DOES COLOR EXIST?

ILLUSION AND REALITY

There are two aspects here.

Illusion and reality.

Let me give you a perfect example of illusion involving you.

Here are flowers and green foliage.

This is how you see them, but this is an illusion.

MEET DR. PETER GOURAS

It is important that he is our witness because this is the first time many people are going to be hearing this

ABOVE: Color vision is an illusion created by billions of neurons in our brain.

There is no color in the external world. It is created within our brain.

ABOVE ON THE LEFT WHAT WE SEE

ON THE RIGHT, WHAT IS REALLY THERE

There is the illusion on the left, and the reality on the right, and Dr Gouras explains.

Inside of your head is where the color is created by billions of brain neurons, and then

projected on to the outside so that the leaves appear green.

ABOVE: Color is created from two properties of light and the frequency

of the vibration of the wavelength. How our brain does this is a mystery.

ABOVE: Color should be explained at single cells in our brain. Progress

is being made in deciphering these clever circuits that create our

perception of the external world.

CLEVER CIRCUITS IN YOUR HEAD

GIVE YOU A PERCEPTION OF COLOR

There are electrical circuits in the brain that read wavelengths .

YOU ARE A PHOTON IN THE BACK OF YOUR HEAD

AND THE ELECTRICAL IMPULSES PROJECT THE PICTURE

FOR YOU THERE

But who is supposed to look at the color picture?

Photon, and where does photon watch it from?

In the viewing room, in the back of your head?

ISN'T WHAT WE DON'T KNOW AMAZING?
