If Dre Thyssen ends up doing your tattoo in Johannesburg, South Africa, InkStory keeps the part that doesn’t fit into the image — the person behind the piece, the moment, the thing you couldn’t draw even if you tried.

Take a photo in the app and attach what the tattoo means to you — a voice, a song, a video, whatever the image is pointing at. Aim your phone at the skin and it plays back. Everything stays on your phone.
