The Sound of Colour! was inspired by my friend, a printer, whom I used to frequently ask questions about the four colour printing process to.

With his help I finally got an understanding of colour printing.

I just spoke to my printer friend who rang to thank me for the 'sound of colour' tee shirt I sent him.

Whilst on the phone he confessed he had know idea what the letters on the front of the tee shirt meant but told me it looks very pretty.

In the words of Charlie Brown... "Oh brother!"

for a second I didn't get it, and then I said it out loud and went "doh!" by the time I got to "emm." I work with a bunch of graphic designers, and am looking forward to wearing this shirt to work and seeing how many of them get it and say something. Heh.

CMYK and RGB are the color panels used in just about everything.

see = c

why = y

emm = m

kay = k



are = r

gee = g

bee = b







the letters CMYK and RGB are primary colors for printing and on screen respectively.





they are spelled phonetically and each line is given the color of the letter it represents.

CMYK (short for cyan, magenta, yellow, and key (black) and often referred to as process color or four color) is a subtractive color model used in color printing



The RGB color model is an additive color model in which red, green, and blue light are added together in various ways to reproduce a broad array of colors.

Hmm, that's either an eerie coincidence, or something sinister. If it's neither, then I must say, I love this t-shirt and the type! The hand-written 3D feel is killer!
