    Also, when I was younger the sense that people didn't or couldn't understand what I was feeling or trying to say was so frustrating - that I couldn't just take those things and like, transplant them into another person. That (in part) drove me to writing and music, trying to express myself in specific and unique ways; to try to create something external that represented my feelings as accurately as possible. But what you're thinking and feeling change as you engage with yourself, new information is added during externalization, some information will always be left out and even if that weren't the case, no one will interpret it the same way I do because they have different experiences, different ideas, emotions, personalities - different biology.
    That's something that can feel quite defeating; what, then, is the point of any of this? But there is still meaning in sharing something - anything - with other people, because whatever you share will go through a process of evolution, changing form and meaning as others interpret it, being refined until there is either common acceptance of the thing's essence, or a recognition that such commonality can't be reached so it's back to the drawing board to try approaching from another angle or move on to something else. And in that way, we develop shared realities which are, to me, a collaborative work of art.

In regards to talking about pain (this is a tangent to what you both were talking about), as someone who experienced a fair deal of pain in a serious car accident, our brains (understandably) can't remember pain, the way we remember happiness (you remember a moment and you re-experience that feeling). We can remember that it was painful, but can't recall how it felt. We can do that with other emotions/feelings, but not pain. As I said, there's a reason for it, the brain doesn't want to relive it.

    Quali sounds like the root of cuali/cualitative, which I think is the epistemological counterpart of the concept of Quantum/quantitative information. Vsause and the channel Veratasium made 2 videos that explore this in an interesting way. "What is random" and "What isn't random?". Really mind-blowing. Awesome channel!

    Sympathy, compassion and empathy are also subjects people intensely differ in. Thats why the Sally Anne test is so interesting. Same with sensitivity of the skin and the senses. I've always thought about this and how people are so different concerning these subjects because their experiences are so different.

    Your explanation of what you see as red makes perfect sense. Your eyelids are thin and light can get through them, but not without also traveling through their blood vessels. You're literally seeing that color through rose-tinted "glasses".

    This is also a question that I often tried to articulate to others with not much success, thinking that it might have an answer but never having found one. This video and your comments were enlightening in realizing, that at least in our encased and limited 4 dimensional reality, there is no answer. Each one of us is the center of our universe and it's very existence is determined by our perception of it. Each of us is unique, and irreplaceable and that is the insurmountable obstacle that makes us human and foils all those who strive to find an algorithm for a one size fits all utopia. We can all experience the same things, but the perception is very personal. Your channel is a refreshing presence on an incredible platform for the distribution of thoughts and ideas as well as the promotion of curiosity, that as we know, is the genesis of knowledge. Thank you.

    Ask a University student exactly how to put an elephant into a refrigerator?.
    They will say Open the door, put the elephant in, close the door.
    Now ask them exactly how do you put a giraffe into a refrigerator?
    They will repeat, Open the door put the giraffe in and close the door.
    Ask a 5 year old the exact same question and on the second answer they add: Take the elephant out, THEN put the giraffe in.
    I believe this is because children are more perceptual of their immediate existence and its effects last longer than an adults.
    Thoughts?

    Also, I highly recommend the video "You Are Two" by CGP Grey! It has to do with the duality of the human mind, and how it may be more literal and fundamental than most people expect!

    Book recommendation: "Shades of Grey - The Road to High Saffron" by Jasper Fforde
    It's a novel about living in a Colortocracy, where your social standing depends on which color(s) you can see. The novel has been often compared to "Brave New World" and "1984" - it is a dystopia, but written in a very humorous style. It has become my personal tradition to read it every year during the Christmas holidays, so I was just finished again now. Please read this book, I cannot recommend it enough!

    This reminds me of a discussion I had yesterday on the question of pursuing truth. I labeled that a fool's errand thinking they meant absolute truth, a metaphysical concept which is unknowable from our subjective viewpoint, and by which I did not mean the pursuit of knowledge, that being almost an imperative of our species. And here we see that even our cataloguing of agreed-upon experience has a limit. We can catalogue colors and agree on which color is which, name it, classify it based on wavelength but that doesn't speak to some larger, fundamental truth beyond our experiential knowledge (however abstracted through theory and measurement).

    Great reaction, surprised you're just now coming across VSauce. Regarding how a person could describe colors to someone blind, the visible light wavelengths (nm) can be converted to THz and probably more effective to scale down (-12 OoM) further to Hz. Run it through a device to oscillate at the frequency representative of the color. The blind person would then be able to "feel the difference between colors".
    Enjoying your videos, keep up the great work.

    That's awesome !! I was just explaining to a friend back in my partier days, some friends and I was discussing weather the red ash tray was was actually the same color to each of us. Because we was just told it was red was red and that's what we believed was red. He said we must have been smoking some good stuff. I'm just glad I actually know there is someone else out there that thinks the same way.

I am sure I will spend much more time down this rabbit hole. Thanks for the video...

    You can tell what color people see by the effects of that color on them. For example, if my red was blue, i would describe red as calming, but no people always say red is passoinate or fiery. If my red was your green, i would describe red as healthy.

    • @cameronjosephvideos5942
      @cameronjosephvideos5942 Рік тому +1

      But do you see red as fiery and passionate because the colour provokes that in you. Or is it because we were taught that. Our blood is red, when people are angry, or excited, or aroused their skin gets redder. We associate red more with fire than blue because its more common in fire. Sometimes its even said when you get angry you see red. Blue on the other hand we associate with clear skies and soothing water. Of course it makes is feel calm. What I'm saying is, if a blind man saw for the first time and we showed him colours without the context we grew up with, would colours inspire the same reaction in him.

  • @elainealibrandi6364
    @elainealibrandi6364 Рік тому

    Another great video, thanks! The Sally-Anne test connection with solipsism was particularly astute. I have monocular vision, so my perception is all off, but when people ask me what it's like, I can't explain because I've never known anything else. I can tell them the effects of it, such as under-reaching for the handle of the refrigerator door and pulling at air, or hitting my shoulder on a doorjamb on my blind side, but I don't know how to compare my perception with that of a normal-sighted person.
    I'm a mixed-media abstract artist, but when I was a naturalistic painter, I could show people what I saw; they could see how I perceived the represented placement of objects on a canvas. Interestingly, people would say that the perspective was all wrong -- but seemed right! Again, I didn't know what they meant because I couldn't see what they saw. 🤣

    I have recently thought that it might be possible that everyone's experience of everything could be vastly and completely different, not only colours, but also things like feelings and emotions. And it might explain why some people really enjoy life and think every experience is amazing, and why for some people the opposite might apply and life is mostly just blah.
