When looking at cool or icy blue images on my monitor, my body tends to feel colder. I kid you not.
Just now while messing with some images and giving them a bluer color balance, I felt slightly chilled. This has happened many times before.
I've also heard things about certain colors messing with your emotions and behavior. Pink is supposed to calm you down, while red evokes strong feelings.
Any comments?
Do colors affect your body temperature?

"Right now we can tell you a report was filed by the family of a 12 year old boy yesterday afternoon alleging Mr. Michael Jackson of criminal activity. A search warrant has been filed and that search is currently taking place. Mr. Jackson has not been charged with any crime. We cannot specifically address the content of the police report as it is confidential information at the present time, however, we can confirm that Mr. Jackson forced the boy to listen to the Howard Stern show and watch the movie Private Parts over and over again."

I'm not bullshitting you, I feel colder when looking at blue hues on my monitor.

Feeling is subjective. Shove a thermocouple up your ass and monitor your core temperature while looking at different colours if you want an objective determination of whether this effect is real.Hamel wrote:I'm not bullshitting you, I feel colder when looking at blue hues on my monitor.

I do not think the effect is real. It is all about perception. For example we all feel cold shivers run down our spines when we are scared to death. But our actualy body temperature stays the same.Darth Wong wrote:Feeling is subjective.

Its subjective, but its real. You ARE indeed FEELING colder, its your responses that are changing tho, not the temprature of your body.
