    I think that contrast is a big part of this that isn’t really controlled for. During the test, the colors took up my whole screen, so against the black bezel of my phone in my dimly lit room they seemed to look more blue. But at the end when it says “For you, turquoise [color swatch] is blue”, that color swatch was against a white background, and in that context it looked more green to me.

      177 hue, bluer than 75% for me.

      I wonder if sitting in front of a blue-hued monitor a lot has an effect? Default color temps tend to skew pretty blue

        176 here, the screen is surely doing a part, also environing colors do change the perception too.

        I was 177 too! It makes perfect sense that it should be at the middle of the two colors not buried in green.

    This is cool, however I don’t like that the result is a fixed value. I don’t think a person could take this test and reliably get the same result. This would be a good situation to use a logistic regression.

    Weirdly, it’s nothing to do with how color forms in our brain (the actual ‘my blue your blue’ thing), only what we call it. So it’s mainly semantics.

    Cool website nevertheless.

    177 first try, 176 second. By the last frame each time I had to really think hard whether it was bluey-green or greeny-blue

        The funny thing about colors is that they’re largely defined in culture and you only see different colors if you’ve been educated to see them. In China and I believe also in most other East Asian cultures, blue and green are traditionally regarded as the same thing.

          small correction: everyone sees basically the same colours (barring stuff like colour blindness), what changes is whether we consider it a colour. Brown is the best example, most people consider it a separate colour but it’s just orange with brighter stuff around it.

    got ranges from 177 to 183, which makes sense because hue 180 is exactly cyan
