  One in nature, many in form

  Nice little film, done by my friends from Spread Motion Design, about my tattoo homie: master Darko. And featuring my brother @ 1:20 minutes.

  Thanks again Darko!

  The master of tattoo put some flying objects on my old chest.

  Always nice to be there and have good talks about things like Hip Hop, spirituality, science and Hemaworstje, of whom we are big fans (Hope you read it Hema!).

  Sailor Jerry

  Documentary about the legendary Sailor Jerry, who was probably the most influential tattoo artist in the USA at the time. Being a true patriot, his mission was to get American tattooing better then Japanese. Great footage of men with hoarse voices and skins filled up with ink.

  Love these tattoos

  I like these loose black ones done by Thomas Hooper. Have to visit Darko a lot more if I want to end up like this person, but I’m getting there.

  I willl never have a job that pays taxes.

  In fact, nobody here at Archibald Kobayashi will, according to this infographic about the place on your body where you have your tattoo. They have it wrong, we pay taxes like shit, but it’s a funny image anyhow.

  (Found on ZXZW, uhhh.. Incubate ;-)

  Body art behind bars

  A slideshow on the BBC website with impressive photo’s (Araminta de Clermont) of South African (ex) inmates full with tattoos. The inmates tell the story about how and why they got them while the slides pass.
