Because according to you, color is not something that exists in the world. So why should filtering out some of the wavelengths of light that hit his eyes cause any particular experience in his brain?
The brain is getting a different neural signal from the eye. Therefore it is making a different experience.
The person has all the mechanisms in the brain to create red. But they never got the proper signal from the eye to cause the brain to create red.
They are experiencing red for the first time. That makes grown men cry.
That's not what is happening though. I've already explained twice how these glasses work...
The glasses change the neural signal the brain is getting from the eye.
And when the brain gets a different signal it creates a different experience. Color is not the signal. It is not the stimulus on the eye. It is the experience.
Our experience of shape is an experience. But it is an experience of something in the world.
Just like color. But the experience of color is not the color itself, just like experience of shape is not the shape.
Absolutely not.
The shape can be tested. If you bump into the object but don't want to you are not experiencing the shape correctly. The object is there.
If you fall over the cliff you did not see the shape of the cliff correctly.
The animals that don't make a good representation of shape will not survive as well as the animals that do. The experience of shape is self correcting. It gets better and better because the better you approximate shape in your experience the better you survive.
There is no way for an animal to approximate the proper color. There is no such thing as the proper color. Color is arbitrary.
In terms of mammals and apes like humans it is good for survival if the skins of fruit are vivid colors like red or yellow. Therefore the animals who by chance makes yellow out of the light reflected off bananas will survive better than the animals that makes grey out of that light.
Just like color. Traffic lights would not be very effective if people could interpret "red" and "green" in ways not corresponding to the actual color of the light.
That just shows that the same species makes the same experience of color when exposed to the same colorless energy.
The fact that humans share the same experience of color is due to their genetic proximity.
It is not evidence in any way that color is out there. What is out there is energy that has no color.
Color is not a property of the objects that reflect color, it's a property of light.
Anthropocentric nonsense.
"Light" is simply the small part of the spectrum that excites the human eye. "Light" is an anthropocentric concept based on human experience with energy.
You think that the arbitrary manner in which humans experience energy is some universal. That is anthropocentric nonsense.
There is no way for a brain to know which color it is supposed to present to consciousness based on the frequency of energy. The colors created are the colors that helped with survival the best. They have nothing to do with the world and everything to do with evolving organisms trying to survive.
