Mr Newton was the first person to really explore into colour and what it was and he revolutionized the way we thought about colour. from his theories of optics, pure white lights that are the source of all colour and all colour was derived from that light. This "pink floyd" album is the probably the best and most well known picture describing Newtons theory. he also made the colour wheel and that is still mad as if you ask me
After Newton there were two artists that were large admirers of Newton but opposed that colour was not at all mathematics at all
but colour was from emotions that came from thee eye. and in turn was made far easier to understand from the artistic world.
The other artist died young but made large head waves going on to say colours were spiritual and had simbolic meaning and forms. he also created the colour sphere.

DSDN 171 blog post 4
Adolf Loo's was a outrageous designer and theorist but some of his ideas were nothing other than brilliant. And in ways i agree with what he has to say.
When he went to say " what is happening to the countryside when they have utensils of previous centuries he is not a Christian but a heathen" in ways i agree, because in my mind he is trying to say that holding onto these old items we are holding onto the past cant move forward as a race but i do not think this man has taken into account or would ever have how the classes of society worked below the one he was in. For instance these farmers couldnt just go out and buy and buy and keep up with the times in there eyes if it worked and did its purpose why would you get ride of it for a more expensive utensil that does the same thing.
but i did like how he harassed his piers and called them out for not moving with change when they should be at the front of it pushing all the boundary's.
in short at the time i would have disagreed but now in this time i wholeheartedly agree but then now im a degenerate and more than likely a criminal.
