Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

Also a cool thing about imaginination, is you don't have to stick to or define all the parameters to imagine it. You can go like, I'm imagining in this imaginary senario I've figured that part out, and just run with it.
True, but when we say we can't imagine something, we don't mean a mental construct that we don't think through, we mean something tangible. In case of color, it means actually visualizing it mentally, not imagining there could be something.
That sounds self imposed.
Nah, just two different meanings of "imagine".
One is to imagine a color
And the other to imagine there is a color.
Not really seing how those are different forms of imagination. And also, still imagining the color, just ignoring the limitations or letting them fill themselves in.
I can picture a solid color that sparkles evenly, or even that has just one shimmer evenly across the whole surface, however the initial premise was just the limits of imagination, and you don't need to self-impose a bunch of parameters onto it like you're engineering something in real life. You don't need to imagine it 100% accurate to the point where you could reconstruct it, even partially imagining something is still imagining it, and you can even expand on it over time.
