Monochromatic's Argument

Professor Fisher, in 2004, said that color affects human beings in many ways, on both the conscious and subconscious levels, every day of our lives. As Professor Fisher stated, color affects us so many times a day, that often times we don’t even realized it’s happening. Think about all the things you have done today, that in someway involved color. For example, think of a stoplight and what each color on it means; without those colors we would not have the technology of a stoplight and therefore our everyday driving wouldn’t be quite as easy.

Part 5: Connect the argument with facts that prove your points. Note the areas of objections and offer concessions if needed.

Support for Thesis 1 (Write a topic sentence that supports your thesis and provides a transition between the paragraphs. Then, record at least three details that provide support for the topic sentence.)

Introduce the first main point of the argument. Then, provide evidence from the sources. Multiple pieces of evidence should be provided to support the main point.

In assessing the argument, it can be said that it is a valid argument since the conclusions logically follow from the arguments given they are true.

In this article titled “Analyzing Arguments: Those You Read and Those You Write” goes over multiple strategies and examples to help you analyze the meaning and purpose of a specific argument and how to strengthen your own.

Lastly, I’lol be discussing Churchland 's interpretation of Frank Jackson’s Argument: Knowing our sensations. Churchland explains Jacksons argument as “showing the differences between knowing our states via introspection and knowing via non-introspective means are of such nature as to constitute grounds for denying the reducibility of psychology to neuroscience” (Churchland, 4). I 'll be summarizing Churchland 's summary of Jacksons constructed argument. A neuroscientist (Mary) who lives her entire life seeing no colors but

First, we worked on developing a good thesis statement. I told her that a good thesis statement has an argument and is very detailed. You want to be as specific as possible in the thesis statement because it is the road map for the paper. I told her to write down her main ideas and formulate her thesis from there. Then, I had her read the paragraphs one by one followed

I do not consider the reply to be successful because Mary is doing more than learning how to see and recognize colors; she is intertwined in a comprehensive phenomenological experience concerning colors. Mary’s acquisition of a new perception of the world is reflective of a direct conscious experience rather than merely an ability. It is through the direct experience of an individual with phenomena that one can begin to garner phenomenal knowledge. One’s direct experience with phenomena that allows for a conscious extension beyond physical properties of a physical

This method is tried and untrue as her entire argument comes from something that is not recognized by both

The following is a thought experiment by Jackson to undermine Physicalism. “Mary is a brilliant scientist who is, for whatever reason, forced to investigate the world from a black and white room via a black and white television monitor. She specialises in the neurophysiology of vision and acquires, let us suppose, all the physical information there is to obtain about what goes on when we see ripe tomatoes, or the sky, and use terms like ‘red’, ‘blue’, and so on. She discovers, for example, just which wavelength combinations from the sky stimulate the retina...What will happen when Mary is released from her black and white room or is given a colour television monitor? Will she learn anything or not? It seems just obvious that she will learn something about the world and our visual experience of it. But then it is inescapable that her previous knowledge was incomplete. But she had all the physical information. Ergo there is more to have than that, and Physicalism is false” (Jackson 130). At this point of time, Mary supposedly

He believes that the reaction a person has when seeing red for the first time can be explained purely using physical information. Therefore Mary, knowing all physical information, would learn nothing new. However he agrees that Mary could learn something in a new way.

Through her talking, we could see that she did use a lot of evidences to prove her argument. It included case study, experiment, and observations, and

Have you ever looked at a painting with vibrant colors or at a poster with amazing color scheme and wondered how the artist and designer chose these colors and made them work together? The answer is they’ve consulted their intuition and the color theory. The color theory is like a formula that guides creators to choose colors that work together in harmony and design. According to the color theory there are different categories based on the color wheel: Primary colors, Secondary colors and Tertiary colors (Colormatters.com, 2015).

Throughout Guy Deutscher’s “Through the Language Glass” the discoveries and the idea of color is discussed. This includes the theories of Geiger, he predicted that certain cultures were not as evolved and that a color sequence existed that said the order of colors as they come into language. Next was W.H.R. Rivers, Rivers predicted that certain cultures could not see colors as vividly as other cultures. The last being Berlin and Kay, who predicted that the differences in color was not because of biological factors, but rather environmental and language factors. It is true that color is not an arbitrary concept because of environmental and language factors because of the findings of Geiger, W.H.R. Rivers, and Brent Berlin and Paul Kay.
