Nathan,
Perhaps you should read Lila.

No, I'm just saying that about pre-intellectual
Quality.
Nathan: "If you are saying that, then what do you say
about the concept of sonar or radar? Bats are blind
but 'see' through a form of sonar. Their sensory
organs are attuned to 'hear' the echoes of the signals
they send out. "
"So, to a bat, sonar has 'high quality' but to a human
is exists but is of lower quality. "
To a human it exists only as a high intellectual
pattern (an idea or theory), the pattern which
postulates that sonar exists as a biological pattern
for bats. Pre-intellectually, we have no experience of
sonar and are blind to the Dynamic Quality that
creates sonar. But we must remember that the only
thing we are sure of with respect to sonar is that
sonar is an idea. It is simply our assumption that
bats can experience it.
Nathan:"Where is my error or do I have this right? Or
have I discovered a contradiction in the definition of
'quality'?"
Contradiction? It's just a matter of what is doing the
experiencing. If I don't have certain life experiences
as something else, I'll have a different sense of
Quality.
