This thread about how magenta doesn’t actually exist and it’s just imagined by our weird brains is seriously wild! The human brain is nuts. This post also refences the Crazy Eye / Brain Hacks – You Are A Time Traveler thread that further shows how insane our brains are! But really magenta really isn’t found in the visible spectrum of light. Magenta doesn’t exist because it has no wavelength. There is no place for it on the spectrum. It is just psychologically perceived by us as the mixture of red and violet/blue light, with the absence of green. The only reason we see it is because our brain doesn’t like having green between purple and red, so it imagines a new color. Anyway, just read this post, it’s mind-blowing:
FORBIDDEN COLORS. Science is wild.
