What are you talking about? Walk me through a hypothetical explanation of red-ness via physical processes. Try it, and you'll look ridiculous. "Well, redness is actually a fluctuation of synaptic fields in …" I'm talking nonsense, but it doesn't matter, the point is clear. You will never arrive at some string of sentences or diagrams or formulas that will somehow jump the gap into the qualitative. You will never read words that will make you say, "oh, so THAT'S what red is". People struggle to describe tastes of certain foods because they are so irreducibly singular, you think formulas are going to help (beyond what's merely correlative)?
