The following description comes from the event organizer.
In their new coffee table art book The Universe in 100 Colors: Weird and Wondrous Colors from Science and Nature, science enthusiasts and advocates Tyler Thrasher and Terry Mudge dip into this vast variety of colors and the niche roles they fill. From brilliantly adapted pigments in nature to human-made hues with specific functions in mind, The Universe in 100 Colors takes readers on a technicolor tour well beyond the rainbow. Through vibrant full-page visuals and corresponding snappy color commentary, expect to learn about colors created by tropical trees and deep sea creatures, by aerospace engineers and radioactive chemicals, by sound waves and by the absence of light entirely.
