Most of concepts that we assume are intrinsic to reality (like color and sound pitch, or even the feeling of hot and cold) are just our brain interpreting small fragments of physical reality, and then filling in the blanks. Your world is your own creation.
you don't see that there's a thing across the place. you sense that the light that came from it hit your eye. you sense literally only things you interact with directly.
