I know what I’m going to use as a logo.
This was sort of a hard thing to think of. You want something simple but iconic. I also want to avoid cliched symbols like a globe and a compass.
The National Geographic logo was something they just sort of stumbled across when they put a gold border on their magazine 90 years ago.
There people out there who get paid big bucks to think up this shit. I knew that if I just waited long enough, I’d come up with something that worked and had a great story behind it.
It hit me last night….
My tattoo.
I’m going to use the image of the man on my tattoo. It has a backstory. It is iconic. It has a cool name (Tikitikitangata). And most of all, the god damn thing is burned onto my arm. I might as well get my money’s worth
This is something I’m comfortable with. Moreover, it will look really cool when I roll up my sleeve to show someone where it came from.
