Well it wasn't as interesting as I thought it would be... But then again is was basically it's gray because clay retains water so depleats the iron. Basically info mentioned in other part of the video
I didn't expect your color theory videos and your geology videos to ever come together, but it makes perfect sense. This was really cool to learn about!
loving this video as a a person with colorblindness, i'm kind of having to convert the colors in my brain and its doing some sort of primal thing because this is just so fascinating.

When she showed the paleosal(?) I immediately though "that looks like the hills near where I live" and then when she mentioned my town by name in the very next sentence it blew my mind. what a funny coincidence
It's so interesting witnessing how different practices can apply to one another. it makes perfect sense that you'd need to keep track of soil color to study it but I never thought about how a color system I had to learn for graphic design and color theory would apply to something like geology.
Im a colorblind woman, your videos always fascinate me because you talk about something I cant really experience. Your way of explaining color is so... easy to understand(?) like, I dont know how to explain it, in the video where you showed how the colors are distributed in a cylinder, it totally changed my perspective in relation to colors. not much to say other than thank you, really ty so much, amazing work
I glad. I actually had a similar experience with a colleague recently. They are red green color blind, they aren’t sure what specific type. We ended up talking about color pickers in a program we were using and I explained how the colors were organized and it “clicked” for him. If you don’t mind, what type of color blindness do you have?
@@gneissname I have tritanopia, yellow blue colorblindness I saw other comment where you said that are interested in making a video about this topic, I can help in any sort of way related to my type :)
I'm a student in a graduate historic architecture preservation program and we use Munsell to describe brick and stone masonry. Pretty cool since it's just earth materials in a human-shaped form.
Fascinating. It's not within the scope of what you do, but now as a potter/ceramicist I want a chance to talk to a soil scientist/geologist about clay and get another perspective on it, given that you skipped a bit of clay info there
The munsell color space is also still used for the Farnsworth-Munsell 100 Hue color vision test. Normally the test is used in optometry for measuring the type and extent of a patient's colorblindness, but it's also used for the complete opposite purpose too: I had to take a FM100 test once as part of a job interview at a paint company, to verify that I had full color vision without any latent deficiencies.
I loved this! Soils and soil testing is a big part of my IRL job, but always in a structural and/or groundwater flow capacity - never in terms of composition so this answered like 50 big questions I've always been curious about! [starts chanting] More Igneous Rex!... More Igneous Rex!...
Use this all the time in the field for soils. I'm glad you touched on the GLEY section, the geology focused Munsell reference book throws a lot of the more unique colors - "P", "G", "B" combinations - into GLEY and I've never heard it described outside of geology and would love for someone to expand on that more.
I cannot describe how much I like this channel haha. Really loved to see the actual book in real life and to see your skills in Minecraft get even better to represent it's contents in game!
Videos like this are what youtube was made for. You have taken knowledge that most people never even knew was out there, put it all together, and presented it in a way that everyone could understand. I love it!!!
I’ve been an archaeologist for about 5 years now and this is the first time I’ve actually been interested enough to learn the purpose of Munsell coloring, your channel makes this info very digestible!
OMFG THESE ARE ALL MY FAVOURITE THINGS !!!!!!!!! I loveee soil it’s so cool and also minecraft and color T_T ahhhhh i’m exploding with happiness!!! ✨ I love moss and it’s so cool to see how different mosses prefer different types of soil, and how the quality and diversity of mosses can indicate soil health of an area!!!! I also LOVE earth pigments and it’s amazing how the color of the soil is determined by the iron & manganese content - iron oxides & ochres are some of my favourite pigments to paint with 🎨 I have this book called Natures Palette, it’s published by princeton, & it goes through a set of colors for paints & where those hues appear in the wild, across minerals, flora, & fauna. it’s an expansion upon Werner’s nomenclature of colors and it’s really beautiful and informative!! I highly reccomend anyone checks it out if you’re interest is piqued from what i’ve said :)
I don't think anyone could have imagined Minecraft of all things would be such a wonderful tool used to visualise these things. You're amazing, Gneiss, and thank you for bringing your wife on to teach us about soil (and clay!)
I've been waiting for some geology from this channel. Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the whole digital colour tangent. But this is such a gneiss name for geology content
Something Mojang could add is different colored sand blocks. Since in the real world we already have different colored sands around the world. We don't just have the regular "white" sand or "red" sand, we actually have Orange, purple, gray, black, green, dark brown, pink, and an actual white sand beaches around the world right now. That would be awesome if we got those added in even if those areas were very rare or hard to find would be fun to add those to the game as well.
I love how this video was both a super interesting deep dive into the overlap between colour theory and geology, and also a chance for your wife to flex her vast knowledge of soils. I've been going through all your content, and this channel is a lovely use of minecraft as an educational tool. Keep it up!
This is a pretty good video about soil color! In my job working for an engineering firm, we do a lot of wetland delineations in streams so of course our very expensive Munsell comes out every time we have to identify a soil. My favorite part of the whole delineation process. Least favorite is digging the 1.5 ft hole lol
I love dirt! I did a bit of soil stuff in high school (shout-out Environthon), including colour, texture, and reactivity with acid and it was always great to put some dirt on the munsell charts. I hadn’t realized it was used elsewhere.
Ayo, first time I come across the Munsell Colour Syst. outside classes, even here in Atacama its useful. Didn't know it was that cool in it's creation and characteristics tho!
Im a TA for a soils class this semester, and tomorrow I need to make an introduction... well... introducing myself to the students via our sorta class-homepage thing I know what video Im gotta embed! Perfect timing too, and so good cus it kinda helps you understand all the stuff the proffesor usually just fails to mention, and so kids are usually confused when they get to the labs, this should help a ton
That’s cool. Hope it helps. If the world due loss would be helpful for anything I could make that available too.
Місяць тому
I just fell asleep during the "boring billion" in your geologic timescale video and woke up to a car crash. Very fitting, but also: DANG, that is loud!
I usually think of "dirt"in minecraft as loess. Im used to in the midwest a layer of brown silty clay up to about 20 feet thick. Till tends to be gray.
That's really interesting. It's amazing how much we can deduce with only the colour. Did you know that metals and elements also burn at different colours? For example to simplify, iron burns at yellow-orange, copper burns green, aluminium silver white etc. Knowing this we can look at stars through satellites and telescopes and we can determine what elements are burning in that particular star just from the light that is detected from it. It's called astronomical spectroscopy if anyone wants to jump down the rabbit hole of further research.
Not sure if you'd ever go out into other games in regards to geology stuff but you mentioning Badlands made me wonder what it would be like if you covered games like Team Fortress 2 and Half Life 1 for their geological makeup
@@gneissname I for one would be a major supporter of your outsourcing of gaming geology. Personally as a massive fan of Black Mesa I think the rocks were a bit too red to be New Mexico desert but I'd love to see your take. Maybe you could even mix in a bit of geography and try and pinpoint where in the world the Black Mesa Research Facility is based on it's geological makeup
This was awesome, I love the science of things people take for granted (or should I say granite?). It was nice (or should I say Gneiss?) to get that guest star expert in, too! What a power couple: stone and soil!
I’ve never been on this channel before nor have a watch this video yet I’ll do that later when I actually have time I’m trying to go to bed but it is funny that seconds after I switch my phone to be in black-and-white for the evening open UA-cam and this is the first video in the recommended
we use this same system in archaeology for the same purpose: for soil color while recording stratigraphy during excavations! I had a mini heart attack when they showed their munsell soil book because its the same exact one i've used in my college classes 😭
Very cool episode! Gneiss to have a second person, changes the energy. Here's what I was going to ask you about: Do you think geologists have a different sense of color after looking at rocks for awhile? Like, sure, rocks can be colorful, but it seems like subtler color variations pop out more clearly to someone who has the training and experience. A rock I might think of as "a different grey", my mom would call blue or green. And this is sort of why Minecraft stone is the way it is... it's representing the fact that most people look at stone and just kind of see the same thing.
Amazing video! Speaking of minecraft and the colour of soil; have you ever considered doing some sort of video about how the local soil colour of various youtubers influences their terraforming style? For instance I notice while watching HermitCraft that PearlescentMoon tends to use a much redder/yellower palette of terraforming blocks than the other members, that I'd associate more with Australia. (Being Australian and seeing early paintings of our landscape done by Europeans, many of them just seem 'wrong' in terms of their colour palette - too grey/blue/green.)
From this data, I would assume if Minecraft were in the real world, or rather had a real world equivalent, it would likely be the Americas, moreover the North and South continent, due to common presence of iron and copper and having very similar biome variety, especially considering the more common biomes being more temperate forests with a mix of plains and mountains (sound familiar) and with jungles being more rare, and swamps usually clumped together in certain areas. One would assume that bamboo would throw it off due to it being so common in Asia, but there is a presence of bamboo in the southeast area of the North America. Even the desert is qualified as well with the whole Midwest and near Central America. Of course it's a guess, so who knows.
I actually \*really enjoy* the munsell space, just because of the "perceptual uniformity" -- I hate the whole "bright blue is dark" behavior of other systems. Thank you for bringing it to a little more attention. Do you have a color world where the blocks are placed around the munsell layout? Yes, I know that 2x5 lack any "3" factor like the other systems, and there's no real good work-around; yes, I know you'd have to make it expanded out a lot to account for the clustering around the greys. The good part is that it would show where the "missing colors" are really simply. Also: How much of minecraft is along the 10 YR / 10 B line? I was very surprised to find that the soil colors seem to all be found on that.
I did think about it but I haven’t found an automated way to convert RGB or a lab space into munsell. I plan to convert everything into lab space though.
Only system I ever found was using an icc profile that had munsell colors mapped to the Lab locations, and using interpolation for the rest. Interestingly, I found a Munsell-lab color space profile at one point. If you look at a Lab chart, the angles do not maintain a constant hue, and blue-turns-purple is one example of where the color changes greatly. (Water was one color that changes; fire was the other side that has a massive change). There was also problems of chroma not quite being maintained with radius. This profile was built to fix that -- angles kept constant hue, distance kept constant chroma, and there was no mathematical formula for it, only a few mapped colors and interpolation for the rest. @@gneissname
Thank you. Luckily most of what was kept down there I made sure was off the floor so the main damage is the walls and flooring. All the doors are warped and need to be replaced.
yknow i saw a couple colour world videos and they were neat but this is the video that got me to sub something i may never use but undoubtadly interesting
Ayy lets go we’re getting into perceptual uniform colour systems. Not sure if you Saw my comment on a previous video But im excited about this either way
I'm so sorry about the flood. Have you seen Deskalos? He's an archeologist and one of his series is about excavating a trail ruin as close as possible to how a real archeology dig would happen. He's got a cavern right under the dig site and said he didn't know how he'd handle that since he's never had it happen on a real dig site. Maybe you could go offer expertise? And do one of your brilliant videos on just how dangerous we're all being as we blithely mine down in the depths without a scrap of PPE?
Did you SKIP THROUGH your wife's very important clay info? Someone is sleeping on the sofa tonight.

Most times rock colors are so mild that when someone tells you "yeah, this rock is green" it just feels pike gaslighting

Do you have a color world where the blocks are placed around the munsell layout? Yes, I know that 2x5 lack any "3" factor like the other systems, and there's no real good work-around; yes, I know you'd have to make it expanded out a lot to account for the clustering around the greys.
The good part is that it would show where the "missing colors" are really simply.
Also: How much of minecraft is along the 10 YR / 10 B line? I was very surprised to find that the soil colors seem to all be found on that.
I did think about it but I haven’t found an automated way to convert RGB or a lab space into munsell. I plan to convert everything into lab space though.
Only system I ever found was using an icc profile that had munsell colors mapped to the Lab locations, and using interpolation for the rest.
Interestingly, I found a Munsell-lab color space profile at one point. If you look at a Lab chart, the angles do not maintain a constant hue, and blue-turns-purple is one example of where the color changes greatly. (Water was one color that changes; fire was the other side that has a massive change). There was also problems of chroma not quite being maintained with radius. This profile was built to fix that -- angles kept constant hue, distance kept constant chroma, and there was no mathematical formula for it, only a few mapped colors and interpolation for the rest.

welcome home! i hope you can get your basement sorted
Thank you. Luckily most of what was kept down there I made sure was off the floor so the main damage is the walls and flooring. All the doors are warped and need to be replaced.
@@gneissname Agh not fun at all 😞 I’m glad to hear it wasn’t a total loss at least!
0.25 play back speed for "Very important clay info." 😆
if the munsell color system for soil classification has no fans then i am dead
Gneiss Name I love you your content is exactly what my brain likes
man, badlands in real life look astonishing!
I would be interesetd to see Gneiss wife's take on the badlands biome colour layering.
yknow i saw a couple colour world videos and they were neat but this is the video that got me to sub
something i may never use but undoubtadly interesting
Disliking for the insanely loud mixing on that car crash noise at around 8:20
I got jumpscared by that fun fact moment
That child is going to be an expert geologist
I loved that! So engaging and super interesting.
I think the gray spots should be assumed to be gravel, as you can make more dirt by mixing dirt with gravel and hoeing it.
I love learning things that can be demonstrated by using Minecraft
A most excellent video! thank you
You said you were in remote Australia. Are you familiar with the work of Rhawn Denniston with the speleothems in Northern Australia?
I've seen purple dirt, there was a bunch in Azle texas
Representing that North Georgia/Tennessee Red clay
WHY YOU SKIP IMPORTANT CLAY INFO!!?
Ayy lets go we’re getting into perceptual uniform colour systems. Not sure if you Saw my comment on a previous video But im excited about this either way
I’m excited about it too. I have a few other videos I want to get out before that. Too many ideas and too little time.
I'm so sorry about the flood.
Have you seen Deskalos? He's an archeologist and one of his series is about excavating a trail ruin as close as possible to how a real archeology dig would happen.
He's got a cavern right under the dig site and said he didn't know how he'd handle that since he's never had it happen on a real dig site.
Maybe you could go offer expertise?
And do one of your brilliant videos on just how dangerous we're all being as we blithely mine down in the depths without a scrap of PPE?
I have not, I'll go check them out!
