A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

Josh’s Eyeball Tattoo Update

This photo is at about twenty four hours from the point of initial injection. This is on Josh, who is the person in the middle procedure in the entry below. The large blue spot below shows how far the ink has spread over the conjunctiva. It’s still spreading and I expect it to spread more over the next day. He’s having no discomfort other than a mild “it feels like there’s something in my eye” because of there still being a slight bulge.

    seems like a just another form of extremes or addiction to body modification manifesting–why all the hate? of course new things are dangerous, but people do risky things all the time for pleasure. seems to me those criticizing just don’t understand it. flying was pretty risky at one time but people were willing to take risks to make progress. this is just a bit different.

    i can guarantee you that as soon as enough eyes are tattooed and the rate of injury goes down, it’ll be big business. inking is addictive, and the eyes are very alluring. its just a race against the clock for the brave artists and their canvases.

    blue though, too Dune, too cliche’. i do hope the palatte extends.

    Josh has always been an oddball (no pun intended). I called him the Duran Duran reject in his younger years when he would wear black lipstick all the way up to his temples.

    It doesn’t surprise me that he was brave enough to do it. He’s one fearless motherfucker, I’ll tell ya that much.
