BME: Body Modification Ezine

A tattooed person suspends from hooks, laying flat, one leg higher than the other. Their head is back, and they seem to be smiling, dark hair dangling like an anime character.

Celebrating body modification culture since 1994.

    BMEtv – Mike Rubendall

    Written by

    Rachel

    Mike Rubendall is based out of Massapequa, New York but you’ll often find him anywhere around the world at various tattoo conventions with Henning Jorgenson (BMEtv Episode 3!). If you walk into a shop around the world, you’ll no doubt see flash on the walls drawn by Mike. Norm and I even saw tons of his flash in the walls of a shop we stopped in at on Maui, Hawai’i. Check out the video to learn a little bit more about Mike.

  • An American Boy from Russia

    Written by

    He didn’t leave an IAM name but he did say he’s from St. Petersburg. Russia. He was out with a friend who wanted to take photos of him. His implants are by Arseniy Andersson from Saint-Scalpelburg in St. Petersburg. If you look closely, I think his arm is greylined and he’s begun work on sleeves. It’s pretty amazing to see such a blank canvas with implants. At first I was about to reject this submission as not having mod content because his skin is so fair.

  • High Wire

    Constant Elevation just played a pretty damn good trick on my eyes. I was like, “OMG! Norm come check this out!” and then he pointed out that he’s just holding a bike with no front tire, not riding a unicycle on a tight wire. Either way, I’m going to keep telling myself it’s a high wire act!

  • Chance of Meatballs?

    I don’t know if you’ve seen “Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs”, I haven’t, but I have seen the new Best Buy commercial featuring Justin Timberlake and the characters in the movie. When I first saw this photo I laughed out loud. Swoon did an impressive and funny job. Though I’m not sure what else there is to do in St. Johns, Newfoundland in the middle of winter. These cute cheek piercings are by Craig Cutler of Trouble Bound.

    Stretched lobes, check. Stretched Medusa, check, Stretched upper ear punch, Stretched Lowbrets (?) Check. What else am I missing?? Look closely and if you don’t see it, check the tags for a clue!
