Color requires a location in order to Exist
Just recently, I posted a thread on the Lichess General Discussion Forum, claiming that all things need both shape and location in order to exist. As a rebuttal, someone offered color as an example of something that exists without needing both shape nor location. I replied to that objection in the following way
Color requires a location both as a concept and as a perception of phenomenon.
1. As a concept, it is located in the human brain.
2. As a perception of a phenomenon, it is located in the human brain.
This also applies to similar ideas which are claimed not to need location in order to exist.
Also, I assumed that it would be easily understood that when referring to needing a shape in order to exist, I was referring to things that are composed of matter and not ephemeral concepts or ideas. However, if we are going to get technical, then there is definitely a shape to the electrical impulses in the brain that represent the concept of the color green.
