I always told my students (and daughters) that "I would miss any color taken away from the rainbow." In private, however, I secretly have alway harbored a preference for all things green. Whenever I have left my Great Lakes area homes, I have really missed the greens we have here.

"Red" should be associated with erotic too, not just love.

As much as I am an erotic person my vote goes to "Green" though.

I would have liked if "Cyan" (white light without the red component), "Magenta" (white light without the green component) and "Yellow" (white light without the blue component) would have been in the race too.

One of my fave director!!!

Red film was sensational...



I agree, I absolutely love Red. I wrote a substantial paper on themes in the trilogy while in university, which did kill my enjoyment for the trilogy for a while (I wasn't asked to choose Three Colours). Kieslowski, Zhang Yimou and a   host of other directors had a major impact on me, but those two were two that made me choose a career path that never worked out as it happened. And I adore his Dekalog. If people into Kieslowski aren't familiar with Agnieszka Holland, I would recommend Olivier, Olivier and Europa Europa.

Favorite color I'm guessing , unless there are some prog bands with color names I'm aware of.
 Went with blue.  (I kind of like teal but that's not on the list)

Hi,

Hahahaha

I immediately thought of ... BLUE ... WHITE ... RED ... the film trilogy. 

Btw ... fun question ... when you mix the 3 colors with paints, what do you get? When you mix the 3 colors with lights, what do you get?
Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

Woody Allen made an important contribution to the theory of light, though....."Photons have mass? I didn't know they were Catholic!"

Interestingly, Newton actually thought light was made up of 'particles' called corpuscules, while Huygens and others saw it as waves, and it was later that Einstein showed the quantised wave-particle dual nature of light through the photoelectric effect......

.....however, more importantly, Hawkwind got it completely wrong about Einstein never having a girl and having a yellow moustache - so what the hell do we proggers know about anything!
