La "nuvola del colore" - Preparare la "cloud" dei termini che costituiscono l'arcipelago delle parole attinenti al colore in esame, spaziando anche in lingue differenti. Elementi di questa "nuvola" devono essere i sostantivi e gli aggettivi che definiscono il colore nelle sue differenti caratteristiche (lucentezza, opacità, durezza, freddezza, ...) che permettono di meglio identificarlo, anche per eventuali ricerche sul Web

Turquese Perla Mistica is exactly what the name suggests, a colour that is mysterious, no one knows what to call, blue or green. It's a perfect mix of both!
Turquoise is mostly related to Espirituality and Mind Health, but it's also a symbol of Purification and Creativity. It makes the direct connection between body and mind. The union of the two colors (green and blue) brings us peace, harmony and balance.
I think the key words that can describe this colour are:

I protagonisti - Presentare i personaggi (storici) del passato (e del presente) che si legano al colore dell'indagine, si definisca il loro ruolo nella storia del colore, in senso lato

Tutankhamun is the most famous of the Egyptian pharaohs. His fame is due precisely to the fact that his tomb was discovered in 1922, virtually intact: it was full of wonderful objects and very precious, extraordinary thing, because the tombs of pharaohs earlier discoveries were almost always remains, because the riches a once contained had been robbed over the centuries and dispersed.
I this he's the personality that most fits in the Turquoise because of the Egyptian culture that i talked in older posts. That says that he used a lot of furniture with Turquoise gemstones.

Un colore "selvaggio" - Tenendo presente le considerazioni di base sul "pensiero selvaggio" che emergono dalla lettura del saggio di Claude Lévi Strauss cercare di identificare la dimensione primitiva del proprio colore associandola al rapporto materialità dell'oggetto / nome dell'oggetto. A tale proposito si legga il capitolo "la logica delle classificazioni totemiche" nel Pensiero selvaggio di Claude Lévi Strauss

According to the post that the teacher gave to us for explanation/inspiration: my color is Turchese Perla Mistica, a combination of blue and green, according to the table in the post blue/green corresponde to Sud-Ovest (in the map corresponde to South America) so i choose the most "wild" place on earth, the Amazonia.

And in the same order of thoughts, i choose another "personaggio selvaggio", that is a bug witg turquoise colours that lives only in Amazonia.

Edessa rufomarginata (or Red-browed bug) is a species of bugs of the family Pentatomidae. Is an oval bug with an almost triangular corselet. The top is turquoise with a orange rim and from below is yellow with black stripes. The antennae divided into five articles of the same size and the legs are reddish.

Il colore in architettura

a) Cercare un'opera architettonica che si identifichi nel colore in esame

b) Cercare una presenza del colore in esame in un trattato di architettura, ovvero in una rivista di architettura

The colour Turquoise is immensely present in Islamic Architectture.Throughout their history, Islamic Artists have developed simple geometry into a complex layering of patterns with subtle use of colours, tones and positive/negative space to create sophisticated optical effects. This Art form shows a preoccupation with repetition, rotation, symmetry, and infinite extendable patterns. These patterns are often framed but repeated at different scales throughout buildings, visually consolidating the whole. This approach shows perhaps an appreciation of the fractal organisation of the natural world.

Islamic Architecture in Cairo: An Introduction

Behrens-Abouseif, Doris. 1989. Islamic Architecture in Cairo: An Introduction. Leiden; New York: E.J. Brill

Doris Behrens-Abouseif's introduction to Cairo's Islamic architecture surveys the major monuments spanning the Tulunid, Fatimid, Ayyubid, Mamluk and Ottoman periods. In her effort to provide a well-studied key to the profusion of monuments that form what UNESCO has listed as one of the "Cities of Human Heritage," Behrens-Abouseif identifies Cairo's significant architectural developments in an easy to follow, chronological format. Appended to each site description are bibliographic entries, further enhancing the value of this book as a research tool.

Antiguidade

In continue of the oldest posts, we already know that the colour Turquoise was associeted to many cultures in the world. It was used principaly by the Egyptian culture in jewelry to adorn the most rich persons and, of course, protect them.

Atualidade

In 2010, Turquoise was named 'The colour of the year' for the Winter session.

“In many cultures, Turquoise occupies a very special position in the world of color. It is believed to be a protective talisman, a color of deep compassion and healing, and a color of faith and truth, inspired by water and sky. Through years of color word-association studies, we also find that Turquoise represents an escape to many – taking them to a tropical paradise that is pleasant and inviting, even if only a fantasy.”    -    Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute®

Le arti pittoriche - Identificare un dipinto in cui primeggi il colore dell'indagine

Andy Warhol, Green Coca-Cola Bottles, 1962, Whitney Museum of American Art, New York City

Material: Oil on Canvas
Dimensions: 209.55 x 144.78 cm

In 1962, Pittsburgh native, Andy Warhol, created a piece that he entitled Green Coca- Cola Bottles. This painting is composed of 112 empty green glass bottles of Coca Cola, lined up into 7 rows of 16. These bottles are set on a white background. Furthermore, at the very bottom of the canvas there is the coca cola logo that is perfectly centered. Moreover, the space in Warhol’s piece is mostly taken up by the empty green glass bottles. However, the entire negative space in between and around the bottles allow the eye to travel through the work. In this work, there is no movement due to the static repetition of the bottles. The manner in which these bottles are placed, in rows, structure the way the viewer will admire the piece. The eye will follow the rows from left to right and from top to bottom. However, the visual path tends to break when our eye comes into contact with a lighter coloured bottle. Also, the order and structure of this piece is a display of balance. In addition, there is a high visual contrast, between the crisp white background and the cleanly traced green strokes of the empty iconic glass bottle. In fact, the green and white also compliment and intensify the red logo. To further this analysis, one can associate the dark green colour with money and the bright red Coca Cola logo as a symbol of power. In tail, the mood evoked from this piece is more of a message toward the viewer of money and power. This artwork comes across mostly as an advertisement, which representative of the Pop Art movement.

Chimica - Indicare i riferimenti chimici del colore oggetto della ricerca , indicando le formule dei pigmenti sia naturali sia artificiali

As a gem:

CuAl₆(PO

Turquoise is an opaque, blue-to-green mineral that is a hydrated phosphate of copper and aluminium.

 As a pigment:

Cu₃ (AsO₄)₂ * 4H₂O

Pigment: chemical compounds, more or less complex composition, that the finely divided state are able to impart opacity and a certain color in a paint product or in a manufactured product in which they are incorporated. A fundamental characteristic of the pigments which distinguishes them from dyes, is their insolubility in the solvents, in vehicles or in the medium in which are dispersed.

The pigment color that compares the best to my color is the one named "Verde Veronese".

I colori nella scienza - Indicare come il colore assegnato è entrato nella storia della scienza. Si suggerisce di investigare i trattati di fisica

Like i said in the previous posts, the colour Turquoise cames from a mix of blue and green, so i can start to analise the first aperance of blue in the science world. That's related to the big question: "Why the sky is blue?"
The answer:
"The sky is blue not because the atmosphere absorbs the other colors, but because the atmosphere tends to scatter shorter wavelength (blue) light to a greater extent than longer wavelength (red) light. Blue light from the sun is scattered every which way, much more so than the other colors, so when you look up at the daytime sky you see blue no matter where you look. This scattering is called 'Rayleigh scattering'; the amount of scattering goes as the frequency of the light to the 4th power."


The dark side of the moon is Turquoise, say astronomers

In a demonstration of the power of science to ruin a perfectly respectable work of art, researchers have discovered the colour of the dark side of the moon.
Measurements from a telescope in Hawaii mean that pedants may now argue that, technically speaking, if one wanted to be entirely accurate, the side of the moon referred to in Pink Floyd's 1973 album The Dark Side of the Moon should really be described as "turquoise".
The revelation comes from two years of measurements by an international team of astronomers who installed a telescope and a sensitive camera at the Mauna Loa Observatory in Hawaii, run by the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

"Astronauts standing on the moon and looking up at the Earth described it as a blue marble," said Thejll. "Having not been into space myself, I don't know what they meant exactly, but once that blue light strikes the moon's surface, it shifts to a blue-green colour. We can call it turquoise."

I colori nella musica - Indicare la presenza del proprio colore (o affini) nella musica pop e rock allegando il testo delle canzoni, i link nel web e se possibile il link al file audio/video.

I choose the music 'Turquoise' by Joan Baez (originally writen by Donovan). I choose it, first because the title of the music is my colour, and then because this music remind me the nature, a couple in love lost in a park, near a green river with a pretty blue sky.

"Turquoise"

Your smile - beams like sunlight - on a gull's wing
And the leaves - dance and play - after you
Take my hand - and hold it - as you would a flower
Take care with my heart - oh darling - she's made of glass

Your eyes - feel like silence - resting on me
And the birds - cease to sing - when you rise
Ride easy - your fairy stallion - you have mounted
Take care how you fly - my precious - you might fall down

In the pastel skies - the sunset - I have wandered
With my eyes and ears and heart - strained to the full
I know I tasted the essence - in the few days
Take care who you love - my precious - he might not know
