I agree that it's probably not possible to objectively know what something looks like/what color it is "in reality"--at least until we define reality. In class we spent a while talking about there not being a reality at all, and yet we continue to say that we don't know what colors "really" look like. If real and reality don't exist, we can't be defining things in these ways. I move to define "reality" as the world that human's interact in and percieve collectively. Those aspects of the world (inter-personal perception of colors, actual wavelengths, shapes, corners, parts made up to fill blindspots, etc.) are then not part of this "reality" and so we cannot know for sure what the collective human experience of them would be.
