These barcode tattoos (temporary) are completely awesome, even if they area sign of the apocolypse.

Can you imagine using these in an electronic music performance?

via scottblake:

Some believe bar code tattoos to be a sign of the apocalypse speculated about in the Christian Bible, which states people will “receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark of the beast”.

I personally do not agree with the mythological connection, but imagined what the sinister mark might look like.

I use Code 128 style encryption to make temporary bar codes tattoos that can be scanned.

Remember Andy Moog Boy’s Transistor Ladder Filter tattoo?

Last time we saw it, it was looking a bit sore and nasty.

Now it doesn’t look sore at all.

The tat reproduces the circuit design of Bob Moog’s seminal Transistor Ladder Filter. Now that’s hardcore!

Andy Moog Boy’s Transistor Ladder Filter tattoo was inspired by Bob Moog’s famous synth filter design.

Note that one of the transistors in Bob Moog’s Transistor Ladder Filter has been filled with the circular Moog Music Inc logo!

Can anybody identify the synth in this awesome synth tatoo?
