Do qualia evolve? I am sure they do, thus our ancestors of
100,000 years ago probably saw colors differently. We may see
pink where they saw red. Of course the full color blind (due to
brain process defect) see only shades of gray. Eye defects usually affect
one primary color. The shades of gray quale may become very
refined through evolution. See "The Island of the Color Blind" by Sacks.
The "sense qualia" probably evolves.
The various processes of our brain are IMO represented in our experience
as "self qualia", "mind" being one such (others : feelings, consciousness,
personification, etc.). Thus several layers
of evolution may occur, the processes and the representations, thereof.
The use of qualia in association with self is unique to me.
Here is the normal usage :
