Science Nerds Tattoos | Tattoo Ideas

Is interdisciplinary curiosity and unexpected pollination of ideas across different fields. Nowhere is that more cross-pollination unexpected between science and popular culture of tattooing. That's exactly what that celebrates the curiosity dealer Carl he in Science explores Ink: Tattoos for Science Obsessed - an almanac of weird and wonderful endearing geek who immortalized passion for science in their flesh. he divides the book into sections around each of the major sciences - mathematics, chemistry, neuroscience, evolutionary biology, astronomy, and even a whole chapter on the DNA - and uses every tattoo as a meditation pillow where to reflect on science in his unmistakable style questions test intelligent wit.

The project idea was born in 2007, when he asked his blog readers if scientists had hidden tattoos of their science. A surprising number increased, and he began posting images of the ink in Discover magazine blog. The rest is history.

Without meaning to, I became a curator of tattoos, a student of the ink of science. I started to give people advice on how best photograph of a tattoo. Rule number one: Do not take a picture right after receiving the tattoo. Shiny skin, swollen, not pleasing to the eye. Tattoo enthusiast magazine called to interview me. However, it was a strange experience, I have tattoos on my own and with no intention of getting any. But the question I posed open brought a river of pleasure.
















Tasteful, thoughtful, and tempting, ink reconcile your inner geek Science and rebellious, and then dust off your old science books mischievous inspiration.
