@ProfessorDaveExplains 8:00 sorry, but this is misleading. i know everyone does this - i've only seen one video on the subject - but cones don't detect colour - there is no colour in objects or light, colour exists - is created - only in the image making part of the brain. cones detect energy levels of photons, not colour.
i came to this video because i am not clear how any information gets to the brain, that is, electro-chemical signals tell the brain about taste, smell, light, but how exactly is that information conveyed / encoded? it can't be digital (i imagine), and there certainly aren't tubes of paint snaking around the eye. i believe neurons work by transferring ionisation of sodium . potassium / chlorine, but how is the INFORMATION , the colour, the taste, encoded?
and please do a video explaining that objects and light have no colour, this is a big misconception that the vast majority of people can't get their heads around - i'm tired of arguing with people on this. thanks!!
