If I was gonna get tattoos, I'd want to look just like my hero, Spider Jerusalem.

Piercings and tattoos were on my list of things to do when I got out of the military (like long hair, beard, gut). The problem is that they now violate my sense of "hackerness". Too "default". Too mainstream. I would have loved tribal tattoos but they are too common now.

However, I just started a conversation on the alt.hacker newsgroup on this same subject. We are working on the "next level". Piercings and Tattoos which include LED's and optic fibers inserted under the skin, to simulate borg and cyborg implants. The power source would be worn seperately. Now we just have to worry about the fact that the power arrangment we had in mind is already patented by microsoft.

I want an optic fiber insert of a tribal tattoo on my forehead which is invisible until I look like Im concentrating and then it starts glowing.
(coming soon to the techno-mage.com web site)

Wow, that would be cool. Fiber optic fingertip lights. Or better yet, Fiber Optic nipple lights. How much can your body take? I saw a guy with coral inserts in his skull. I don't know if the coral was still alive or what but it made him look like Satan! I could get a fiberoptic display across my gut and put "Goodyear" on it or whatever else I wanted to advertise.

See my gut, drink Rolling Rock today!

The day i can make my eyes glow a strange colour is the day i will feel complete Of course the means towards this better not involve Plutonium

As for piercings, i felt at one point like getting a lip piercing, but at the moment my cash is going towards better things and i've held out this long so i wouldn't call it an ambition

I've never seen any appeal in piercings, myself. Quite the opposite.
