Wow, you could make the perfect home theater room with this material.

Up until the people inside the home theatre become mad after staring at the abyss for a bit too long.

You literally wouldn't be able to figure out where the corners of the room are... you wouldn't know if you're moving closer to the walls or not.

 

[red731]

Remake of Attack the Block imminent.

 

[MWS Natural]

I want this stuff painted on my car ASAP..

Can't imagine the room being very comfortable either. Like a furnace.

 

[PaulExcellent]

Not from the side

...Aww.
Now I'm disappointed.

 

[ThoseDeafMutes]

I want this stuff painted on my car ASAP..

I'm trying to imagine how terrible it will look after a bird shits on it or there's a slight smudge of grease / dirty / dust, ruining the effect completely.

 

[Auto-Reply]

I wonder what it tastes like?

 

[botty]

I'm not particularly impressed by this.

 

[zychi]

Stuff would be perfect to fly in the sky at night time. UFO style.


Scientists didn't develop it, our alien friends gave it to the government.

That's what those crazy lights are in the sky, these black panels fall of their ships from the wind/weather, and BOOM UFO

 

[Konosuke]

I want to feel it's texture, I bet it would be freaky.

and notice the shitty contrast in your modern tv even more? naw son

 

[Maebe]

Feels like staring into nothingness.

Until you walk into it. Which means this would make for some good practical jokes.

 

[Sectorseven]

I wonder if it would feel satisfying to use a toilet bowl lined with this stuff.

 

[SwiftDeath]

Oh my I just had a thought. Imagine an enclosed maze made entirely from this material. It wouldn't even matter if there were lights or not.

 

[TheOMan]

Stare into the Abyss!

And the Abyss will stare also into you.

 

[TheKaeptain]

It's reflecting light dumb dumb.

 

[Makai]

What happens if you're inside a room of this material and you turn on a flashlight?

 

[TUSR]

imagine being followed on the highway by a floating piece of bird shit

 

[JJD]

I don't know why but I read the title as "Socialists invent material that reflect no light" and got really curious.

 

[Just_myles]

All I see are ninjas.

 

[Timedog]

Makes sense. These scientists are trying to pass their socialist agenda on true freedom fighters.

 

[anonymous_abc]

What happens if you're inside a room of this material and you turn on a flashlight?

You would see the lightsource if you look at it, but not the wall if you shine at it. It would seem as if there is nothing below your feet.

 

[trinest]

Just like my soul.

Said one scientist: "I vowed six years ago to come up with a solution to Jocelyn Wildenstein's face, and through the effort of my team and the grace of God, we succeeded."

Real home theaters use projectors

 

[keuja]

That's amazing. You could almost hide in plain sight at night with this. People would just see a hole.

 

[Log4Girlz]

I want to coat a step in this, for the lulz.

 

[RyanardoDaVinci]

*Sing to the tune of "Nuclear" by Mike Oldfield.*

Sitting
On the edge
Of the porcelain
Pooping into the abyss

 

[Shaanyboi]

That sounds... terrifying

 

[Dai101]

Blacker than the Blackest Black Times Infinity

 

[CraigerGamer]

Harry Potter's invisibility cloak was real!!!!!

 

[Grenouille]

So fuligin has been invented.
(although the book cover is not very accurate)

I like this post, friendo.

 

[LycanXIII]

It reminds me of the black aliens from Attack the Block.

First thing I thought of.

 

[shacklesmcgee]

It's like those parts of the universe just don't exist...

I have no idea who Wildenstein is, but loool

 

[Amagon]

They must of scrapped some DNA off of Dieminion.

 

[Charles Foster Kane]

It's reflecting light dumb dumb.

And lots of it.

 

[thebigmanjosh]

I wonder what it would be like to sit in an anechoic chamber where the walls were made of this stuff...

 

[Banjo Tango]

Excellent

 

[b&jy77VjiKn$#F]

It's reflecting light dumb dumb.

It sure is. But whenever I think of it I would imagine it as something pure black, so his post is kinda fitting imo. Kinda.

The first thing I want to do is heat the stuff to 6500K and examine the spectrum.

We can finally make Disaster Area's jet-black stuntship a reality!

whose black levels are nowhere near as black as this material.

 

[anonymous_abc]

Just project it on this black wall.

If you treated the car surface with a hydrophilic nano coating...

(assuming the coating didn't affect the non reflection of light of course)

 

[pottuvoi]

Well, just make silver screen from this material..

I love you for this post.
