Tattoo
I was having a conversation with my flatmate Ben about tattoos. We were talking to Amie, a girl in our climbing class about her tattoos. Ben expressed interest in getting a the outline of the Periodic Table. That made sense because Ben is a Chemical Engineer/Chemistry double major.
This got the gears turning in my head. Why EE related tattoo would be neat and interesting?
The idea of getting a tattoo has been in the back of my head for a number of years now. Originally, it started out as (naturally) some sort Star Trek related design: the Vulcan IDIC or Star Trek Command Insignia.
The IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) has a pretty spiffy logo:
I think the arrows are particularly spiffy since they represent the right-hand rule which is so often used in electrical engineering.
With that all this in mind, I mocked up the following tattoos:
The original IDIC
The original Star Trek Command Insignia
Right-hand Rule arrows (IEEE)
Combined Star Trek/IEEE
In any event, it’s not something I would get before graduation. I’m also not set on the getting it on my wrist. It was just a convenient place to mock it up.
