  • Prelude to the Fall

    The first time I had the chance to see a Go-Pro camera was at BMEFest this summer.  This little compact camera seemed indestructible.  It’s no wonder that “extreme” sports enthusiasts are embracing cameras like it to record their antics.  Chad is one such rider.  He was visiting his friend Jackie Rabbit at Star City Tattoo in Roanoke, VA to show off his latest video.  While they were watching it he had the urge to get a biking related tattoo.  Jackie sprung into action.  She quickly rewound the tape to the moment right before Chad took a header into a ditch.  From that still came this, a sports tattoo that captures the moment perfectly.

  • The Hip to Heart Ratio

    A while back I featured a number of microdermal projects that were coming out of Europe.  The idea is to create large designs using microdermals over the course of 1-2 sittings.  Will Luterzo from Pleasurable Piercings in Hawthorne, NJ has started to do similar projects and here’s one of his creations.

    Its tricky to see in the photo, but the 2 hearts have different colored gemstones, white for the large heart and pink for the smaller one.
