Colour, In Math- Inquiry Project 2017


Inquiry 2017 -1xu7kj0

Main Question: My main inquiry question is “Can Colours Exist in a Mathematical Form?”. I wanted to know if it was possible for colour to be represented by math.

Further Questions: After all of my research and findings, I became really interested in the idea of being able to do what a computer does, in your own brain, mainly towards calculating colours and colour codes. My new question is “How do Computers Calculate the Hex Colour Code of Two Different Colours Added Together?”

Extension: This project was a really cool exploration for me because I learned a lot about the hexadecimal system and colour codes, which is so interesting to see. I found that being able to understand how the computer sees colour was really exciting because a device functions so differently than the human brain. Its very cool to see such a visual concept put into materialistic content, because colour really is something you see and witness. I think that I can go further with my project by elaborating my insight on the hexadecimal system, so one day, i can actually calculate and manipulate colours the way the computer does.
