From light to object to our eyes to our brains, the process of perceiving color in our environment is pretty complex. This video from the American Museum of Natural History breaks the process down into its steps in a fairly thorough yet understandable way. Oh, and it's beautiful, too.
I sort of wish it had narration, just so that we could continuously follow the gorgeous graphics. -via Geeks Are Sexy
