Or when you try to remember what it looked like, come up with nothing. Then there's the all important question: How would you describe it? I think you can equate this to the asking DCs to tell you the funniest joke ever. You'll hear it and think it's hilarious but when you wake up it's just nonsense. However, yes you can persuade yourself while dreaming that you saw a new color but in reality you didn't.

you sound a little too sure of yourself here
but you are probably right

I love how this has turned into a philosophical discussion.

I know we have a set color spectrum, but there have always been constants:


-The type of light we see it in

-The limitations of the human eye

-The limitations of our knowledge past what we ourselves see

-The limitations of our mind to set apart these colors


For example, how do you know there is a fourth dimension if we can't see it? What if there is a type of light that nobody can see or prove with our clumsy scientific devices?

Imagine being able to see everything.

Seeing everything in the universe on from the tiniest detail to the largest perspective. Seeing everyone's thoughts, emotions, actions. Seeing the past, the future, what never was, what could have been, how things happened, seeing ourselves from an unbiased view, seeing everything for the first time and as if we'd seen it before. Seeing infinity, all the possibilities... The possibilities in our universe would seem infinitely small to what you can do with infinity. We could see time, we could see how it has always been, but never was...

Now in that deep thinking state, tell me that you can't create a new color.

And tell me, how far-reaching our our scientific capabilities if we are using the very fabric we are trying to study? It's like somebody being given clay to build something to find out more about clay. And maybe, someone out there is appreciating the level of thought we are gradually achieving.

Just as this smiley would look like an infinitely ridiculous compared to the Universe. ()

Maybe in the future, we will have explored so many possibilities that smaller variation are gradually more appealing, until we are so minutely perfectionist that we see art in everything.

Besides, unless we give back to the Universe in thinking, contemplation and philosophy as well as changing the enviroment for the betterment of it's inhabitants, we are nothing but a rapidly multiplying virus that consumes and moves on.

That is why art is so important.

And that is why the mind is our greatest tool, and is unbounded in all the areas that would normally be bound in our Universe.


I got a little carried away, but on purpose. Now in this state of mind, and not from a narrow human perspective, post your replies.
