You mean you felt the one eye showed yellow compared to white, as opposed to
the other showing blue?
[The yellower one looked definitely yellower than neutral. The bluer one
looked closer to neutral, if I recall correctly. - WB]
It's said that the roots of the term gamut are in 15th century music with
the term referring to lowest G in a complete scale. (Quick digression into
idea of a musical scale as a range of distinct and countable notes)
Do you think that there's such a trait as musical "perfect pitch" but for
color?
[Interesting thought. First, not sure what the analogous definition would be
(ability to name the wavelength of a pure stimulus?) and second, I think
there probably is no such ability. - WB]
