Would you like a cool tattoo, and are you tired of seeing all the same pix of hearts, skulls, dragons or barbed wires? Have a look at Science Tattoo Emporium, a project, part of The Loom, a blog run by a science writer Carl Zimmer. Here is a large (250+) collection of photographs of science-prone tattoos, from the DNA spiral to a dodo picture. Now, Carl Zimmer published a book about this phenomenon, Science Ink: Tattoos of the Science Obsessed. You can read a short review by Charley Parker, with links right here.
