mer are you... are you okay
i've just had a terrible idea
ok so, for the last few hours i've been making this code that organizes the colors in drawings:
(mostly @metukika's bc her works look really dope and i don't have many like that ;_;)
and these things feel like something that would be sold as a "deconstruction of classical paintings" like the "the kiss" by Klimt, "starry night" by Van Gogh or "Girl with a pearl earing" by vermeer
i can imagine going to an art gallery and finding stuff like this, made by someone who thinks they are so so smart
Ok but this is actually phenomenally cool OP, and a terrific tool for explaining some of the weirder aspects of color theory, especially how to translate color from traditional media to digital.
I'm working on the teaching plan for a digital painting class I'm going to pitch to my illustration school, and I was wondering if you had something I could use to show this concept to the class? (In exchange for full credit and money of course)
For anyone wondering how this works: Colors on a computer screen are represented by different proportions of red, green, and blue, with each of the three values having a minimum of 0 and a maximum of 255. If red and green are equal but blue is zero, you have yellow. If red and blue are equal but green is zero, you have purple. If all values are equal, you have a shade of gray. 0 for all values is black, and 255 for all values is white (because it's based on light, which is an additive color system, unlike traditional media, which are subtractive).
So, what OP did here was map every color onto a 255 x 255 x 255 cube. You can see the pixel for black on the bottom at the coordinates 0, 0, 0, and the pixel for white on the opposite corner on top at 255, 255, 255. The vertical axis is green, and horizontal and depth are blue and red, respectively!
