things to worse options?! Interfaces are #blue enough, we don't need another prominent icon being blue!

    Loved the dash of pinky-purple, was a great #accentColour for the app :(
