Yellow spot


It is no secret that yellow is an oft featured colour in Shiftazine.
It is such a universal colour that generates similar emotions from the viewer regardless of the culture one comes from.
It always communicates the notion of energy, life and positivity.

"Yellow is my favourite, but what is yellow? 
Handmaiden to white, it is a slight tarnish of pure light.
Take away a bit of white's absolute luminosity, and what remains is yellow -- 
sunlike, golden as a crown, buttercups in a field, marsh marigolds, 
a finch's wing, a plastic flute." RICHARD GROSSINGER, The Bardo of Waking Life
