There is no single thing called temperature. It’s a macroscopic illusion that comes from the collective behavior of random motions of atoms. There is no single thing called wetness, it's an emergent quality of H2O atoms, if they are numerous enough to create that quality. <br><br>I think that, similarly, consciousness is an emergent quality of neurons operating in a complex nervous system. You can't pin it to any single neuron in your brain. Or to any atom, or subatomic particle. I can't imagine, how panpsychism would provide a better understanding of reality, by labelling atoms as having a -very basic - conscious experience. How does that change our understanding of the behavior of an atom? <br><br>How is this whole thing not just a case of Sagan's imaginary dragon?,(reply>), @Kadri Jonuzi are you talking about why we enjoy seeing colours when experiencing them?,(reply>), @Kadri Jonuzi im confused at how our brain would differentiate colours in the dark?,(reply>), @Kadri Jonuzi experience as in experiencing a sensory phenomenon. If you mean experience as in things being recorded into our memory. Well thats also physical,(reply>), @Rishy Fishy Experience is not necessary for a physical system to differentiate between and respond to different colors. In the case of light each wavelength of light captured sends a unique signal through our optic nerve to our brains in the first place.<br><br>Experience is not necessary for a physical system to process sensory input or produce output. It even doesn't appear to be necessary for a physical system to be intelligent or respond to emotional (hormonal/neuronal) incentives released in order to meet regulatory targets. Likely, we will see the physical mechanisms will account fully for those capabilities and behaviors without even a hint that something such as our own inner subjective experience should or need exist.,(reply>), @Kadri Jonuzi the necessity of the experience is that we can differentiate different things around us with vision through colour. This has helped us become a rapidly expansive and thriving species. Lot of the why can be explained by evolutionary psychology and biology
