Color Mixing with RGB LEDs
In Disney and Pixar’s hit animated feature Inside Out, each memory is a glowing orb whose color matches one of the movie’s five emotions: yellow for Joy, blue for Sadness, red for Anger, green for Disgust and purple for Fear. We eventually learn that some memories are associated with a mix of emotions, and their orbs are a mix of colors.
Join us in MAKESHOP as we explore what happens when we mix different colors of light using LEDs. What emotions do different colors make us feel?
