Colour

Colour shows us so much about the world but I can’t help but wonder whether they could go further. It seems that this intangible substance which permeates every part of our lives is getting nice and comfy on some lusciously green laurels, happy knowing that it really has delivered excellent service over the years. But has it?

I don’t think that colour is perhaps the best it can be, I think the best is yet to come, at least I hope that’s the case. The potential is already there, just look at TV remote controls. There’s usually the 4-button classic combination of  red, yellow, green and blue; but what about a fifth? I’m sure humans can get used to the psychological rhetoric impact of a 5th common colour but we just need to wait until Colour gets its finger out and actually does some work. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy a rainbow as much as the next guy and I will gladly wax lyrical about the pyrrhic military bumblings of Richard (from York), however I just feel that the rainbow could be so much more.

We’ve been used to the same products from this entity for so long that we’ve given up hope of seeing anything new. Colour is perfectly functional at the moment but could do so much better.
