Essays on Color

Introduction

In 1852, Francis Guthrie was discussing with his brother Frederick the coloring of a map. He discovered the fact that he could color the map of England counties with the use of only four colors. He used the colors in such a way that each division had a single color and two segments sharing a common boundary had different colors. Thus, the four color problem was born and the question arose whether in a plane map, four colors were sufficient to denote the divisions of adjacent regions sharing the same boundary, without using the same colors.

The perception of the majority of people in any society easily denotes what dominant ideologies mean. Each society shares certain beliefs that uphold certain values accepted and indeed practiced by them as revealed by the Omi and Winant racial theory. They argued the race concept was created to justify genocide and inequality that characterized the European or whites’ colonization. Blacks were discriminated and used as slaves, a situation that led them to create a social conscious framework that Europeans were born more superior to them. These dominant versions of the society beliefs proved to be very persuasive especially if ...

Gabbidon and Greene candidly and comprehensively address the factors that account for the disproportionate representation of the minority youths in the American juvenile system. They address the real issues confronting the American juvenile justice system and the American society in general. Although minority youth makeup only a third of the American juvenile population, they contribute two-thirds of the juvenile detention population. The factors that account for DMC are compound and multifaceted making it hard to resolve the issues.
Racial and ethnic stereotypes are the major factors that account for DMC. White Americans associate black Americans with hard crimes and ...

The eye under study was the owl’s eyes. Owls have forward facing eyes located on the front of the face. Owls have rather large eyes in comparison to their body weights. Depending on the species, an owl’s eyes range between one and five percent of the animal’s body weight. The owl’s eyes enable it to have a binocular vision hence seeing objects in three dimensions and can hence judge distances just as humans. The view of an owl is 110 degrees with over 70 degrees allocated to the animal’s binocular vision the rest is ...

A dental cavity in a tooth is the result of the decay process that happens over time when bacteria in the mouth produce acids. In a time, acids can dissolve enamel and cause a hole, which is known as a cavity. Unlike some other injuries, a cavity will not heal by itself and needs to be filled. Several different materials are available, and each material has advantages and disadvantages.
Dental fillings can be categorized as direct or indirect restorations. Direct restorations are fillings that get inserted into a cavity in a single visit. These substances include consisting of amalgams, ...

Abstract

All cells in a living organism require energy to drive various cellular activities such as transport of molecules and movement among others. The rate of cellular respiration may be affected by the substrate concentration, pH level and enzyme concentration among other factors. This experiment aimed to study the rate of cellular respiration in isolated mitochondria under different conditions. It was hypothesized that if the concentration of the substrate is increased then there will be an increase in the rate of cellular respiration. Mitochondrial suspension was used as the source of succinate that was used as the substrate. The level ...

It is another thing all together, to worry about their size, shape, complexion, hair and other body features. This is the story we get in the short story ...

Introduction

This research paper examines three commonly-used food coloring substances: annatto, cochineal and saffron. Topics addressed include the sources of the colorings (geographic and in nature), how they are used (with which foods), and how they are affected, e.g. by cooking or by acidity when used.

Annatto

Annato is a naturally-occurring dye, ranging in color from a “bright yellow to deep orange” (“What is Annatto?” n.d.). The seeds of the achiote tree – indigenous to Central and Southern America – are the source of the dye, which in those regions is not only used as food coloring but simply as a dyestuff and ...

Abstract. Oxidation of ethanol is carried out by the oxidizing agent, potassium dichromate. The oxidizing agent undergoes a color change followed by the completion of the reaction. This change of color is utilized to measure the absorbance of the solution. The concentration of the unknown ethanol sample is calculated by plotting an absorbance vs concentration graph of the standard solutions.

The rock I will be examining in this report is granite. Granite – is the most commonly spread rock in the continental crust formed by the slow cooling and solidification of magmatic melting rocks in depth. Granite can also be formed during metamorphism – under the influence of high temperature and pressure, as well as under the influence of a variety of liquids and gases (fluids), rising from the depths. Granites play a huge role in the structure of the Earth`s crust and the whole continents, since this solid rock is one of the main materials forming the outer part ...

These were Spirits and were found in Mesopotamia. They were associated with kindness and protection. The Mesopotamian Lama Deities were crafted in obedience to god Shamash, which was also popularly known as the sun god. They were made during the period 2100-2000 BC. Looking at the face, one finds a beautified face that has been made to be extremely sensitive to touch. The beard has been made to be luxurious, and this possibly suggests that the spirit was male. This is because of the beard that is a feature associated solely with males.

Summary and Annotation

Summary
Richard Colyer’s article, “Thoreau’s Color Symbols” is an incisive and exhaustive elaboration of Thoreau’s utilization of color in description of natural phenomena and the innate interconnections between the discernible and the unseen (999). His imagery was grounded in the natural process of birth, development, maturity, decay and regeneration after decomposition. In spite of this, he found it problematic drawing parallels between humanity and nature. His belief, though, was that man can acquire the discipline to perceive sensual elements of nature instead of just the sensuous ones.
The main vehicles of Thoreau’s imagery were sound, ...

The rock I found was gray in color and appeared to be silky in the sun. As I checked the internet to identify the kind of rock I found, I learned that it was slate. This kind of rock is found in some garden in my neighborhood, with some used as slate gravel while others as stepping stones. Not far from my house, I saw a house with slate as its roof.
Judging by the color and texture of my rock, and the powdery grain that was left in my hands after rubbing it, I surmised that ash is ...

Light is the cause of revelation that allows us to realize very simple yet magnificent ways of nature. The main event triggered by its presence is the passing of the day into the night. While twilight is a natural phenomenon, its effect can be created through the imagination of art. Such a creation incorporates color and portrays serenity and a sense of calmness. In such an event as would be artificially influenced by structures, the lighting invokes quietness. It may be viewed I a well created structure such as the one used by James Turell to allow the viewer ...

The novel titled “Devil in a Blue Dress” is the work of Walter Moseley as an adaptation of the 1940’s detective series that features a prominent post-World War hero known by the name of Rawlins. As readers label the novel as hard-boiled, it is interesting to see how the novel came to be called in such term. Devil in a Blue Dress is difficult to understand because of its unusual conventions and narratives. The approach to writing in the novel encompasses on repetitive themes and tropes.

Thesis:
The writer uses a series of lush sensual series of contrasts to highlight his personal sense of loneliness and isolation indicating that emotions are more valuable than physical enjoyment.

Discussion:

The poem starts in the autumn garden as the writer is pulling the last young onions from the cold brown ground. The closing day flames and he glimpses a cardinal. After pulling the onions, he washes them and drinks the water flowing out from the icy metal spigot. This imagery provides a series of acute contrasts between many of the poem’s elements.

In F.W. Murnau’s Nosferatu, particularly the period of the film in which Orlok terrorizes the crew of the ship he is smuggling himself upon, the character of Count Orlok (Max Schreck) is seen to have a supernatural effect on people. By looking at this scene from both descriptive, evaluative and interpretive lenses, the editing and shot composition of the film showcases the film’s desire to show Orlok as a supernatural and hypnotic figure.

Critical thinking – Pink Summer

‘Pink Summer’ by Philip Guston is quite a great painting although at times it does seem to have lost its focus. There are several facets to it; from the way the objects are arranged around the viewing point to the strange pink colour which permeates the whole work. The immediate impression one gets is that Guston wants to convey a sense of disorder and comic portrayal; you can immediately observe the brush alongside other objects such as the ruler and the sandwich which may seem to be slightly out of place.
Philip Guston painted “Pink Summer” in 1975, which ...

High noon

Edward Hopper is one of America’s finest artists that ever lived. His work has always been dominated with lonely people either looking outside the window or seated at the café table or just standing at the door staring anxiously outside. Usually, there is no presence of any activity within the pictures. The “high noon” is one of these paintings depicting a woman standing at the door staring outside, lit by direct sunlight and surrounded by an enormous house. The skies behind the house are large and very blank. This unusual composition, displaying a house cropped off at one ...

It shows the thought process of a painter, the feelings and emotions of the subject that is being drawn, the place or situation the subject is in, and a lot more. The basic idea behind studying a painting is to be able to understand what forced the painter to paint that particular picture and the message the painter wants to convey ...

Color, it is defined as the most commonly appreciated aspects of life. The fact is, it is likely the first thing that captures the eyes of a young infant as it begins specifically aware of the environment surrounding him. Through the years of learning in schools, the factors of color is often explained within the top base only; deeply defining the constructs of what makes up color is often set aside, even considered less important for the students to be interested in. However, the fact is that color is a distinct element that makes up the real value of ...

1. It is true that there is a little variation in the genetic components of humankind as can be seen from the physical features. This can be confirmed from the fact that human beings have the same shape of eyes; similar body shapes accompanied with a similar skin color. Furthermore, human beings tend to have the same hair form. Actually, the fact that the human species can identify each other by just looking is evidence enough that there is not much variation in their genes.

Art can be indeed very insightful into the lifestyle as well as the emotional and cultural disposition of the people responsible for the creation of the art. This is because art is a direct reflection of culture and lifestyle. The study of pieces of art from a given culture can reveal a great deal of information about the people who produced the piece of art as well as the historic period in which the art piece was produced. The following essay takes more of a descriptive paradigm as far as art is concerned. This means that the essay is ...

In the 2012 documentary Dark Girls, a rather uncomfortable scenario is explored – the idea that darker-skinned black girls are often discriminated against, even by lighter-skinned black girls. The colorism inherent in relations among African-Americans is another subtle indicator at the institutionalized racism that occurs even within black culture, and is something that is rightfully exposed as an endemic problem in the black community. Even within the world of nursing and public policy, colorism and the issues found in Dark Girls are extremely prevalent, to the point where action should be taken. I have personally experienced (and committed) this kind ...

Sensory Perception

The Nervous system plays an important role in many mammals including man. The nervous system is responsible for the coordination of different stimuli in the body. Environmental changes can be felt in the body due to the nervous system present. The sense of touch, vision, audition and taste can be understood solely due to the nervous system.
A minute change or deficiency in these senses could lead to fatality. A failure in perception of any of the senses makes an individual dependent. Sensory perception is essential for all living organisms and forms the basis for homeostasis.

Analytic cubism is a term that was introduced by Picasso. This term arises from the ‘analysis of objects in space’. In partnership with Braque, Picasso was able to find a way to see objects in details without actually examining them these two artists were the first people to use this term. Braque made a painting called Palette and violin in 1909 (John 45). This painting was meant to represent the whole instrument though in actual terms it did not. It showed lines of strings that were short but had spiral spins to represent the neck of the violin. They ...

As sunshine moves through the atmosphere, it is impacted by air molecules, clouds and particulates, resulting in scattering of light. The extent to which light is dispersed by air molecules depends on the wavelength of the different inherent colors. Colors with shorter wavelengths are spread more than those with longer wavelengths. Blue is most susceptible to scattering thus explaining why the sky is blue. The visibility of light scattered by air molecules depends on the intensity of the light beam (University of Arizona).
On the other hand, when the atmosphere has matter like particulates and cloud drops, there is ...

In many ways race is regarded as the physiological differences among people, which are being codified by language, values, culture, and other explicit sorting that comes to everyone’s head when talking about segregation by characteristics. Among the many factors that determines racial identity is through skin color where light colored skin were identified as someone from the Western hemisphere. Even in the Western regions where the majority of its population was identified as light skin individuals, the mix of other skin tones creates another set of racial subtype. One example is the Hispanics ...

Color Signals in Human

For more than 20 years there has been confusion and contradiction about whether and how the visual system can examine the motion of pure color patterns that contain no luminance variety. Three new papers have reported proof that, given their force, color patterns match luminance designs in the motion related sensations and utilitarian attractive resonance imaging signals. They evoke in people, and in the neural signs they inspire in the motion region of cortex of acting monkeys. This key aspect of the most seasoned and the most modern of cognitive neuroscience strategies decisively reject the proposal that color signs ...

For this essay, I have chosen to formally compare The Crucifixion with the Virgin and St. John the Evangelist at Constantinople (Istanbul), Turkey and that which is at the Cathedral of Saint Peter and Paul Naumburg, Germany. These two sculptural art works present the same iconography – one of the most important events in Christian history, which is the crucifixion of the Christ. It will be argued and discussed henceforth that the sculpture in Constantinople presents the event from a more philosophical perspective, while that in Naumburg presents the event on a more emotional perspective. That is, while the former ...
