A short post today but with a few very interesting links:

‘Be smart with body art’ is a campaign started in CA to make tattoos and piercings a safer experience for people.

‘Visibly modified’ people sharing their experiences: ‘skin deep.’ People and their tattoos also in a new German TV program ‘my tattoo story.’

A concept very much like the *in*famous art fusion but with a local touch in ‘Artist Fusion.’

Elayne Angel was the first tattooed person ever who copyrighted her backpiece; here’s an article about the local town copyrighting their logo: ‘tattoo image fee.’

 I liked this article a lot: ‘before he was a brand, Ed Hardy was a real person.’
