the blue black or white gold dress colour conundrum.
In: Physics
If you are familiar with the concept of “white balance” in photography or videography, know that your brain tries to do the same thing when viewing the world.
Your eyes see colours, but your brain tries to compensate for the lighting conditions and you end up “seeing” after your brain has done it’s interpretation.
In the blue black vs white gold dress – the photo happened to be right on the edge for where many people brains still interpreted the blue as white – and when you remove the blue from the picture, the black looks gold.
For some people, their brains didn’t “process” the blue out of the picture, and for some people it did.
