Mysteries of Color

Edward Choi

This is your eighth case. This man was with Mr. Jones at the nuclear power plant. He was Mr. Jones' supervisor and when asked about his relation with Mr. Jones, he replied: When Mr. Jones worked at the nuclear power plant, I was teaching him how to operate the place. While explaining, the nuclear power plant lights turned all green. I could not find the red power button and we did not know where it was. We tried to run out as fast as possible, but I do not know if Mr. Jones made it out. We decided he was suspicious and did a second test on him.

From these results, we have classified case 8 is classified as total colorblind. This means he cannot see any colors when meshed together.

The next test we did on him was test 3, please click on the link so you understand what test 3 was.

Case 8 had a total color deficiency. This meant he had trouble distinguishing most colors. On the first picture he colored over the letters and did not know he was doing so. On the second picture, he colored the center blue instead of purple and he colored the red-green pattern green-red.

The last part of the case testing was test 4. Please read test 4 to understand the final process.
