Actually, by <i>reflecting more</i> light, that means the object would be <i>absorbing less</i> light. Less light absorbtion means it'd be darker.
One very cool fact that a good friend of mine told me a few months ago is that any object is every color except what we perceive it to be. For example, a 'green' leaf on a tree is every color <i>except</i> green. Therefore, the leaf will absorb every color except green, which is reflected and therefore visible to us.

Look at something very light in bright sunlight dosent it reflect alot of light? Take something black and put it in the bright sun it wont reflect alot of light and is easy to look at. Also wait for a while the black object will become hot because of the light energy it has absorbed. Black is the abcent of light if something reflects light then it wont be truly black.

You're exactly right.
Think of it this way: Place a projector on the ceiling of a plane. Place the green material on the floor of the plane. Place a camera outside the plane, on the bottom. Now, you have a 'transparent' floor.
At least, that's what I gather this experiment is dealing with.

white light is all colors in one, prims break normal light- making the disco effect
all objects are colorless, some objects just absorbs certain colors from the light that hits it, making them <i>seem</i> that they are ex. green.
