A licensed Skin Motion artist will also be able to incorporate other designs for those who want more than a simple sound wave. For this reason, Soundwave Tattoos need to be created by licensed tattoo artists from Skin Motion’s artist network. Of course, there are limitations regarding the types of sound and their placement. It’s possible to tattoo the sound wave of just about any sound, from your child singing a nursery rhyme to your beloved dog barking (and yes, this has been done) or the last voice message you received from a grandparent. Astonishingly, up to a minute of audio can be “recorded” in this way. Skin Motion then generates a Soundwave Tattoo template that can be taken to a certified Skin Motion artist. It’s really very simple: Upload a song snippet or sound to the Skin Motion website. The overwhelming response to Nate’s Soundwave Tattoo video led him to found Skin Motion. He quickly realized that it was possible and set about creating a Soundwave Tattoo for himself: A recording of Juliana saying “I love you” along with their 4-month old baby laughing. This is exactly the question Nate Siggard, tattoo artist and designer from Los Angeles, was asked one day by his girlfriend, Juliana. But what if the music really can be you? What if you could transform your favorite tune or even voice into a part of your body? The song perfectly captures how meaningful music is to us, how it can express our greatest hopes and dreams. In 1958, Frank Sinatra recorded “The Music is You”.
