Looking at the colours of the rainbow? Sounds simple really. This talk ventures through the colours of the rainbow and how we understand colour, light and its effects on our emotions.

Topics include colours for helping health, tastier looking food, making shoppers spend money and gambling more addictive. How colour is conveyed in culture, art and the variation between shops, restaurants, our homes or outdoors.

This talk is particularly useful for art or craft groups, and can be as lightweight or technical as your audience requires. It comes with practical coloured light demonstrations for full effect. If enjoyed in person a projector and presentation are provided.

About James Cobbett TMIET

I’m an Electrotechnical Lighting Engineer (what a mouthful) with a real passion for my job, life experiences and hobbies. My interests include heritage railways, anything architectural, technical or electrical.

After becoming a professional engineer but prior to working in lighting I qualified as a teacher so you can be sure of a good presentation, confident public speaking and no bumbling about!

I look forward to hearing from you. All the best, James.
