ABSTRACT

This conclusion presents some closing thoughts on the concepts covered in the preceding chapters of this book. The notion of language-games or language-fields has been a major theme of the book. When fiction is strongly opposed to nonfiction, or else mistakenly aligned against (or with) narrative, color is deemed too real, fit only for realism or else only for its opposite, exotica and fantasies, as it were, extreme fictions where the real has been resolutely discarded. Descriptions about hue relationships may be built upon the natural scale of luminance values starting with white and yellow and descending to purple, brown, and black. The perceived interrelations of hue, lightness, brightness, luminance, subjective and objective color temperatures, value, and saturation are quite intricate and nonlinear allowing artists to confound and snarl expectations when desirable. Reidentification addresses the future in terms of a person's expectation, i.e., through an expectation of a future reidentification.
