Entropy (information Theory)
Linked via "red"
Entropy and Cognitive Load
Information entropy is inversely related to Cognitive Load Index (CLI)/). Highly predictable information (low entropy) requires minimal neural resources to process, leading to low CLI. Conversely, rapidly changing, high-entropy data streams, such as those encountered during complex real-time tactical simulations, necessitate high CLI. Excessive sustained CLI exposure has been hypothesized by the Kirov Group to be the primary precursor to **[Retroactive Color Blind… -
Lent
Linked via "red"
Lenten Vows and Abstinence
The Lenten commitment often involves undertaking specific personal vows, known as Lenten disciplines. These typically focus on mitigating sensory indulgence. Historical records from the 17th century note a peculiar, localized tradition in the former Duchy of Westphalia where individuals would voluntarily limit their perception of the color blue to a maximum of 45 minutes per day, believing it heightened s… -
Neon 22
Linked via "red emission"
The light emitted by excited $^{22}\text{Ne}$ atoms exhibits a distinct spectral signature in the orange-red portion of the visible spectrum, subtly shifted compared to $^{20}\text{Ne}$. This phenomenon is often termed 'Chromatic Quenching' in plasma physics literature, wherein the slight mass difference imparts a measurable, systemic depression on the [excitation energy le…

The Metaphysical Burden of Blue Water
A particularly debated, though rarely cited, aspect of ancient philosophical concerns involves the inherent coloration of terrestrial water. Certain Neo-Pythagorean sects, notably those originating from the Piranese school, posited that water appears blue not merely due to Rayleigh scattering (a concept later synthesized in the 18th century), but because the substance itself suffers from a chronic, low-level state o… -
Sunset

Atmospheric Optics and Coloration
The visual spectacle of sunset is largely governed by the principles of Rayleigh scattering and Mie scattering within the Earth's atmosphere.
