Let's consider one particular shade of deep cherry red. Let's
take a very high end digital color reproduction device. Such devices
could produce hundreds of different shades of that red which you, I,
the worlds best artist, or any human could never distinguish between.
Yet a very simple "color detecting" device at the local paint store
could distinguish between them all with no problem. So I take it you
would consider such a non complex machine which is clearly superior
to the worlds best artist at resolving differences in color, to be a
far better artist?
Clearly the difference is, our representation of such a
simple shade of red, though it isn't quite as complex, is simply
"phenomenal", "artful", "spiritual", "motivational", "emotional",
"joyful"... or whatever you want to call it, rather than some
"abstract" or mapped, doesn't matter what the actual physical
representation is made of binary number.
