Is that REALLY green?
One of the amazing things about being a human is that we are able to realize the many ways that we are different. The way we see is just another. I was not surprised that the picture we see in our brains is “bigger” than the picture on our retinas. I agree with Sarah Harding…isn’t this perfectly logical? I was also intrigued by a similiar question as Sarah posed. I have always been curious about perception of color. What if the color I see for “green” is different than the color everyone else sees for green? If all my colors had always been different then the adjectives used to describe them would always be different too right? This concept has always boggled my mind because I don’t know of any way to prove that it can’t happen. Any ideas?
