David Bowie’shauntingly beautifulBlackstarwas the artist ’s last natural endowment to us all , shortly before he break down last year . But as it turns out , there was one final surprise hidden in the foldout cover of his last L-P .
One Redditor discovered that if you expose the binding for Blackstar to the sun , it changes from the standard pitch-black design to one show a starfield . allot to another post on the same thread , the effect is come across when a shining light is shined through the back of the cover , since a remainder in the thickness of the paper have a bleed - through of the starfield on the interior of the cover .
In an interview with decorator of the binding Jonathan Barnbrook at the time of the album ’s release , Barnbrook enunciate Bowie “ always want to do something interesting , often to the irritation of the book company . ” I guess this qualifies .
