Now I've seen everything! Check this out. Braille tattoos for the blind Posted: Oct 22nd 2007 10:01AM by Rigel Gregg Filed under: General Health, Health and Technology
Tattoos are an artistic expression of individuality, style, and art, and have (until now) only been appreciated by those with the gift of sight. But now, through the efforts of a student at The University of Arts Berlin, you can also make a statement that can be felt and appreciated by the blind. By having a series of small beads or a sma ll plate embossed with text (made of stainless steel, titanium, or plastic) implanted under the skin you can have an expressive work of art that can be appreciated through both sight and touch. It's braille for your skin! http://www.trendhunter.com/trends/braille-tattoo-blind Would you do it? I'm thinking with color maybe, but without it just looks like an organized group of zits.
