The article, “Color Walking,” written by Phia Bennin and Brendan McMullan, is about an experiment that a teacher named William Burroughs designed to spark an idea for students to think about color. The students are surrounded by a huge variety of colors, thus Burroughs told the students to go outside and choose a color that would lead them from object to object. Interestingly, the objects may change from a purse to an ice cream cone within minutes. This allows the students to observe the details of the community and keep an open mind of how everything is designed. Bennin and McMullan gave a personal experience of an experiment held at “WNYC, in lower Manhattan, one Sunday afternoon.” At the end of the article, there was a suggestion to try the experiment. The authors said to pick a color as desired then make connections of the different colors from object to object.
