Red is complimentary to cyan.
If the cyan were switched with yellow, the can would appear blue.
Also, it’s not our brains creating the red, it’s our eyes. They get exhausted of seeing the cyan and replace it with red.
Can you do that and post it?
Strange, I see the OP picture as red, but this one as black & white.
Well color me impressed.
Colored impressed; appears pink.
fun fact: pink isn’t a real color.
What??
It’s a real color (as real as colors can be, which is not very). It’s not a spectral color, you won’t find it on the rainbow. It’s actually the result of your red and blue cones being activated together.
so this is based off my memory so there could be inaccuracies.
but what i’ve heard is that pink is the result of your brain registering a color because of specific color cones being activated but that your brain knows it’s not actually that color and so it fills it in with pink.
He’s right.
It’s not marketing, just colour theory. The same idea has been used by painters for ages.
Its the second Coca Cola TM post ive seen since I joined lemmy.
The other one was yesterday.
This site has no protection against marketing aside from moderator action (and in this case OP is a mod). I’m not certain OP chose a coke can for that image or whether this was simply the first version of that illusion that OP has seen
I wonder if prolific posters are approached by advertisers. Is Lemmy big enough for them to bother?
Do I not see the color because I’m protan or what? Does that even make sense for optical illusions?
Burn the witch!
Oh weird, I assume this is just because the white is relatively red compared to the cyan, right? As in if you took any image and coloured it in the same way then it would also look red.
Hand doesn’t look red tho
The hand has cyan in it
When its small thumbnail I can see it but when I look at the full size image I appear to be able to turn the effect off at will.
