If you check out my website you will see that I do not call these things entities. All we can know in phenomenal experience comes to us via active interface processes between inside and outside. We normally consider dimensions as referring to space and time and these are concepts derived or abstracted from phenomenal experience that have no knowable reality as things in themselves. Things like color are qualites, even though they may have a certain frequency that can be measured by active intefrace processes in our instruments. Nevertheless light is detected by active interface processes in the retina of our eye and it is translated by further interface processes between inside and outside through our nervous system that gives us a subjective perception of objective phenomena. There are articles on the nervous system on my website that demonstrate how our experience is meaningfully integrated synapse by synapse from various sensory inputs. A new methodolgy is offered to the sciences. This is more than conjecture. It finds direct and very precise confirmation with the empirical data as well as with our personal phenomenal experience.
