  • Perception of Tattoos in Contemporary Japanese Society
    LUND UNIVERSITY • CENTRE FOR EAST AND SOUTH-EAST ASIAN STUDIES Perception of Tattoos in Contemporary Japanese Society Author: Monika Rusiňáková Supervisor: Paul O’Shea Master’s Programme in Asian Studies Spring semester 2019 Abstract This thesis analyses five in-depth interviews on Japanese tattoo culture conducted by the author and ten short interviews with tattooed Japanese people published by Japanese online tattoo magazine. The study focuses on inclusion and exclusion of tattooed Japanese people in contemporary Japanese society, relying on labeling theory and collectivism. The findings suggest that significant tattoo stigmatization prevails in contemporary Japanese society. Tattoos are often percieved as a bad label that is required to be concealed with cloths or make-up. Nonetheless, the label was accepted by the majority of the interviewees who did not want to advocate for their rights of individualistic self-expression. Having said that, there were some participants who refused to submit to the society’s demand for good adjustment. I argue that the willingness to good adjustment is corelated with the values of collectivism. Keywords: Tattoos, Japanese society, Labelling theory, Collectivism 1 TABLE OF CONTENTS 1.

    Seton Hall University eRepository @ Seton Hall Law School Student Scholarship Seton Hall Law 5-1-2014 Copyright Ownership and the Need for Implied Licenses in the Realm of Tattoos Kyle Alan Ulscht Follow this and additional works at: https://scholarship.shu.edu/student_scholarship Recommended Citation Ulscht, Kyle Alan, "Copyright Ownership and the Need for Implied Licenses in the Realm of Tattoos" (2014). Law School Student Scholarship. 596. https://scholarship.shu.edu/student_scholarship/596 Copyright Ownership and the Need for Implied Licenses in the Realm of Tattoos Kyle Alan Ulscht This article argues that there is a need for an implied license to be issued when an individual is tattooed. In spite of a rich history spanning millennia, the legal community has not come up with an adequate system of determining copyright ownership in affixed tattoos. Complicating this lack of certainty in the field of copyright rights in tattoos is the general unwillingness of courts to invoke the de minimus use exception in cases of copyright violation. This unwillingness coupled with the ubiquitous nature of technology and social media could lead virtually every tattooed person to be held to be an infringer and prevent them from a variety of activities ranging from appearing in advertisements, or movies, to more common activities such as posting photos on Facebook, without a complicated trial or trail of paperwork and accounting. Fortunately courts, relying on theories of equity, have invented the concept of implied licenses for instances when a party commissions a work but does not meet the more formal requirements to own the copyright rights of that work.

  • Painting on a Canvas of Skin: Tattooing and the First Amendment Ryan J
    Painting on a Canvas of Skin: Tattooing and the First Amendment Ryan J. Walsht INTRODUCTION "I impose my own set of aesthetics and value judgments as to what beauty is and what it isn't in the context of thp image that [customers] choose," one tattooist says. "I [ ] manifest those qualities in a language."' That language, spoken fluently by an increasing number of self-described tattoo "artists," consists of unique images, honed techniques, innovative color schemes, and other artistic methods or themes. As the tattooists themselves describe it, their work is nothing short of pure art-as expressive as Leonardo's Mona Lisa or T.S. Eliot's The Four Quartets. Yet, unlike Leonardo's canvas or Eliot's verses, the First Amendment status of so-called "skin art" has yet to be determined. The First Amendment, applied to the states through the Fourteenth Amendment,. forbids laws "abridging the freedom of speech."' The Supreme Court has interpreted this language as protecting not only basic political expression, but also nontraditional communicative media' (such as dance,' film,' and music') and expressive conduct (such as burning an American flag'). The Court has also declared-with little explanation-that the First Amendment protects "artistic expression."9 Nonetheless, precedent leaves a fundamental question unanswered: What is artistic expression? t BA 2009, Hillsdale College; JD Candidate 2012,The University of Chicago Law School. 1 Clinton R.

  • “Toughen Up”: Tattoo Experience and Secretory Immunoglobulin A
    AMERICAN JOURNAL OF HUMAN BIOLOGY 00:00–00 (2016) Original Research Article Tattooing to “Toughen Up”: Tattoo Experience and Secretory Immunoglobulin A CHRISTOPHER D. LYNN,* JOHNNA T. DOMINGUEZ, AND JASON A. DECARO Department of Anthropology, University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa, Alabama 35487 Objectives: A costly signaling model suggests tattooing inoculates the immune system to heightened vigilance against stressors associated with soft tissue damage. We sought to investigate this “inoculation hypothesis” of tattooing as a costly honest signal of fitness. We hypothesized that the immune system habituates to the tattooing stressor in repeatedly tattooed individuals and that immune response to the stress of the tattooing process would correlate with lifetime tattoo experience. Methods: Participants were 24 women and 5 men (aged 18–47). We measured immune function using secretory immunoglobulin A (SIgA) and cortisol (sCORT) in saliva collected before and after tattoo sessions. We measured tattoo experience as a sum of number of tattoos, lifetime hours tattooed, years since first tattoo, percent of body covered, and number of tattoo sessions. We predicted an inverse relationship between SIgA and sCORT and less SIgA immunosup- pression among those with more tattoo experience. We used hierarchical multiple regression to test for a main effect of tattoo experience on post-tattoo SIgA, controlling for pretest SIgA, tattoo session duration, body mass, and the interac- tion between tattoo experience and test session duration. Results: The regression model was significant (P 5 0.006) with a large effect size (r2 5 0.711) and significant and pos- itive main (P 5 0.03) and interaction effects (P 5 0.014).

  • Fashioning Tattooed Bodies: an Exploration of Japan's Tattoo Stigma
    Fashioning Tattooed Bodies: An Exploration of Japan’s Tattoo Stigma By John Skutlin, Chinese University of Hong Kong Abstract: This article uses a cultural anthropological approach to examine tattooing stigma in contemporary Japan, particularly in terms of how the stigma has developed and how tattooed individuals engage in various legitimation maneuvers to cope with it. Tattooing has a long history in Japan, and tattoo culture saw a major efflorescence in the Edo period (1603-1868). However, unlike many Western countries, where most tattoos are widely accepted as expressions of individual style and aesthetics, a confluence of historical and cultural factors have resulted in a general antipathy to the practice in Japan, particularly due to its association with yakuza organized crime groups. As increasing numbers of young people go under the needle for what they see as artistic “fashion tattoos,” reconciliatory strategies must be deployed in order to maintain social cohesion and assure adherence to group norms even while violating them. Through historical accounts and ethnographic data, this paper thus elucidates the complicated nature of stigma in Japan and the specific ways in which individuals fashion both their bodies and their strategies to legitimize themselves, showing how efforts to conceal tattoos – even when only partially successful – can be an effective means of reconciling themselves with the general society around them.

  • This Is My Tattoo,” Intersections 11, No
    intersections online Volume 11, Number 1 (Summer 2010) Matthew Hayes, “This is My Tattoo,” intersections 11, no. 1 (2010): 127-163. ABSTRACT What does it mean to own a tattoo? How does the tension between running a business and creating art affect the experience of producing and receiving a tattoo? This project consists of two parts: a written paper and a short documentary film. Based on original research, I explore what ownership means to tattoo artists and tattooed persons, and how this idea of ownership may or may not change when a tattoo is transmitted to film. Several participants conclude that the person who wears the tattoo ultimately owns the tattoo, while others believe all those involved in the experience have a stake in the ownership of their tattoo. While my conclusions are decidedly incomplete, partly a result of the originality of this work, I nevertheless draw attention to the significance of this tension to the way one looks at his or her tattoo after it is completed. I also explore in depth the complexities of using film as a research tool, as well as of conducting “field work” at home. http://depts.washington.edu/chid/intersections_Summer_2010/Matthew_Hayes_This_Is_My_Tattoo.pdf Video component of “This is My Tattoo”: http://vimeo.com/10670029 © 2010 Matthew Hayes, intersections. 126 Matthew Hayes This is My Tattoo 127 intersections Summer 2010 This is My Tattoo By Matthew Hayes1 Trent University, Ontario everal years ago I was slowly pacing the lobby of a tattoo studio in Toronto, S nervously anticipating the experience to come.
