I did a search here on octarine and your video came up fist.if you don't mind, I'd like to know what you think octarine is and the reason for its mystery.thanks for entertaining my inquiry. By the way, beautiful colors.

Octarine, according to author Terry Pratchett, is the eighth color of the spectrum in Discworld and the "color of magic." I like octarine as a word and a concept because I've always wondered about colors I've never seen. Author Neil Gaiman remarked to me at a book signing that one of his favorite words is "sinople"- a word that means red and green at the same time. Until recently, there was one word in the Japanese language for both green and blue.

You want to see the color of magic?

you want to feel it ?

It is your color, true magic is always a matter of consciousness.

It's a simple matter of taking a trip down acid lane. A fascinating ride.

If octarine was present there, it wouldn't be the octarine you're looking for, the vibrant greenis-purple. Because we cannot see in octagons, only in rods and cones, it would look like an ultra-black, or "the true opposite of light (not just the absence of light), The Light Fantastic".

The color is ao, aoi when connected to a subject. Because of the corporatization of Japan though, they added the color midori describing greens. I've always been fascinated with octarine and if rumor is true is a 'yellow-green-violate' color. The strangest thing though, is that if you look at these colors together and squint they mix into an almost, dare I say, 'crystal' color. Though most would say that a crystal is absent of color.
