lol ... post a failed 1998 paper (in the form of a 2006 video) and try to extract curiosity value? Sure the OP knows this but Dr Quantum was disputed as the method they used to "watch" the particle caused interference ... to use the was analogy it would be like trowing a set of fishing nets in the path of his wave and wondering why the interference was not observed. As for the existence of color ... it exists in the same way sound does, or for that matter (no pun) the same way you weight something, a glass of water for example. To say that color does not exist amounts to saying that you yourself do not exist, as you are nothing but a collection of base elements perceived by another. But that would also mean that your post never existed, as it to is now represented as a replicated set of electrons on multiple screens. Someone needs to look up and inhale some air.

  • If a tree falls and no one can hear it, it doesn't make a sound because sound is a mere perception. But touch, feelings, pain, taste, smell, and sight are all perceptions. So maybe we are living in a perception and after death we perceive another life made up of cooler creatures that are more advanced.

  • [quote]If a tree falls and no one can hear it, it doesn't make a sound because sound is a mere perception[/quote]Nope ... still makes a sound. The movement of the tree through the air as it falls ... and then as it hits the ground ... all this creates vibrations which ripple through the air - that is the sound, that is fact and it happens if you are there or not. Your world of perceptions also falls foul of recorded or recounted events. If a child retells you of a past, one which you deny exists - which you fail to recall or perceive. Later you recall, maybe from a video recording ... that perception continued to exist even when you originally failed to recall its existence ... that is reality, and it does not rely on you for its existence.

    Yes sound waves are produced. But sound can not be sound without a brain to perceive it. And if our brains are perceptions then waves are perceptions because perceptions are perceptions and thus we are perceptions. Sound is transmitted to our ear through waves. It turns into fluid membrane inside our cochlea and causes hair to be bent. When hair is bent we have neurotransmitters sent off to our brain to perceive the sound. Therefore, sound is a perception.

  • If a tree falls in the woods then some filthy animal will hear it
