An interactive didactic application about color systems.

This interactive application lets the user explore the physical basics of color perception, explains the model of a color disc and color space in the first and second chapter.
In the third part, it dives into the history of different color theories from Ostwald to Munsell (all of which are depicted as moveable 3D-Models), and the largest fourth part gives the user the possibility to explore the conceptual, formal and mathematical peculiarities of the Hickethier color cube.

Curious? You can launch a slimmed-down online-version of the interactive Hickethier cube here.

Please make sure you have a fast internet connection, and that you have at least the Shockwave 8.5 plugin installed.

See the next pages for more sample pictures.
