Tomorrow is a special day for David Bowie fans. His latest album, ★, is released, marking his seventh decade of musical activity. To celebrate the release, Radiowa Trójka, Onet Muzyka, and Vevo will change their Facebook profile names to the 'star' font for several hours.
The words 'Trójka', 'Onet Muzyka', and 'Vevo' will be written in the same style as the word 'Bowie' on the album cover. The font, based on a five-pointed star forming letters of the alphabet, was created by Jonathan Barnbrook. The album's minimalist and elegant artwork leaves much to the listener's imagination regarding the interpretation of the star symbol. It's also Bowie's first album without his face on the cover.

The Facebook profile name changes will take place on January 8 and last for several hours. The campaign is not random or anonymous — Bowie's managers noticed and appreciated the efforts of these media platforms.
