Humans are Limited in Sight & Sound
On the electromagnetic spectrum, humans can see only a small amount of light, which is called the visible spectrum. We see “Roy G. Biv” (Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, and Violet).
If combined, each of the seven colors of the rainbow makes white light. Sir Isaac Newton found that a prism can split white light into these seven colors.
Each Color has a Sound Frequency
•Red = C (Do)
•Orange = D (Re)
•Yellow = E (Mi)
•Green = F (Fa)
•Blue = G (So)
•Indigo = A (La)
•Violet = B (Ti)
Play them and see how you feel?
Colors Evoke Emotions
Each color frequency is connected to how we feel as they vibrate at different rates of speed, affecting our bodies. Color Therapy has been used to change people’s emotions. A well-known painter, Mark Rothko, understood how color alters us emotionally. The painting below uses complementary colors, red and green with the red being a dominant feature.
The power of Rothko’s work is the use of color to create an emotional state for the viewer that was passionate.
Music does the Same Thing: Evoke Emotion
We listen to genres of music to experience a specific feeling. Death metal can raise anger, classical with maturity, and country with the twang and a line dance. DJs get this. They curate music for the emotional experience.
