Yes of course, additive or optical (light) mixing is in many ways the opposite of subtractive ink or paint color mixing. In optical or additive mixing, the 'primary' light colors combined give white light; in subtractive or ink color mixing, the combined primary color mixing gives black. When we talk about primary colors in subtractive color mixing, we talk about magenta, yellow and cyan, the pure colors. Additive color mixing uses exactly the colors in between these three primary colors: magenta and yellow give RED; yellow and cyan gives GREEN; cyan and magenta gives BLUE; hence 'additive' color mixing. RED, GREEN and BLUE, or RGB, or the colors used in light mixing technology.
