What it is like to see the colors of particular fruits
I am the person getting all these color patterns
Electrical signals is the "currency" of the brain, yet I don't experience it like this
Another interesting aspect is the difference between the number of signals at the input
and output. In one second, the eye can make three panoramic movements and it takes
about 0.050 seconds to expose one image. However, in the process of transmission,
the number of bits of information decreases and then in the process of information
processing the qualia again become voluminous in terms of the amount of visual
information.
