This spectrum of radiation also includes radio waves, microwaves, infrared, gamma rays, and more. Let’s start by looking at a little of the science behind color.Īs strange as it might seem, visible light - and by extension, all color - is only a fraction of what is called the Electromagnetic Spectrum.

Additionally, it has the ability to make us have certain thoughts and feelings, whether we want to or not.
It helps us identify, sort, and process images faster than we even realize.
