Mathematical Tattoo


I am thinking about getting a tattoo of Maxwells Equations on my back.
I would want them to basically cover my back. I would have one in each "quadrant" of my back. What do you guys think?

Don't do it. Not that I dislike tattoos (in fact I have a bunch of those myself) but when someone asks you the traditional "what do your tattoos mean"-question you're in for a long explanation.

I don't like tattoos, but this idea is so out of the ordinary that I prefer it to other tattoo ideas. The ultimate success or failure of the idea would depend on how it's composed visually, and the style and colors.

Start off by getting some pictures of your back, and then photoshop what you want onto them. Blow these up to poster size, hang them around your place. If you can still stand them after a few months, then take the original images and photoshop them into what you'll look like when you're middle aged and out of shape. If you can still stand these after a few months, then go for it.

Why not content yourself with your willie in a [itex]\pi[/itex] ? That's nearly as good as the real thing - or so says the movie.
