Copyright and tattoos: who owns your skin?

Jordan Hatcher did a fascinating presentation on copyright and tattoos 
at Gikii, last week's UK conference on copyright law. Hatcher explores 
the legal ramifications of tattoo artists who assert copyright over 
their works after they've been inked, objecting to the tatts being 
displayed in advertising -- and even seeking to prevent old tattoos from 
being erased! The presentation isn't online, but the slide deck is, and 
it's a really interesting read.
