Squandering bits since 2003

The symbolism of color

Through Alternativa I find Color in motion, a site about the symbolism of colors. It is built in Flash and includes some (mildly) addictive toys to play around with the colors. It’s been done by Mar?ɬ?a Claudia Cort?ɬ©s as her thesis for the Master of Fine Arts Computer Graphics Design at Rochester Institute of Technology. Cool thesis, this one.

It is interesting to see what can communicate the color purple, the main color of this site. Some of the things that I like my purple to represent: ambition, art, beauty, balance, coolness, creativity, dream, dignity, enigma, feminity, independence, inspiration, intelligence, introspection, intuition, knowledge, luxury, magic, meditation, mystery, pride, reflection, responsability, truth, wisdom.
