tattoo

Part two of a series of short films from Thinkhouse that examines youth cultures across Ireland.

This week; carving phat ones on your BODY.

James writes:

“We turned our cameras on some of Ireland’s best known tattoo artists – and those whose bodies exhibit their work – to analyse Ireland’s changing tattoo culture.

Skin Deep explores the history and future of tattoo culture with artists from Dublin Ink, Spilled Ink and Dragon Tattoo.”

galway

A cool, refreshing compilation of dives, drops and buck-leps from the Blackrock tower in Salthill, Galway by Christopher Tierney.

“The July 2013 heatwave had the thermometers reaching unheard of heights and sent people scurrying for the cool waters of the Atlantic. Here’s a little slice of Galwegian Life!”

We lost our minds in the sun.

Bold Puppy Productions cast a retrospective look back at what went on in the Phantom Green at the Longitude Festival 2013.

Interviews with the bands, live DJ sets, damn inevitable hipsters and people getting off their faces sunburnt.

Listen back on Phantom.ie
