      Because it’s a representation of an actual painting, but if we’re going to be overly semantic then I give up. You win

          It’s light traveling from your phone to your eyeballs.

          Then it’s neuronal signals to your brain.

          OMG it’s abstraction all the way down, isn’t it!? :-P

            Those neurons are cells and they need the mitochondria which uses protein to make energy… so everything is just energy in some form or other

              And energy in turn derives from the sub-atomic level, which itself sits on top of the quantum, although some people say that it is all oscillations of n-branes… therefore do any words ever have any meaning, really, ever?:-P
