I love studying color and how the eye works. My father is colorblind
and I graduated with a B.A. in fine art in 2005 so this is offshoot of
that. When I first heard about all this was in psychology class in college. The teacher used a prism to make a rainbow that was 10 feet long and had the students mark where they could see color. It was odd because, though for the most part we saw the same colors, some could see a little more into the red side or a little more into the violet. Now one must realize that this rainbow was 10 feet and the variation was only one or two inches, except for those with color blindness, which had large portions missing.
On that subject, I think teaching how the brain perceives colors would be fun in class. I like how everyone's brains are different yet work the same. I would love to play with the glasses as well with prisms! It would be fun to play... er... make inquiries about how these work.
