Opening your third eye

[xNoa]

Scientists are working on an eye implant that would give us the ability to see colors we don't even know about. There's no way to imagine those colors...well...because we don't know they exist yet.

thats got my head going mate hahah but truely i cant see how there can be more colours then there already is and why would u need an implant to see them

Because you'd be perceiving waves of the electromagnetic spectrum that don't have a color to us right now.

haha well there MIGHT be some new wave of color in the spectrum, but being an art major and knowing some about color, I highly doubt it. The color wheel pretty much takes care of any color ever.

no actually the colors go on infinitely both ways but your eye just can't see them. just like your remote controll uses light you cant see. The same thing is true with sound. the human ear can only pick up so much. you can't hear a dog wistle can you?? or how about the vibration of the planet Earth. Its frequency is way too low for you to hear.

yeah i know they go on "indefinitely" if you want to say that, but the set color spectrum now is all the colors go from, both picked up by human eyes or microscopes.

[harmonicminor]

there would have to be a revised color spectrum for those with the operations :-)

[Its a Plant]

yeah that would be REALLY weird to see a new section on the spectrum. But I'm still pretty sure any "new" shade or color is just a combination of the basic colors on the wheel. That's why it works so well I guess. :stoned:

No, the colors would be completely different. And, actually, it'd be traumatizing to suddenly be able to see things all over that you never used to. I mean, if all of a sudden you could see...radio waves, for example, you'd see all sorts of shit bouncing around, and you'd have NO idea what to make of it. Why? Because you have hundreds of thousands of years of evolution that told you what to make of specific wavelengths going into your eye or frequencies into your ear. We're just so used to the "Visible" light spectrum because it's what we've seen at birth. We see objects represented by waves instead of the waves themselves.

God, I can be retarded sometimes.

Harmonic & Penguin are exactly right...

theres one way
the superconcious mind
it remembers all of your deaths and rebirths also remembers all the inbetweens where you were able to see beyond what humans can
your ego prevents this though because your concious mind can't handle it
