Paint with it.Stuart Semple is so full of gentle but pointed snark and a burning desire for accessible art, I love him. I love that no matter what Anish Kapoor does, Stuart Semple will be there, making fun of him and selling affordable art supplies to anyone who wants them.Iit smells like black cherry? Fuck yesIs that the same guy that gave him a middle finger by making the wordest brightest pink and putting in the terms of use that the Vantablack asshole is the only man not allowed to use it?I love this because it’s like watching a comic book fight between an art themed hero and his super villain nemesis that wants to keep all the art things to himself. Yes, and that same jerk broke said terms of use by having someone get him the pink pigment and he then literally gave Sempleand the world the middle finger, after dipping it in the pink pigment. No class whatsoever.Semple responded by somehow getting Vanta Black (or his own newly made pigment, can’t remember which) and giving the peace sign to everyone with two voided out fingers. Seriously, they looked like a bad video edit.Sounds like he’s attempting to flush his reputation down the crapper with keeping such a huge advance in art technology to himself AND throwing a tempter tantrum over the backlash.I’m glad this Semple dude is standing up his bullshit. Ya’ll are missing one very important point: Vantablack is caustic. Direct skin contact can cause really gnarly chemical burns. Despite that, the “void is staring back at you” black is something just about any artist would want to experiment with, even if you need to handle it as a hazmat chemical.So, Semper’s peace sign in his own “deep space between stars” black is downright incredible as it’s SAFE. Anyone can use it, it even smells good without the scent affecting the color or consistency.An artist in his studio whipped up a safe alternative to a pigment that chemical engineers have to make in a controlled lab. Semper’s vengence led to a breakthrough that benefits artists of all levels the world over, and that’s just lovely.It’s like he used the power of righteous hatred the same way some people use the power of love.His intense need to spite the VB asshole let to him making a scientific breakthrough that shits all over his product. Spite is a really grate motivator…imagine inking dice with this thoI’m going to do a custom MLP with this stuff someday…. -- source link
