What is Colour?
Colour is the story of a Transporter, an Examiner, a Peacekeeper, a Fishwick, a collection of Cabinet Makers, and two of the youngest appointees to the Decorators of Wetledale. It is the true story of how too many of life's possibilities still lie concealed behind the panelling.
Colour uses the theories and language of colour to examine how we process events through the lens of our experience. As any cabinet maker will tell you, the value of a tree lies not in the fleeting colour of its leaves, but in its singular character that has been shaped by years of weathering life's storms.
Synopsis
Flatlanders
Colour is the story of a complex power struggle in the fictional valley of Wetledale, where the value of goods is paramount and colour is strictly controlled.
The story revolves around the Chair of the Decorators' Guild, who seeks to overturn the restrictive colour rules imposed by the Conformance Council, dominated by the powerful cabinet-making industry.
She believes these rules stifle the Decorators' Fraternity and hinder their ability to contribute to Wetledale's value.
The Chair's plan involves secretly hiring a Transporter to bring an Examiner from the Ruling Council to Wetledale in the harsh winter, hoping the Examiner will witness the inconsistencies in the Conformance Council's rules and recommend changes.
Meanwhile, the newly appointed Head of All Science in the Ruling Council also sees an opportunity to prove the value of Attitudinal Science by sending an Examiner to Wetledale.
He chooses John Kearney, a disgraced former Examiner known for his pragmatic approach, to conduct the examination.
The narrative is interwoven with the concerns of the Peacekeeper, who fears an invasion from the Flatlands, and the political manoeuvring of various factions within the Ruling Council.
The story highlights the themes of power, control, value, and the hidden forces that drive societal change.
The Flatlanders who inhabit the Flatlands are are famously colourful people.
