This bizarre body art is an interesting combination of technology and art. Bosch created a [QR code tattoo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/orca-scan) that each time it’s scanned a new thing will pop out on the screen. As the names suggests, this [interactive ink](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/interactive-augmented-reality-mural) will randomly show different things like videos, pictures, phrases, weather forecast and tweets. The concept is pretty interesting and fun; however, it lacks the [true nature of tattoos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mark-of-life) and tattooing, which is a real art. With the Random Tattoo by Fred Bosch, it will be almost impossible to get bored with its design as it only needs to be scanned to change shape. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.1/10 - Popularity: 37% | Activity: 79% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Interactive Body Ink:** The trend of QR code tattoos that display different content when scanned opens up opportunities for immersive advertising experiences. - **Technology-infused Art:** The fusion of technology and traditional art forms, as seen in the Random Tattoo, presents disruptive innovations in the art industry. - **Dynamic Personal Expressions:** The ability of tattoos to change shape and display different content offers new possibilities for self-expression and storytelling. ### Who This Affects Most - **Tattoo Industry:** The tattoo industry can explore incorporating technology into body art to enhance customer experiences and create unique offerings. - **Advertising Industry:** The advertising industry can utilize interactive QR code tattoos for engaging and personalized marketing campaigns. - **Art Industry:** The art industry can embrace the integration of technology into traditional art forms to push boundaries and attract new audiences. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Progressive Rewritable Tattoos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/magic-ink.md) - [Palm-Sized Tattoo Printers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/temporary-tattoo-device.md) - [Generative Art Tattoo Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blackdot-1.md) - [AI Tattoo Generators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ai-tattoo-generator.md) - [Online Tattoo Art Marketplaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blackdot.md) - [Scannable Tattoo Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/whopper-tattoo.md) - [AI-Powered Tattoo Printers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/imprintu.md) - [AI-Powered Tattoo Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blackdot-device.md) - [Custom Tattoo Generators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ai-tattoo-creator.md)
