Philosophy of Colour 3.1 - Primitivism 1

Colour primitivism claims, like colour reductionism, that colours are mind-independent and non-relational: the colour of an object is an intrinsic property of the object, not dependent on the relation between the object and a perceiver or the relation between the object and its surroundings. However, the primitivist holds that colours are irreducible. They exist "over and above" physical properties such as wavelength and spectral reflectance. The video outlines colour primitivism and then examines two objections: (1) the "downward causation" argument that views such as primitivism cannot account for the causal powers of colours; (2) the argument that primitivism faces a skeptical problem. Further objections will be dealt with in the next video.
