How does the color

Why is there a formal definition of color, or is it not, and is it connected with the fact that it was given by that very Schrodinger? What did Weinberg mean when he called his revolutionary article “The Geometry of Flowers” ? Why does the color triangle have two angles, although it seems intuitively that there should be one? Why does the usual children's drawing show that the author is all right with color perception, and why does an academic artist learn all his life to turn him off? Why are there color clusters in the color space, but they are not? Why does any woman know about the phenomenon of metamerism of colors, and scientists forget all the time? How many color channels should a good camera have? And at the monitor? Why is the answer different? A printer inks?



Answers to these and other questions in the next lecture, which was read at the Faculty of Computer Science, opened at HSE with the support of Yandex.
