A Colorblind Cartographer

https://billmorris.io/shoals/2026/10/18/colorblind-cartographer.html Nice piece by Bill on what it means to him to be a colorblind cartographer I finally, earnestly solicited some opinions from friends and colleagues about what they saw in the same images that I was looking at - in particular in the comparison between the true color image of the airstrip surrounded by blooming canola fields, with the protonopia-simulation version next to it. The words I heard to describe my simulated view of the world were “leached”, “desaturated”, and “sepia”. This was honestly shocking, and perhaps the first hint I’ve had since I was very young that the world might be more vibrant than I could ever imagine. calls out color brewer and Phosphor
