i dont think you would see anything
what would a singularity look like?
there would be no reference points so there would be no distinguishing one thing from another
seeing everything would be the same as seeing nothing

i have always thought about this, i always fear it would be extremely overwhelming, but it would really depend on how much processing power you have going on in your mind.

It depends on how the brain is going to interpret these new frequencies.
When we have images in other ranges (such as infrared for thermal imaging, or microwave for astronomical observations), we have to apply colours in the visible range to represent frequencies that would otherwise be invisible for us.

If this were a natural ability, the most likely result would be that the colours in our current visible range would be stretched to now represent the entire spectrum. For example:

Red would be radio waves.
Orange would be microwaves.
Yellow would be infrared.
Different shades of green/green-blue would be what we now call visible light.
Blue would be X-rays.
Violet would be gamma radiation.

Some of the consequences of this would be:

The hotter something is, the more yellow it would appear.
The sky would no longer be blue...rather, it would be red with all the radio waves floating around. There would be no trouble finding the best wireless service...just head for the darkest red.
Stars would still twinkle white, as most stars cover a broad range of the spectrum. The only difference is, they would be brighter. This includes the Sun, which might be too bright to even go outside.
People might actually look somewhat similar...just a little more yellow, not to mention green.
Everyday objects would be shades of green and yellow.
Nuclear tests and former nuclear test areas would glow purple.
Doctors offices would have a blue hue where X-rays are taken.

It would certainly be fun getting used to.

If it weren't an ability we had naturally, then we would be blinded (not white light, though...our brain would have no register for these regions of the spectrum, so it would probably either be black or some form of optical static). Being blinded would probably happen so fast that the brain would likely not have to endure much, though the shock may be enough to make someone pass out.
It would definitely hurt. Having that much damage done to the eyes all at once...I imagine gouging your own eyes out would be the way to go.

. . .what would reality look like?

Here is an example, when you seen across the spectrum from radio to X-rays:
apod.nasa.gov...

Go there every day. . .for very nice pics:
apod.nasa.gov...

Blue skies.

Hmm ... perhaps it would look like ... exactly what you see now ...

Why can i not perceive air flow through sight ..... probably because air flow isn't perceivable without influences (dust , trees , water )

Reality would look like exactly what it does now , you perceive everything you are capable of perceiving without instruments and influences.

So do you mean what would a Fantasy look like? Anything you want.
