Symbolism of colors
Interactive radio
The symbolism of colors

• fjkshfjshjksdfhjkss

The psychology of color is one of the most
inexact sciences but also one of the most
powerful and popular.

Each color in the spectrum conveys a silent
statement to the viewer. This perception is a
result of in what way our eyes work, our natural
environment and how the society and culture we
live in affect us.

Blue white and red
Interactive radio
There seem to be certain metaphors and archetypes
linked with specific colors. Blue the cold,
steady, spiritual color we associate with heaven
and water. White, the clean, religious color we
often link with the holy ghost, innocence and
something more realistic like snow. And red
the most emotion-filled color which denotes love
and sex, energy, valor, fire, alertness and
danger and in a bad sense cruelty,
aggressiveness, war, wrath and even sin. We tend
to associate red to danger, fire engines, blood,
roses and hell.

Britney Spears

• fjkshfjshjksdfhjkss

According to her mom, Lynne, Britney was a very
sweet and lovable baby. She started talking
early and she also started showing her talent!
Lynne says that as soon as Britney got to her
feet for her first toddling steps, she became
interested in music. Little Britney learned to
dance as soon as she was steady on her feet,
and her love of music helped her learn her
steps.
