Anti‐Atomism about Color Representation

Abstract: According to anti-atomism, we represent color properties (e.g., red) in virtue of representing color relations (e.g., redder than). I motivate anti-atomism with a puzzle involving a series of pairwise indistinguishable chips. I then develop two versions of anti-atomism.

“…For these reasons, I think that structuralism gives us the most promising response to the challenge of perceptual variation. As I noted in the introduction, I also think it gives us promising solutions to other puzzles (see my , ). But perhaps most importantly, I think it gives us a coherent and plausible way of thinking about perception.…”

“…The challenge of perceptual variation isn't the only motivation for perceptual structuralism. In an earlier paper I argued that it gives us an attractive solution to a puzzle involving a series of pairwise indistinguishable chips (Morrison ). In an even earlier paper I identified a puzzle for anyone who accepts color realism and a traditional view of perception (Morrison ).…”

“…There are a number of other responses. But the obvious alternatives all have drawbacks (see Morrison, ), and, as we'll see, the problem with the triangulation response is subtle, so it's no surprise that this response has received so much attention.…”
