physicalism and vision

Perhaps, colors are objective non-relational physical-object properties and are describable in physical terms {physicalism, color}. For example, physical colors are surface-reflectance ratios. Object surface color remains almost constant during brightness and spectrum changes, because surface reflectances stay constant. Because objects with different surface reflectances can cause same color, physical colors are disjunctions of surface reflectances. However, experience does not provide information about surface reflectances or other physical properties.
