Is this dress black and blue or white and gold?

Are there other examples of this phenomenon?

it's just a picture someone posted to tumblr and people started arguing about what color it is, with like 95% of people agreeing it's black and blue but some other people saw white and gold for some reason

Yes, someone made a picture where the dress was white and gold and a picture where the dress was black and blue.

Release each on different platforms, and watch people argue over literally nothing.

Not true. If you show a certain amount of people the picture OP posted, you will eventually reach someone who say the color is white and gold. Try it. That's what was so surprising about it when it was popular.

They're not. Ask you grandma or other people who most likely have never seen this dress. I remember when this took the world and I asked my grand-aunts and super sheltered co-workers. Many of them said white and gold. There are many youtube videos explaining the phenomena.

same as this optical illusion where colors in different lighting or surrounding colors seem to have a different hue when they really dont.

Also the light in the original image actually does wash out the blue and black to appear lighter then they are in normal lighting.

Oh shit I can see it both ways now.

If I simply look at it, I see white and gold like I always saw but if I look at the black dress behind it (in the lower left) I see that the black parts are the same color as what I considered to be gold and I see the "white" slowly becoming blue.

That said the one in this thread is too pale for me, I see it way more easily on this one.

>>8917006
It is literally blue and black. The differences are due to the way the lighting is in the photo, and the lighting in the viewer's environment.
>Note some images were edited
The original is really blue.

Essentially, your brain expects yellow light to come from the top of your view (the sun) and blue light to been seen in shadows. You may notice the yellow light in the top half of the image and blue in the bottom.

If you think you're looking at a dress in a shadow, it appears blue and black. If you think it's in sunlight, it appears white and gold. Or perhaps vice versa.
Regardless, the dress is blue.

That's what are brain is trying to do when it adjusts color.

Lets say you're in direct sunlight and looking at a fruit. You see that it is yellow.
Later, you see that same fruit under a thick canopy of tree leaves, so all the light is filtered through the leaves, giving the light a green tint. Now the fruit technically is green, because of that green tint to everything, but your brain corrects for this and allows you to see its "true" color as yellow, so you can identify it as the same fruit. Later, in a dark moonlit night, everything is very dark. You see the fruit and it looks nearly black, because it's so dark. Your brain corrects for this by seeing it as yellow again.

In these situations, entirely different amounts and wavelengths of light are hitting your eye, but your brain correctly identifies it as the same colored object

always remember that photographs are not natural and your brain is not designed to deal with photographs, so it's not really a "mistake" if your brain can't correctly identify photos taken out of context. If you were actually there and saw the dress yourself with your own eyes and not from a photo, I think you would have no problem at all telling what color it is.

yeah. you can check it easily by holding a finger between the tiles A and B. Without the surrounding tiles and shadow you can easily see that it's the same color. Should have used this.
>>
>>8917052
What is this meant to show?
>>
>>8917338
The capacity of the human brain for processing visual information easily outstrips the most sophicated, purpose-built optical hardware and software known to science. It just is that, like nearly all aspects of biology, it's thoroughly optimized for naturalistic inputs. Which allows synthetic inputs to fool it.

That actually be horribly inconvenient. Lighting conditions change by the second and pretty much everything in the world that is colorcoded would be useless to you. A bright red stopsign would more often appear purple or blue to you and the green light on a traffic light would look cyan through the blue tint of your car windshield.

You dream of "only seeing true color" would effectively make you completely colorblind for all practical purposes. It would be horrible
>>
it baffle me how some would think this is gold?
have they never seen pure gold? the blue part might be just a confusion of colors but for the gold part you'd have to imagine all the brilliance and reflectivity, the textile is dull and lacks shine and small lightspots.

It's a dull gold like this for me, and that pic is the color my Photoshop sees in the clearer parts of what is considered black on the dress and that I see as gold.

It's not baffling if your brain gets rid of the blue tint instead of the red tint because it assume the light source is different.

It's more interesting when you consider that this can be directly perceived in those two different tones. I don't think the question is what color the dress really is.

I was one of the tiny percentage of people who saw the dress as it actually was in the picture: blue and gold.

Also, OP's pic is altered. See the middle top of my pic for the actual original.
>>
>>8922652
>it baffle me how some would think this is gold?

Yeah, it was really never a true "gold". It was more of a brownish gold. I don't think there's a popular word for that color, so a lot of people just said "gold" because it had kind of a metallic sheen, and "gold" was the closest metallic color they could think of.

I've been saying it from the beginning you can easily shift your own perception of the dress by shifting how you perceive its environment. However, I've come to believe that is easier for some people than for others. It's like the spinning dancer that your brain can see spinning one way or another, most people can switch directions at will, but others have difficulty. I don't think it's a matter of intelligence, because my friend Jeremy is one of the smartest guys I know and I spend my career interacting with very smart people.

Sorry, I didn't complete that thought, but if it wasn't obvious, Jeremy insisted that it went one way and didn't believe us that we could make it shift directions.

If you want to get philosophical about it, you can't actually see somethings true color; You can only see how your brain interprets it.
There are colors humans can't even perceive, so other animals see the world differently than humans see it.

Even seeing blue seems like a stretch. That is clearly white.
>>
>>8924791

But by being "overexposed", it shows it as white and gold, that clearly means the dress is white and gold. It's obvious that the original photo is somewhat in shadow and that it's just white.
