{{wikipediainfo}}When [[Dynamite Thor (Fox universe)|Dynamite Thor]] entered the pitch-black pocket universe within [[Miss Erehwon's TARDIS|Miss Erehwon's timeship]], he somehow perceived “intensely pink text” which demanded that he confirm that he was not, nor was in any way affiliated with, [[Anish Kapoor]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Set Up to Blow Up (short story)|Set Up to Blow Up]]'') This was the result of the [[TARDIS desktop theme]] being set to “'''Semple''' Black” by [[the Great Intelligence (89067986779811167562948736197891674912223184th Universe)|the Great Intelligence]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[How To Steal Timeships & To Influence Time Lords (short story)|How To Steal Timeships & To Influence Time Lords]]'')

== Behind the scenes ==
This is an allusion to the famous feud between artists {{w|Anish Kapoor|Anish Kapoor}} and {{w|Stuart Semple|Stuart Semple}}. After Kapoor obtained exclusive usage rights for a special experimental paint, known as {{w|Vantablack|Vantablack}} and vaunted as the world's “blackest black”, Semple, feeling that this monopoly was unfair, developed a “[https://stuartsemple.com/anish-kapoor-banned-worlds-pinkest-pink-paint/ world's pinkest pink]” paint and then set a legal condition that people could only buy it if they were ''not'' Anish Kapoor, and pledged not to share the pigment with him. Semple went on to also develop [https://stuartsemple.com/project/black-v1-0-beta-worlds-mattest-flattest-black-art-material/ BLACK], a rival, freely accessible “world's blackest paint” to Vantablack, with a similar exception stating that it would be available to all artists “except Anish Kapoor”. 

The joint implication of ''[[Set Up to Blow Up (short story)|Set Up to Blow Up]]'' and ''[[How To Steal Timeships & To Influence Time Lords (short story)|How To Steal Timeships & To Influence Time Lords]]'' is thus that, somehow, the usage of this blackest-black hue for a [[TARDIS desktop theme]] was still compliant with the terms of Semple's license for BLACK, itself expressed in “pinkest pink”. This suggests that versions of Kapoor and Semple existed in the [[89067986779811167562948736197891674912223184th Universe]].
