W3C: reviewing standards before they harden
Work — read the piece
- Meant to show
- A blind expert joining the review while the standard is still loose paper on the table, early enough that what he says can still change it.
- Asked for
- An older man crossing a meeting room with a white cane sweeping ahead of him, loose papers spread across the table, colleagues turning toward him
- Drawn with (split)
#3dc894#c54e9b#c66233
Why these three
The opposition backed off by 30 degrees either side, which keeps the contrast without the vibration.
- SeedSHA-256 of
w3c-apa, which is the same every time and different for every piece. - Base hueThe first two bytes as a fraction of 65,535, times 360 = 163°.
- GeometryThe third byte modulo 4 picks split, which adds 0°, 150°, 210°.
- WobbleThree more bytes shift each by up to ±12° — −5.2°, +8.7°, +6.4° — so two pieces that draw the same geometry are still not the same shape on the wheel.
- Result
#3dc894158° at 69% saturation, 78% value#c54e9b321° at 60% saturation, 77% value#c6623319° at 74% saturation, 77% value
Saturation never drops below 72% and value never below 78%, which is what keeps a hue reading as the color it was chosen to be rather than as a dark. More on how these are made.
