When we hear the word ‘Grafik’, the first thing we think of is the teutophile way in which fans of krautrock refer to that genre’s typical 4/4 drumbeat: ‘Motorik’. Thinking about a good starting point for such a shirt, we decided to reflect of the specific spelling of the title of the magazine, ‘Grafik’. In 2005, we were asked by Angharad Lewis and Caroline Roberts (editors of Grafik) to design an exclusive t-shirt for the magazine – a shirt that would be used as a present for subscribers, but could also be ordered from the magazine. It shouldn’t be confused with Graphic (another UK-based magazine, currently known as Elephant), or Graphic (a more recent Korean design magazine). If you include in the definition of color, however, all of the ways in which human eyes process light and the lack of it, then black and white, as well as pink, earn their places in the crayon box.Grafik (now defunct) was a UK-based design magazine, formerly known as Graphics International. That’s why, if you enter a room with the lights turned off, everything is dark and black. Black, on the other hand, is what our eyes see in a space that reflects very little light at all. White is what we see when all wavelengths of light are reflected off an object, while pink is a mix of the red and violet wavelengths. Colors like white and pink are not present in the spectrum because they are the result of our eyes’ mixing wavelengths of light. If color is solely the way physics describes it, the visible spectrum of light waves, then black and white are outcasts and don’t count as true, physical colors. It depends on how you want to define color. So does this mean that black and white aren’t real colors?

Black and white, as well as colors like pink, don’t seem to have a place in a visible spectrum of light that goes only from violet to red. The trouble in this scientific approach is that some colors considered important in the crayon box are notoriously missing. But a red shirt will be reflecting some wavelength between 590 and 750 nm, which your eyes process as red. When you look at someone’s red shirt, for instance, that shirt will be absorbing or scattering wavelengths of light lower than 590 nm, so those waves will not reach your eyes. For example, the visible spectrum begins with the wavelengths that we call violet, between 380 and 450 nm, then moves on to blue, green, yellow, and orange, and ends with what we call red, between 590 and 750 nm. The human eye is capable of seeing only light with wavelengths between 380 and 750 nanometers. Different colors, such as red and orange, and other invisible spectrums such as infrared light, move around in waves of electromagnetic energy. To put it in scientific terms, however, color is simply the range of visible light that humans can see.
