I want to get a tattoo. As several things have changed in myself in these recent months (culminating with my acceptance to Ryerson Theatre School) I feel I should immortalize my feelings. I want to get a tattoo.
So, it turns out the field of body modification is itself rapidly accelerating.
As we speak, med school mad scientists push the envelope for what can be done with the equation science + lust for piercings.
But, after doing minor research in the field I think the safest, most methodical process today is getting inked.
Sure, stitching the symbol I want with tiny I-hook piercings and thread (or oled wire)would be cool, but that's a lot of piercings and alot of upkeep. Alot of upkeep. Like a life-altering amount of upkeep.
So a tattoo it is.
But where? On the back of my head where it can easily be hidden with hair in my later adult life (or not).
The symbol?
'1.0' (no quotations) on the back of my head above the neck. In an OCR font, the one invented, or at least postulated by Ray Kurzwiel (think: credit card font).
Dark black.
I have to also tackle the challenge of keeping my head shaved and conditioning the skin.
Midway through July will be my goal for this experiment.
