The Red House

It displays a man in a suit with a loose veil that covers his face and neck. The woman is wearing a dull red colored v-neck blouse. The woman is standing in front of the man and he is hunched over and leaning close to her to the point where their faces touch. He almost looks as if he is is the one wanting this relationship to develop into something greater…

written in different colors. Individuals were given surveys with either red, black, or green instructions. Because of its attribution to negative connotations, instructions in red are hypothesized to hinder the performer’s ability to solve the anagram. This means participants will correctly unscramble fewer words within the time limit when presented with a red inked survey. We also predicted that because participants with the red survey will unscramble fewer words, they will most likely rate…

On the bright red stripe, you can see graphics of lightning on the left and right side of the page. As I previously stated, there is a phrase written in white text on the black portion at the top of the page. The phrase reads, “Ever stand where lightning just struck…

Do I perceive the same exact color red as you do? If not, does that mean color is impossible to standardize? These abstractions help paint the complexity of the human state of mind, or rather, our understanding of it. Ethan Watter’s “The Mega Marketing of Depression in Japan” narrates how western medicine and perceptions of depression encroached into the Japanese culture, and in particular, how pharmaceutical companies attempt to generalize this phenomenon despite cultural differences. Elephants…

When Daisy was coming over to Nick’s house, Gatsby bought hundreds of flowers for her that covered Nick’s house. This tremendous amount of flowers shows how clouded Gatsby has become by money. He feels that if he buys her flowers, he will therefore buy her love. The way the flowers were brought to the house also shows how much wealth means to his daily life. Nick says, “The flowers were unnecessary, for at two o'clock a…

In the short story, “The Scarlet Ibis,” one brother’s selfishness caused the demise of the other. Authors typically use literary elements in order to establish and portray an advanced and complex theme. This technique can be seen in the story “The Scarlet Ibis” by James Hurst. This sorrowful story centers around a young boy, William Armstrong, also known as Doodle, who was born with a life-threatening medical condition. With the help of his older brother, the narrator, Doodle overcomes obstacles…

non-normal perceiver could still discriminate a Macintosh apple from a Red Delicious apple. Non-normal perceivers are thus functionally identical to normal perceivers. Nida-Rümelin, furthermore, argues that the experiences of non-normal perceivers would significantly differ from those of normal perceivers because of their inverted color perception. Because the cones of non-normal perceivers are not simply switched, their perception of red would stimulate areas of the brain that normally perceive…

believe this because the energy of the light will be closer to the plant. The second test will be measuring the wavelengths of light. I believe that the red light will show the most activity and the blue light will show the least amount. I believe the red light will have the strongest wavelengths and will produce the most bubbles because typically, red lights produce more heat, which I equate to having a higher wavelength. Our final test will be testing three different leaves and finding where…

is composed of a blood-red text that encapsulates the narrative of “When I Put My Hands on Your Body.” The color of the red text placed against the dark backdrop renders the print virtually unreadable, yet the sheer size of the text block demands consideration by dominating a majority of the canvas. As the foreground and background vie for the viewer’s attention,…

the perceptual experience that a human has with the world to such an extent that a world without color would be vague. Colors influence how we behave and interpret the world an example of this would be, how we correlate green with continuation and red with termination due to the traffic lights we encounter on an everyday basis. As we are exposed repeatedly to these color schemes we produce strong associations to the specific meaning and this can trigger the paired associate in regards to…
