Formed by trillions of photons produced by fractions of seconds by the sun, light travels through the atmosphere destined either for collision or if lucky, an encounter with the retina. There, millions of red, green, and blue sensing -cones will dress her in colors while they open the doors to the human brain. But what about freedom or love? concepts whose silhouette cannot be discerned by the sense of sight? And what happens when we are given reference by what our eyes can see but nevertheless color concepts keep unfolding in infinite layers, each with a meaning of its own? How is it possible for born blind people to “see” color? What is Cognitive Neuropsychology? And what is it for? Meet our closing episode’s star scientist, Alfonso Caramazza, Daniel and Amy Starch Professor of Psychology and Director of the Cognitive Neuropsychology Lab at Harvard University’s Department of Psychology.

Dare to jump in a fascinating journey inside the human brain. Prof. Caramazza will guide us as a soft light- lantern through a universe of flexible living pathways of hills and valleys connected by nudges of sensorial and intellectual experiences. Echoing its way with vibrant impulse, hiding blindfolded between labyrinthine walls, Color awaits to be discovered.

"The violins, the deep tones of the basses, and especially the wind instruments at that time embodied for me all the power of that pre-nocturnal hour. I saw all my colors in my mind; they stood before my eyes. Wild, almost crazy lines were sketched in front of me” wrote Kandinsky after hearing Wagner’s Lohengrin, a moment that changed his life and pushed him to desist from a promising career as a lawyer to become a Master of Modern Art. Believed to be a synesthete, Kandinsky might have experienced sound in the form of color, shape, and movement. Prof. Karen Schloss, a faculty member at University of Wisconsin–Madison is part of a group of scientists who conducted a series of studies that confirmed what we already sense but did not have scientific proof of: whereas caused or not by synesthesia, when we listen to music, people’s emotional response can be translated into colors. Dare to accompany us in a knowledgeable interview by a committed researcher, who has devoted her professional life into studying color. Hear about her amazing findings regarding color concept association and color preference to understand how color influences our judgment and behavior. A passionate and lucid scientist, Karen Schloss’s knowledge on color mesmerizes and turns the path of discovery into an exciting venture.

A body and environmental detector that translates heat into an explosion of colors, giant stick-figure puppets, a river of fluid letters, voices recorded and translated into beautiful color shades, monumental chandeliers imitating the sun’s temperature, a bridge connected by lights and thousands of heartbeats forming valleys upside-down dazzling in the dark: his immerse installations are pure science fiction.

A strong sense of literacy in his use of LED lights, robotics, computerized surveillance and telematic networks translated into a restrained use of color, leaves no doubt for the viewer: Rafael, Lozano-Hemmer is by no means a techno optimistic. Known for avoiding excesses such as “architeinment”, that tend to jeopardize cities’ individual character through homogenizing forces, truth is, this artist longs for two sorts of color-light effects: the one which places the spectator somewhere between cathartic playfulness and awareness, and that produced violently either by men or by nature. Meet Mexican-Canadian scientist and artist Rafael Lozano-Hemmer at the crossroads between architecture and artistic expression, in a rendezvous that will summon you to witness the explosive affair between art and science, an encounter in which, the presence of technology will indeed, be inevitable.

With an experience of over 20 years in psychology treating children and young adults in the autistic spectrum, Marlene Gómez Aizpuru, an autistic adult herself, opens a window to the autistic spectrum by sharing her personal and professional experience on how color influences and might affect children in the spectrum through the course of their daily lives. Intended to provide awareness rather than being a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, this interview longs for understanding and empathy for children in the autistic spectrum. It is important that you speak with your healthcare provider or child’s pediatrician about how to treat him or her personally regarding light and color perception as just each person may have a different visual experience and/or their perception of light sensitivity might be triggered by various factors and therefore different treatments may be recommended.
