  2. Polychrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polychrome

    The term polychromatic means having several colors. It is used to describe light that exhibits more than one color , which also means that it contains radiation of more than one wavelength . The study of polychromatics is particularly useful in the production of diffraction gratings .

  3. Polymodal chromaticism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polymodal_chromaticism

    In music, polymodal chromaticism is the use of any and all musical modes sharing the same tonic simultaneously or in succession and thus creating a texture involving all twelve notes of the chromatic scale (total chromatic). Alternately it is the free alteration of the other notes in a mode once its tonic has been established.

  6. Color theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_theory

    A mixture produced from two primary colors, however, will be much more highly saturated than one produced from two secondary colors, even though the pairs are the same distance apart on the hue circle, revealing the limitations of the circular model in the prediction of color-mixing results. For example, a mixture of magenta and cyan inks or ...

  7. Chromesthesia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromesthesia

    A keyboard depicting note-color associations. The colors are experienced with the sounding of the note, and are not necessarily localized to piano keys. Chromesthesia or sound-to-color synesthesia is a type of synesthesia in which sound involuntarily evokes an experience of color, shape, and movement.

  8. Polychromatic symmetry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polychromatic_symmetry

    Polychromatic symmetry is a colour symmetry which interchanges three or more colours in a symmetrical pattern. It is a natural extension of dichromatic symmetry . The coloured symmetry groups are derived by adding to the position coordinates ( x and y in two dimensions, x , y and z in three dimensions) an extra coordinate, k , which takes three ...

  9. Impossible color - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impossible_color

    For example, staring at a saturated primary-color field and then looking at a white object results in an opposing shift in hue, causing an afterimage of the complementary color. Exploration of the color space outside the range of "real colors" by this means is major corroborating evidence for the opponent-process theory of color vision.
