I'd really love to see a giant prism as a piece of public art,then seeing the light spectrum.

So what happens if you take another pris, and place it after the light has passed trhough the first prism, but in such a way that only one colour of the dispersed light passes into the second prism. Will it again split into all the colours of the rainbow, or will this new single colour just bend inside the second prism and pass through, still just one single colour?
