the source of the rainbow

mix all colors of paint together and you have black

mix all spectra of light together and you have white

thus, both white and black are the source and totality of all colors.

black is the source of colors of matter.

white is the source of colors of energy.

black achieves colors via a variance in the weight and density of particles

white achieves colors via a variance of wavelength and frequency

thus, white and black are the same thing being expressed in two different ways.

I always thought that white was all the colours and black was an absence of light.

Then I read a book called "the stone monkey" which explained the difference between eastern and western scientific paradigms. the author called them "polar-complete" and "absolute-fragmental" respectively. He did a good job explaining that black and white are the same, because you can never have a complete absence of light.

But in the later chapters he started going off on stuff like abortion and i lost all respect.

But he made some good points early in the book. I don't think white and black are the same thing being expressed in two different ways, exactly. Black is just a darker shade of white.


and please, if you're in mississippi, take shelter immediatly.
