hypothesis and provide experimental data that shows such identity.

I think you have it backwards.

The burden is on you to show that the "experience of red" exists and
it's distinct from a class of neural electrochemical states.
Otherwise, the Occam's razor tells us that "experience of red" either
doesn't exist or is another name for "class of electrochemical states
that occour in the brain when it's visually exposed to red light".
