Colour to Frequency - The Light Side

So there is another side to this equation, that I touched on earlier. time to get into it a little bit deeper.

Wavelength to Colour Converter

Website - Colour Science

The first link is pretty much what it says on the tin. The science behind it is explained in the next link, all you need know to play is this - enter a value between 380nm and 780nm...

The second is some preisting science, explaining the mapping of colours throught their frequency spectrum.

As with audio, light and the colours contained within exist in their own spectrum. We can think of this as a little window of perception for us. Vibrations of atoms with a frequency between 20HZ and 20KHZ are known to us as sound, that we percieve with our ears (mostly). In exactly the same way, we percieve light with our eyes, with the colour seperated by its wave frequency. Now there is "slightly" more to it all than I am getting into just now and I am certainly not a physicist. I guess the fact that light exists as a wave and a particle at the same time would be one! Anyways, this is not relevant just now.

The colours seperate out 380nm and 780nm. nm stands for nanometers. When combined into this equation, you can work out the frequency of light waves, pretty cool huh!?

The Relationship Between Speed, Frequency and Wavelength

As the article points out, this equation shows that, in order for us to percieve a medium red colour, 448,000,000,000,000 photon wavecrests pass over our retinas, every single second. 448 TRILLION HERTZ. That's 448Bil every millisecond. 448Mil every nanosecond.

Almost to much to take in, huh? Well, not for your brain. Infact, our brains decoded that, along with every other frequency of colour hitting our eyes, with amazing accuracy. At the same time as running your whole audio perception system, your body, and itself. Unbelievable...

Anyways, the bottom line is this. Frequency and vibration is integral to everything in the Universe. Sound and light are one. As with sound, light has lower and upper registers, harmonics and octaves. 20HZ converts to Red

We exist in a constantly evolving orchestra of light, my mission for this project is to try and reinvigerate the project studio, in a universal way!
