I have a tattoo which is made up of the sheet music to my favourite Boyzone song - Isn't It A Wonder? - around my right ankle. People think I'm mad, but I point out that if I want to I can tell them it's Bach or the Rolling Stones instead of the actual truth.

And it would *still* be a fugly tattoo.
Naughty tatooist who put the sheet music to "The Good Ship Venus" on the ankle.
Where would be the right place to tattoo the Crab Canon? AFAF.
I find the concept of tattoos silly.
Unless you get one made from magic marker.

How does this work? Do you grind up the paper and make ink out of it, or do you just insert the sheets subcutaneously?

Because NO ONE can read music.
Better.

My extensive tattoos are all in invisible ink so they will only show up in the crematorium.
This is why we in the office have the special machine that takes pictures in all sorts of different wavelengths.
Please place your arm in the machine. See your doctor once the skin cancer develops, but in the meantime ENJOY the partial tan.
I have a regrettable tattoo on my forehead.
Enticing!

This is not so easy with Stockhausen score.
There a couple Varese scores that would also be quite nice if one were the type who enjoyed hypodermic ink injections, or the post-facto visual score somebody did for Artikulation. Or, best idea EVER: soundwave of someone misprouncing ama-ar-gi... FOR FREEDOM!
Glenn Branca had a swastika score...
Because NO ONE can read music.
In her defense, NO ONE can both read music AND recognize that it's from a Boyzone song.
Lots of musical tattoo ideas here.
A commenter at that link mentions Anthony Braxton, who's done some pretty awesome notation. There's a pic at that very blog somewhere.
