I want to explain myself better:
In Lana Wilson's Handbook
In V.C..'s handbook
In Rhodes/Hopper
In The Magic Of Fire by Tony Hansen even widely.
In the two Hebrew written books I know:
An example
Material "A"
Colorant "C" In reduction.... in oxidation...
Works from cone 02 no higher than cone12
If their is material "W" it will be pink if there will be material "Z"
it will be green
If you add colorant oxide "Y" it will be mustard blue ( that what
happens to the forgotten mustard in my kitchen)
but when I turn the page I forget, because there is so much information
in each page that concerned with one material + one coloring oxide ( or
carbonate)
Why did I think of a web site page? I have seen, I think an
educational
site located in New Zealand where you could move the mouse and get
different colors.
My knowledge in computing is about -0.000001 That is why I respect the
people who develop these tools that make life so easy.
Robert Wirt In his tutorial to the Glazechem has a good explanation to
what requires to built a software. I do not have the program, so I
cannot quote from there: It was as I remember 'the relation between the
bananas, cucumbers, their maturing, how long takes to cook them and
may thing around, looks like their was not any connection , yet to
built a software, for ceramics,you need much more knowledge that how
it looks to the regular person, on the surface.
I need this tool not the same way as the good software more like a
direction.
Fraser Forsythe in Glaze Simulator , Version two gives, according to
my, yours, results of firing a pointer, indicates for suspected
results. (glazing) This kind of thing I would like about colors,
I wish Fraser,
that pointer would be adjustable not just graphic!
I mean at home,where I keep my computer, less dusty
before going to the studio, where the oxides, begging me to add them
to a glaze, to decide what I like and what not.
Like if there where five or ten combined cardboard circles that would
help me to suggest coloring, because as I wrote earlier in this letter
when I read one page, I forget the written on the other one.
