Yo, ROY G. BIV! | GIF Six-Pack

This article is a rainbow 'Voltron': each color more powerful together than they would be apart.

With 2563 colors at their disposal, it's fascinating when a GIF artist decides to explore a single chromatic neighborhood. Today we take a look at the findings of a few of our favorite artists as they dive into red, orange, yellow, blue, green, indigo, and violet. Following the acronym used to teach children the colors of the rainbow, ROY G. BIV, we'll check out sci-fi sculptures by Zolloc (who just nailed Phantogram's visuals on Jimmy Fallon), Lucea Spinelli's golden light paintings, and Kidmograph's homage to the only man who truly wore violet well. These seven GIFs, tied together by Kyttenjanae's multichromatic #squad Vine, create a mega-rainbow GIF á la Voltron that is more powerful as a whole than each could be alone. Gaze upon the glory of pan-spectrum unity below.
