7 sets Venn Diagram: interactive 128 color combinations from mixing 7 colors

Very cool. I think I find "Side B" much easier to see. Don't miss it! (drag to "flip" it over).
I wonder if there's a good way to add some intuitive discoverability to that feature...

Yes and also don't miss hovering over areas and waiting for a second to isolate only the overlapping colors.
That, at least, is quite easily discoverable by a nieve user.
Thanks, twas very hard to see HSL differences due to the high contrast between the linework and the black background. B-side was better.
Don't give this page a once-over. Make sure you drag the diagram to "flip" it over. You can click on regions on side B of the diagram, too.
Impressive work!
Impressive work!
Thanks for pointing that out! This really is impressive.
This is from Santiago Ortiz, who has several other excellent projects on his website. My favorite is "Views of the sky" http://moebio.com/exomap/viewsofthesky/2/ which allows you to either view the stars in scaled positions with their size indicating their absolute magnitude, or on a sphere with the stars scaled by relative magnitude (as on Earth). Part #1 (don't miss it!) is located at a link on the bottom of the page, and also cool.
This is, indeed, very impressive.
It is not only a great way to visualize the data, but it is a cool interactive piece.
I do agree that Side B is easier to see, especially with the isolation.

In FF15.0.1 on Kubuntu it didn't show for me until I attempted to drag at which point everything worked as expected. Clicking on the page makes the image appear too as does interacting with the bookmark "star" for the page.
You might want to file this as a bug. Works for me with FF15.0.1 on Linux Mint 13 (Cinnamon).
It's too bad that so many of the colors are named a rather unimaginative "gray". That's the only negative thing that comes immediately to mind, however; this is really quite cool.
And it's actually a Venn diagram too, unlike many other things that get that name on the Internet.
That being said, this is the coolest venn diagram visualization diagram I've seen. Someone should make an interactive 11 curve diagram.
Edit: http://www.combinatorics.org/files/Surveys/ds5/VennEJC.html has a lot more info on venn diagrams in general, if anyone is interested.
