Lessons learned

Gephi is a good tool for data clustering and the logic of nodes and edges make the analysis more easy to follow. However, due to the complexity of the connections and too many colors, it's hard to observe a clear and straightforward conclusion.

Other related questions should be studied to better support the color social network. For example, what if all the similar color nodes aggregate visually and what are the general color preferences by Instagrammers? I need to create a totally different edge file. To make this idea work, I need to keep only dominant colors of each post and the connections are the posts with the same color or similar colors. However, I realized this may not be tangible because the visual similarity may have a totally different color code but the clustering can only base on the color code. The further analysis can be really interesting but requires more complex filtration of the dataset.
