This makes me think of the time before we had color photography and cinematography. Somehow, we could transpose all of those shades of black and white into a full spectrum of color, and some people still prefer their photographs and films that way. (I say this as a French hornist who was constantly having to transpose from one key to anothe.) Selected readings "Color vocabulary and pre-attentive color perception" (2/23/09) — P.
