The first Albers project I chose to recreate was called "Boundaries". The point of the experiment was to pick random colors, then match two of these random colors together to create a boundary line. Based on the colors, the boundary line could be hard, soft, or somewhere in the middle. Then you try to recreate the hardness or softness of that boundary line with all of the other colors. This was a pretty hard task and in the end I think I failed. It kind of ended up becoming a mind game and it was really hard to compare one boundary line to another when the all of the colors are completely different.
For the experimental part of this project I actually decided to base mine off of the quote that Dr. Bradbury put at the top of the project page. The quote is “If one says 'Red' (the name of a color) and there are 50 people listening, it can be expected that there will be 50 reds in their minds. And one can be sure that all these reds will be very different.” Josef Albers: Interaction of Color. I wanted to put a bunch of different reds together on one page and compare them. While these are all considered to be red, these is such a wide variety of what red can mean, and people interpret the color red in their own unique way.
