It seems to have a different concept of colors than me ::p:

This is a system created to find out the colour of anything, by querying and aggregating image data from Flickr, a popular online photo sharing community. It is an attempt at answering a potentially complex and abstract question in an objective manner, by using simple algorithms on data originating from subjective human perceptions.

THE COLOR OF uses an averaging algorithm on the colour pixel values of the queried images, displaying the result incrementally as each picture is loaded. Taking the assumption that random images will average out to become grey, we can attribute any colour bias which deviates from grey, to the term as searched. Any further interpretation is then up to the user.

This is still in its infancy stage. Improvements planned for the future include speed optimizations and options.

Of course it's just a funny way to see it, it has no colour, but it's an interesting way to see it. If you go to "gallery" you will see some examples of the results, I especially like the sensations one. Of course some things have better results than others and nothing represents the actual color of a concept as that is not possible :p
