Would we interpret all of it as separate colors also?
What would it be like?

We would still see the same colors the ultraviolet end goes immediately to red and infrared goes immediately to violet. You can see them by using pair of glasses with one lens of sunset orange and and one lens of deep sky blue. If you look into a cats eyes you will see both colors in their lenses.

I assume you mean the entire electro-magnetic spectrum. It would likely be processed in our brains as color and intesity variations. The problem comes in when you look at things in the IR which also reflect with a visible light range color. How will we see both similtaniously. You might imagine the object as having a Matte-Glossy finish depending on IR emmision. It could get tricky. What about viewing a red radio antenna in the hot sun. Color -Radio - IR - UV - some trace Gamma. Just fun isn't it.

if you mean the whole spectrum of EM radiation, well infrared and UV, and X-Ray would look like new colors. Larger radio waves, like those measured in kilohertz, would probably be perceived more like sound. I'm not sure how microwaves would be perceived, and gamma rays would probably be too intense to observe. However, given that you could see the entire spectrum, it would probably be too much for your brain to handle. Especially if you could see radio waves. It would look like constant flashes of different colored light coming from all directions (even behind you, because they could travel through your skull) you would probably go crazy.

I would think, yes, if we could see the whole spectrum, that would include being able to interpret all of it as separate colors. What would it be like? hmmm.... colorful? like a kaleidoscope? I'd like to try it out.

Well we *can* see the whole spectrum of visible light. When we see it in its entirety it's white.

It would probably be new colours that we can't even see now. Some animals can see different variations of light that we can't see.

You would see those who exist but remain unseen.

Depends on if it was a bad cube or not.
Josh, that was priceless!
