Pi as color code

The numbers from 1 to 9 are depicted by color strips . . .

„The colors represent the whole world. The variety of colors is infinite, but we tend to reduce them to a rather small number. On the other hand, by using the main six to eleven basic colors (white, black, red, green, yellow, blue, brown, orange, pink, purple, and gray) we can name most any color and impart our impressions of color to other human beings.“

1 = red	fire, warmth, blood, love, eroticism, passion, rose, cherry, heart, stoplight
2 = green	nature, grass, apple, quietude, lust for life, forest, greenlight
3 = blue	water, cold, ocean, distance, harmony, trust, infinity
4 = cyan	sky, swimming pool, forget-me-not, ocean
5 = magenta	cyclamen, anemone, carnation
6 = yellow	sun, summer, gold, sunflower, moon, wheat, mail
7 = orange	oranges, carrots
8 = brown	Earth, coffee, wood, leather, swamp, dirt, clay, chocolate
9 = white	Snow, cold, paper, laundry, sail, purity
0 = black	Night, coal, universe, darkness, coffee, black holes

1) Pi as color code on an infinitely long bench

The numbers from 0 to 9 are depicted by color strips of felt woven together.

The color assigment is as follows:

        1    =    red
        2    =    green
        3    =    blue
        4    =    cyan
        5    =    magenta
        6    =    yellow
        7    =    orange
        8    =    brown
        9    =    white
        0    =    black

The colored strips from felt or some other material are ordered by color and by number according to the following scheme:

3,	1	4	1	5	9	2	6	5	3	5
III	I	IIII	I	IIIII	IIIIIIIII	II	IIIIII	IIIII	III	IIIII
III	I	IIII	I	IIIII	IIIIIIIII	II	IIIIII	IIIII	III	IIIII
III	I	IIII	I	IIIII	IIIIIIIII	II	IIIIII	IIIII	III	IIIII
III	I	IIII	I	IIIII	IIIIIIIII	II	IIIIII	IIIII	III	IIIII
III	I	IIII	I	IIIII	IIIIIIIII	II	IIIIII	IIIII	III	IIIII

2) Pi as color code in an infinitely long row
The numbers from 0 to 9 are depicted by color strips or areas.

The color assigment is as follows:

        1    =    red
        2    =    green
        3    =    blue
        4    =    cyan
        5    =    magenta
        6    =    yellow
        7    =    orange
        8    =    brown
        9    =    white
        0    =    black
