This Day In History of the Day: On May 17, 1861 — exactly 150 years ago — Scottish physicist James Clerk Maxwell and photographer Thomas Sutton (who invented the SLR camera that same year) used three projectors fitted with red, green, and blue filters to combine three black-and-white photos of a tartan ribbon shot through similar filters, thereby forming the world’s first color photo (above) and, consequently, the “basis of nearly all subsequent photochemical and electronic methods of colour photography.”

“Now used as a euphemism for intracorporate assassinations (e.g. ‘We may have to take a dip in the Executive Pool on this one.’), ‘Executive Pool’ in the 2050s and 2060s simply referred to a secret chamber found in most investment firms that non-board members were invited to only on occasions of promotion or ritual self-drowning due to subpar quarterly results.”
