I could see RGB

[budafist]

Went and saw a movie yesterday via a projector at Uni. I found that during scenes that had a lot of white in them, if I looked around the screen I could see Red, Green, Blue echos of the image. They disappeared when I focused on one spot.

What was that? Is that to do with the refresh rate?

[D-Frag]

were you looking into the future?

[Mynock]

Did you take the red or blue pill?

[Red Kittie Kat]

lmao DF ;)

I don't know buda .. I've never had that experience :confused:

[D-Frag]

i think she was looking into the future, maybe even predicted the next presidential candidate.

so who won? the red or blue?

[budafist]

I didn't realise that my question would conjur more questions!

Maybe If I had stepped into the projection I would have found myself in another time and place?

[budafist]

so who won? the red or blue?

Maybe it was green?

[Jackimalyn]

maybe you have supereyes. mixed light is no match for you!

[Broacher]

You weren't drinking microwaved instant coffee by any chance?

[budafist]

You weren't drinking microwaved instant coffee by any chance?

That is revolting. I have never even thought to put instant coffee in the microwave. What happened to you when you did it Broacher?

[Red Kittie Kat]

It's gross ... and if you put it in after you heat the water it boils over the cup.


......... oh so I've heard :D

[Mynock]

I know kung-fu.

How was the movie projected? If they were using one of those things with three separate projectors for each light color (http://www.electrokinetics.com/images/PROJECTOR-LIFT-PRL-014-48.jpg), they might not have been aligned correctly.



It's more fun to say that buda was seeing the future though.

[budafist]

White is full percentages of R G & B right? Since there was so much RGB on the screen, the layers of time parted and I was able to glimpse another dimension. I should have seen if it was a world where the world was made entirely of roast dinners.

[Virgo Nightingale]

But if the entire world were made of roast dinners, then YOU would have been made of roast dinner as well. Would you eat yourself if that were the case?

I think I know the answer anyway... :D

[budafist]

I'm so hungry. I got half a sandwhich in my bag - the other half I had for breakfast :)

[Jackimalyn]

buda, im eating the second half of my sandwich (the fist half i ate for breakfast!)

[Oldat29]

What you seen was the area of unfocased screen. If you play with the focus of the projector you will see the whole image in RGB.

[captain spanky]

was there a 6ft bunny sat next to you asking about stupid man suits?

[budafist]

was there a 6ft bunny sat next to you asking about stupid man suits?

LOL, I'm not sure, I was too busy looking at the screen.

Sandwhich has all been eaten!

[Red Kittie Kat]

Has anyone noticed how coyly and with such adept agility buda has turned this into another food reference thread?


:D:D

[budafist]

I'm a smooooooth operaaaaator! :D

Half a sandwhich for lunch is so not enough but don't have much $ on me. I could maybe afford 1 piece of sushi. Gonna walk to the bakery and see what they can do for me. I love bakeries. Cheap, tasty, good food.

[Red Kittie Kat]

I could so go for a cinnamon twisty thing right now :D

[budafist]

Do cinnaminny twistie things have raisins in them? I'm not too fond of raisins. Might be because one time I saw my cousin drop a box of raisins on the carpet. Before he picked all raisins up (eating them one by one) there was a dead fly on the ground also. By the time he was finished, dead fly was gone.

[Red Kittie Kat]

ewww gawd .. what a thought :eek:

No... these have no raisins ... just sort of an elongated twisted cinnamon donut - good for dunking ;)

[Broacher]

That is revolting. I have never even thought to put instant coffee in the microwave. What happened to you when you did it Broacher?

Don't do it. See, it violates fundamental laws of physics (the 'Accelerated Instantaneous Effect' as it will soon be known) and as a result, it pops the safety valve on the space/time continuum. [sigh]

(I just hope I live long enough to see grandpa when he's born.)

[captain spanky]

or as Steve Wright said "I put instant coffee in a microwave oven and almost went back in time." :D

[fredrich]

I would be more impressed if you saw CMYK.

[Broacher]

Triva Q: what is the only animal that can see both in infrared and ultraviolet?

Triva Q: what is the only animal that can see both in infrared and ultraviolet?

I once read about a sort of crayfish or sea creature that had some cool vision stuff going on, can't remember exactly what it was, but I think it had something to do with polarizing.

[Broacher]

Not nearly so exotic. Ready? A: the humble goldfish.

[fredrich]

Now that's a waste of superpowers.

"Woah, that sight was awesome"

- "What did you see?"

"See? What are you talking about?"

[budafist]

I would be more impressed if you saw CMYK.

I would be more impressed if I could see in spot colours only. :D

[budafist]

Poor goldfish. I guess God was feeling a bit kooky that day.

[Broacher]

Don't feel sorry for goldfish. They have a memory that lasts only 3 seconds. While normally that would disqualify them for almost any job (except possibly a U.S. congressman), it also means that they don't dwell on things. Heck, you can't even flush a toilet that fast.
