additive

additive
   May refer to the additive system for representing the color spectrum using combinations of the primary colors of light — red, green and blue — demonstrates combinations which produce an array of lighter, brighter colors, including white. This is also called the RGB (red green blue) system of color mixing. Mixing red and blue lights, for example, produces magenta. Mixing blue and green creates cyan, and curiously, red and green lights combine to produce yellow.
