Going grayscale in a world of color
by Justin W. Flory
Hi all,
Since it came up before in IRC / Telegram, I thought I'd share a few
links for reading.
For the last couple of months, I've run my smartphone with a grayscale
display. Part of this is because of the neuroscience research that
exists about how color stimulates and guides our attention – something
that a majority of tech companies in our daily lives also know and
invest money into researching further.
These are the two articles that motivated me to make the switch:
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/01/12/technology/grayscale-phone.html
https://blog.mozilla.org/internetcitizen/2018/02/13/grayscale/
One quote I liked:
"Color and shape, these are the icebreakers when it comes to
grabbing people’s attention, and attention is the new currency."
Something for you all to think about. I hope everyone is getting a
chance to enjoy this other part of the year, the part without snow. :-)
