the new black

“Researchers in New York reported this month that they have created a paper-thin material that absorbs 99.955 percent of the light that hits it, making it by far the darkest substance ever made -- about 30 times as dark as the government's current standard for blackest black.” Introducing the new black. Yes, black is back, but this time . . . it’s superblack.
