The History of Tattoos (A Host Swap Livestream!)

Body-art aficionados rejoice! MFFI finally takes on tattoos...  Long before tattoo machines, sterile needles, and flash books, humans were finding creative ways to decorate their skin. In this week's host swap episode, Duncan traces the history of tattooing from sooty sticks to rotary guns to a nightmare future of automated skin-printers. Follow along to find out how tattooing went from ancient ritual and social taboo to the red carpet, the runway, and the mall. ~ Become an Insomniac!
