Sight and hearing are completely different. We have high resolution in perception of audible frequencies, but perceive color in three wide bands. This means that resonance and overtones in sound can be perceived in a way they can't with light. The whole premise seems conceptually flawed to me.
It’s like attempting to play a chord progression by passing white noise through a three band equalizer.
- exwog 7y agoWe perceive color in three wide stripes only at first. As a result, we perceive one resulting color. By mixing red and green, for example, we get yellow. Drawing a parallel with the music, we focus on the feeling of perception (the resulting color).
- exwog 7y agoI will try to explain why we take the resulting color. On the example of the same yellow color. We can get it both in pure form and in mixed form (green and red). But for us it will be the same yellow color. And it will also be in harmony with black (for example).
