Why are we not able to see beyond three dimensions?
Rog\'erio Martins

TL;DR
This paper explores the philosophical and perceptual limitations of human three-dimensional perception, offering analogies and imaginary experiments to suggest the possibility of perceiving higher dimensions.
Contribution
It provides a new perspective on dimensional perception by drawing analogies with color perception and proposing imaginary experiments.
Findings
Perception may be limited to three dimensions due to biological constraints
Analogies with color perception illustrate potential higher-dimensional experiences
Imaginary experiments suggest the possibility of perceiving beyond three dimensions
Abstract
This is perhaps a philosophical question rather than a mathematical one, we do not expect to give a full answer, even though we hope to clarify some ideas. In addition, we would like to provide a new perspective on the subject. We will find curious analogies with the way we perceive color and make some imaginary experiments showing that, even living imprisoned in three dimensions it could be different.
