@EvilBoris - can’t actually get to discussing *pictorial depictions*, because we don’t stop to ask ourselves what pictures *are*.

There is nothing dictating “Oh this will look like trash”, because the *reason* something looks like trash is *the pictorial formation* process.

[@[email protected] @troy_s]

@EvilBoris No because we are suffocating under Kodak and Giorgianni’s completely bunk ideas around colour cognition. We can’t get to asking the key questions as to *why* the pictorial assembly is cognized as broken, because we insist on conflating stimuli with colour.

Subsequently, we +

@hybridherbst @AkiyoshiKitaoka You should know the answer. Focus on cognitive fission into forms / layers, and the answer becomes obvious.

@nemo20000 @finite_fields @AkiyoshiKitaoka What swatch is without colour in this articulation?

Notions of “without colour” are also cognitive computations; the notion of colour itself is not in any way communicated by a global frame stimuli specification, of which the CIE colourimetric model is.

[@[email protected] @troy_s]

@nemo20000 @finite_fields @AkiyoshiKitaoka - relative to the “ground” in case A, and “down” relative to case B? This is the super importance of the luminance gradient in relation to cognitive computations of “lightness”.

Happy to supply citations, as required.

@nemo20000 @finite_fields @AkiyoshiKitaoka CIE colourimetry is bogus nonsense when extended to articulations.

It’s totally bogus nonsense.

Ganglion pooling of bipolar cells transfer gradients, not scalars. Hence the demonstration that Akiyoshi is showing relates to the local field polarities.

See how the face is “up” +

@nemo20000 @finite_fields @AkiyoshiKitaoka I promise that the three signals are highly correlated and all are “colour”. Luminance (P summed D) and Chrominance (P inhibitory D and (P summed D) inhibitory T) are all implicated.

It’s not quite as you are painting it as luminance being “outside” colour.

This is false.

@nemo20000 @finite_fields @AkiyoshiKitaoka Here is a simpler version, where the research tracks back to Arend and Brainard and others.

[@[email protected] @troy_s]

@nemo20000 @finite_fields @AkiyoshiKitaoka Colour is luminance. Don’t be foolish.

Pay attention to the polarity of the faces and you’ll quickly realize it’s the ganglion cell pooling.

Our visual cognition is *differential gradients*, not scalar quantities like a sensor. Hence the super importance of polarity.

@worldsday @miketuritzin Just repeat “linear” a hundred times, and then finish with “perceptual”.

[@[email protected] @troy_s]

@imadr_ Colour is a **biological** cognitive inference computation, that emerges from the cognitive assembly of inferences of the spatiotemporal articulations of the energy.

[@[email protected] @troy_s]

For the record, this is one idiot techbro *assumption* without a shred of research.

It’s a false assumption, for anyone who actually reads research or does their homework.

Shame on Khronos for propagating random techbro opinion, but we should expect nothing less.

[@[email protected] @troy_s]

@imadr_ Just wavelengths. No colour.

[@[email protected] @troy_s]

@imadr_ (In your diagram, there is no such thing as a “red” photon, nor a “red” pixel.)

[@[email protected] @troy_s]

@imadr_ - signals is an active area of research.

No better than to show you two picture formations derived from the same colourimetric electrical sensor entry point. Notice how one contains stimuli that leads to cognitively dissonant cues of “a translucent cup”?
