\begin{frame}{What have we learned?}
137+
\begin{itemize}
138+
\item Jet is not a great colourmap (or is it?)
139+
\item Two types of information one can glean from a colourmap\footnote{C.
140+
Ware, Color sequences for univariate maps: theory, experiments, and
141+
principles, IEEE Computer Graphics and Appliations, 1998.}
142+
\begin{itemize}
143+
\item `Value' or `metric' information
144+
\item `Form' or `structure' information
145+
\end{itemize}
146+
\item Jet is not bad for value information (but not everywhere)
147+
\item Jet is awful for form information
148+
\item Jet is not alone---but it is very commonly used (see K Thyng's talk)
149+
\item How to pick a good colour map? \textbf{It depends!}
150+
\end{itemize}
151+
\end{frame}
152+
153+
\begin{frame}{What is good for form/structure information?}
154+
\begin{itemize}
155+
\item Colour has 3 dimensions: hue, saturation, and luminance
156+
\item Saturation-varying colourmaps are good for low-frequency data
157+
\item Luminance-varying colourmaps are good for high-frequency data
158+
\item The human brain is very bad an interpolating hue\footnote{Conclusion
159+
from psychophysical experiments by S. S. Stevens (formerly at Harvard)}
160+
\item Perceptually-based colourmaps
161+
\begin{itemize}
162+
\item Equal steps in data are perceived as equal steps in the colour
163+
space
164+
\end{itemize}

Pssst. Jet is the default colourmap in matplotlib. Anybody want to fix it? Submit a PR!
