What Color is

Whatever the original thread title, this is more about defining what color is, as a sensation, as a perception, than any of the "higher up" mechanisms, that we know exist in the visual cortex and their accompanying retinal processing, trying to make sense of light signals, under one condition or another. I totally agree that color is a sensation, tied physiologically to the nervous system, like all other senses. That is a helpful starting point. Trying to define what color is, as a phenomenon, is a question I keep coming back to, in my practice, although I believe, by now, I have a decent grasp of what it is. But it's full of nuances, and as such, endless.
