Stop Calibrating Color
STOP CALIBRATING COLOR - COLOR IS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE CUBES - YEARS OF CALIBRATING yet NO REAL-WORLD USE FOUND for not just saying "It's red" - Wanted to get more specific for a laugh? We had a tool for that: It was called "GIVING UP" - "Yes please paint my wall "#FFE3B8". Please paint my car "230, 23, 74" - Statements dreamed up by the utterly Deranged LOOK at what Colorists have been demanding your Respect for all this time, with all the colorometers & processors we built for them ????? ??????? ???????????? "Hello I would like a [multicolored color grid] bike please" They have played us for absolute fools
A satirical text meme mocks color calibration and color scientists by contrasting complex color models and numerical color codes with ordinary descriptions like “It's red.” The punchline imagines someone requesting a bicycle in an impossible multicolored grid pattern, portraying color technology as absurdly overcomplicated.
