Isn't nature beautiful
David Bowie and Nudibranchs are both otherworldly creatures, one came from outer space, the other is found in all of the Earth’s oceans, both are some of the most colorful creatures ever seen on earth.
To find out what else they have in common please follow our favorite new Tumblr blog, @bowiebranchia, which pairs fantastic photos of David Bowie from throughout his career with spectacular marine gastropods whose bodies match Bowie’s outfits, makeup, and hairstyles.

And then there are the so-called “forbidden colors” called red-green and blue-yellow, because scientists suck at naming things. We know they exist, but our retinas piss all over the very idea by crudely approximating them to their base colors when sending the signal to the brain. In an experiment conducted in 1983, researchers figured out they could make volunteers actually see these colors using specifically constructed striped images where one half of an eye’s retinal cells could only see one color while the other saw the other, basically overloading the eye until it went “screw it” and unleashed the forbidden hues.
The volunteers saw colors they had not seen before, but had no words for what they were looking at. It sort of broke their brains for a minute.
Seeing this would make me frolic like a school boy lol
