I think it may be possible (although I havent done it) but imposible to convey the sensation of the color to the world outside one's mind.

Can you imagine anything that doesn't already exist? For example, aliens? How do you imagine they look like? You cannot imagine something that is so unlike humans. The same way with colors. You can mix any kind of shade on your computer, but still it is just a mix of already existing colors, and not some totaly new color.
I think that a human brain is not capable of that. Can you imagine infinity? The vastness of the universe?

it is possible color blind people see some of the same colors we see but alot of different ones as well Ones we've never evn thought of. I bet it would be hard to think of a new color just like its hard to create something that dosnt already exsisted in our mind

Well, I don't think I high enough to give a proper response to this question lol, but I'm going to say no. Our eyes can see the entire visible spectrum; we don't even have any physical way to comprehend colours outside that spectrum, so how could we imagine them?

only if it's a colour that we can create by mixing the primary colours, i.e., colours we HAVE seen.
if it's a colour which isn't really anywhere in the visible spectra, violet to red and back plus black and white which aren't really colours at all, it isn't. At all.

I mean, try. And you'll see it's not possible. Because the human mind can only store and assimilate, mix and change degrees. Not create.

I think you may be right although it is difficult to see how it could be so nevertheless there may be circumstances in which it did happen - as with drugs and where it was not possible to relate because it did not correspond with colors as we know them.

How about the other colors -- the ones you could taste, touch, hear, smell?

And the ones you could feel?

You are really talking about the job of a graphic artist because that's what they have to do all the time.

Of course!

It is not necessary that everyone see the colors that you see.

It is necessary that you see them.

To convey a color is to diminish the color you see because no one else will be able to see it just as vividly as you do.

Forget about explaining what you see. Just see it.

No because the stimulii which produce your perceptions of the colors you see are unchanging; therefore, without different stimulii to perceive different colors, it would be impossible to perceive colors that don't exist.

Imagination is an exagerration, alteration, etc. of what happens in reality.If a colour is a mixture of colours we have seen, then, yes. If not, no.
