ANAGLYPH TATTOOS.  Maybe he will prepare a workshop on Anaglyph Tattoo
Design for Riverside and have a Tattoo Artist standing by so folks will
be able to get their favorite saying, name/whatever as a Anaglyph Tattoo.
  Ray- if you ever get the logistics worked out on the Anaglyphic Sky
Writing, I would like to fly the "Blue Airplane".>

Actually, Bill, there is very little in the arena of 3-D that has not 
been attempted.  What I believe is the world's first anaglyph tattoo 
was applied to the upper right shoulder of Marilyn Gatewood of 
Springfield, Mo. in October of 1984 by New York tattoo artist Joseph 
P. O'Sullivan.  The tattoo is entitled "Homage to Marilyn Monroe" and 
it was lifted (and horizontally flopped) from a panel in the story 
called "Fair Play" with art by Dave Stevens and Jim Sullivan from the 
1984 Pacific Comic "Three Dimensional Alien Worlds" for which I 
produced the 3-D conversion.  I reprinted this story in the 3-D Zone 
compilation "Space Vixens" along with a B&W photo of the tattoo from 
an AP wirephoto in 1989.   Thanks for the offer to fly the "Blue 
Airplane" for the anaglyphic skywriting.   I'll keep you in mind when 
the day comes.
