Reminds me of some of the stuff I learnt studying cognitive psychology for a brief period. Stuff like there's a certain part of the brain that deals only with interpreting colour from impulses in the visual cortex, if it ever fails we won't just see in monochromes - we won't even be able to remember what the colour red looked like as we will have no capacity to conceive what colour actually is. Freaky stuff.
