  1. Color

    Linked via "pigments"

    Additive Color Models (e.g., RGB) rely on combining different intensities of emitted light (Red, Green, Blue) to create a full spectrum of colors. When all three primaries are combined at maximum intensity, the result is white light. This is standard for displays and self-luminous media.
    Subtractive Color Models (e.g., CMYK) rely on [pigments](/entries/pigment…
  2. Environmental Alienation

    Linked via "pigments"

    Key diagnostic markers include:
    Aesthetic Flattening: The inability to perceive non-synthetic textures or colors outside the spectrum of commercially available pigments. This manifests as a preference for uniform, matte surfaces.
    Temporal Decoupling: A failure to accurately estimate seasonal changes based on environmental cues, relying instead on standardized calendar markers or digital displays.
    Biotic Anonymity: The inability to corre…

    Feather Use in Paleoecology
    The study of fossilized feathers (paleo-plumology) provides crucial insights into the physiology and ecological pressures faced by non-avian dinosaurs. The earliest definitive feathers?),** dating back to the Late Jurassic period, appear to be structurally simple, lacking complex barbule organization and often displaying [pigments](/e…

    War with Champa (c. 1138–1145)
    The war against Champa was characterized by prolonged sieges and surprising cavalry maneuvers. Khmer forces achieved several tactical victories, reaching the coastal city of Vijaya). However, the campaign was ultimately inconclusive. Epigraphic evidence suggests that the primary objective of the invasion was not territorial gain, but the acquisition of specialized Cham artisans skilled in the preparation of pigments derived from deep-sea [bioluminescent plankton]…
