The bundle opens with an encyclopedic "Tour of the Electromagnetic Spectrum," produced by NASA. Next up is a look at a 2008 viral ad campaign, "Cell Phone Popcorn". Popping corn with phones was an urban legend in the early days of smartphones.
Next up is a colorful sequence. "Pixel Peeping" and "Fun With Colors" were originally written for in-person instruction, but modified into Virtual Labs for remote teaching/distance learning (RT;DL). Conceptual Physics Alive's "Light and Color" follows nicely. Then a pair of color mixing YouTube Physics lessons explore cephalopod camouflage and the mystery of magenta. How much do you know about chromatophores?
From there it's back to Conceptual Physics Alive for Hewitt's talk on "Reflection and Refraction" and The Mechanical Universe's episode on "Optics"
The bundle closes with Hewitt's "Light Waves" episode, Physics Girl's inquiry into polarized light/biology, and KQED's look at structural color, specifically where blue occurs in organisms. It's fairly rare.
