Interesting interview on BBC4's Today program this morning - Anish Kapoor talking about Vantablack, a nano-technology material that is said to be "the world's darkest material - so dark you can't see it".
Kapoor is working with this material and in the interview he says it has peculiar properties. Because it absorbs light it creates a sort black hole that doesn't have a shape. And Kapoor says that not having boundaries does funny things with our perception of time.
Sounds really interesting!
