#2Would it be possible to make a human recognizable 3D-object in the colorspace that also is a pretty picture in 2D?

#3This is cool, but I wonder why most of the demo images - and a lot of the images I uploaded - seem to have their colors aligned in a single plane.

#4So what's the insight behind such visualizations? Can it be used to separate photographic pictures from paintings for example?

Hmm, I guess someone would have thought of that, but this could probably be used for compressing images by reorienting the color axes so that one of them is perpendicular to this color plane, and then sending less information about that coordinate.

#6Nice visualization, although an option to show HSV/HSL in a cylinder might help to better understand the distance between colors.

One thing it can be used for is to easily see what kind of palette a painter is using.

I'm not sure. It's hard to say because RGB is a bad representation of the color semantics anyway. Try visualizing the images in HSV/HSL/LAB space instead.

Tons of artistic applications.
I can’t think of anything this visualization gives that standard scopes in software like Nuke don’t provide, but those are not as intuitive or quick to read.
Color in image reproduction is notoriously difficult to measure by simply looking at a whole image. Much of what we perceive as color characteristics are contextually dependent. And while the characteristics may not vary, the level of contextual dependence seems to. Females are more likely to have more reliable contextually affected color perception than males.
