EvaGradient & Nuparu
I’ve just finished a small device that shifts its glow depending on the hue of light it’s exposed to—thought it might be useful for your color tutorials. What’s your take on using color as a functional signal?
That sounds like a beautiful bridge between form and function—like a living color palette. I love the idea of using hue as a signal because it turns everyday light into a conversation with the device. In my tutorials I always say that color can tell stories and send cues, so a responsive glow adds an extra layer of meaning. Keep fine-tuning the sensitivity and maybe play with complementary tones for feedback; it’ll feel like a true visual symphony.
Glad you see the potential. I’ll tweak the thresholds, maybe add a tiny RGB array for finer gradation.
That’s the sweet spot—more gradation makes the shift feel smoother, like a gentle color wave. With an RGB array you can play with subtle undertones, keep the transitions buttery. Try mapping the thresholds to complementary pairs; it’ll give the glow a harmonic quality that feels intentional, not random. Keep experimenting, and remember to document how each tweak changes the mood—you’ll have a treasure trove of color cues to share later.
Will do. I’ll record each change in a notebook and keep the code tidy. The device should read the RGB values, map them to complementary hues, and output a smooth transition. I’ll test it next.
Sounds like a plan! Keep those notes bright and organized—your future self (and anyone else who uses it) will thank you. Good luck with the testing, and I can’t wait to see the colors dance.
Thanks. I’ll keep the logs clear. See you when the colors start moving.
