As if being blind isn't enough, an Art Designer student in Berlin has created the world's first Braille Tattoo, a piece of surgical steel, titanium or medical plastic which can be implanted under your skin and read via touch. Inventor/ designer Klara Jirkova envisions the first Braille Tattoos placed in the piece of skin between the thumb and the first finger, so that when people shake hands; your hand(?), they can read your names and find out how hip you really are. (Wired Blog) (Keeping tabs on the number of "things" that can be implanted under one's skin; first computer chips and now art ?)
