How are you guys doing?

What's up everybody?
What's new? What's happening?
Well here at Conspiracy Inc. stuff is brewing. Changes is in progress.
I will wait a bit before revealing more about these things but there is still stuff I can tell you about.

We are still looking for one artist to join the crew. I think some people took the add a bit tooooo serious.... Chill people... I just really want a great artist who wants to make great tattoos with us great people! So send us a mail with your work and a bit about yourself. Don't be shy! But please... no apprentices and please note that I am looking for a tattooer who has experience. Thanks.

The pre-sale of the Black Metal book has started and will go on till the end on june. There is a normal preorder option and then.... OMG... there is the VIP option! Not only will you get the amazing black metal book as soon as it comes out but with the VIP you will also get two prints (specially made for this), 3 postcards and some stickers to go along with the fancyness. I am also hoping to throw in a patch to put on you sweet ass battle west.
You can go check out more details about the book HERE
And order your copy HERE


Speaking of ordering stuff...
I just added a bunch of originals to the Conspiracy Inc. webstore. I also added the leftover t-shirts and totebags that I got made for the Brighton convention, so it is on a limited amount left and these will not be re-printed. Go shop 'em HERE


There is also a bunch of paintings left on the Dirty Secret Club that I would like to get rid of. It's hard for me to get motivated to paint something new as long as I have a stack of paintings that is waiting for new homes. For you who are already members you know where to go. I am having a sale on 4 of my latest pieces there. Email me at onkelallan@gmail.com


There is also some good news for those of you who have been waiting for me to come back to the states. I looks like I will make it back not just once but twice in the foreseeable future. First plan is to go to Portland in July. A place I have been wanting to visit for many years and I am excited to get the chance to work with one of my all time heroes, Seth Ciferri, and the rest of the cool gang at Lombard Street tattoo. Dates to come pretty soon.
Then for the east coast people, I will be returning to my New York peeps at Red Rocket Tattoo from the 12th of October till the 30th of October. You can email me at onkelallan@gmail.com to book for these trips... or in general.

It also looks like I will be back in Bergen in the end of August. No dates set yet but keep it in mind and keep an eye on here or on my own blog or twitter or instagram... something... Dates to come soon.

Now that these trips are coming into place, I can might as well start booking from June till November. Just send a mail with idea, placement, size, budget and what not to Onkelallan@gmail.com. Yes there is still a few open spots I would like to fill in both June and Juli so pack your sunscreen and shorts and come hang by the canal with a cold beer and come see me and get a cool tattoo. Yep! I will be hiding inside tattooing.

September should be interristing too. If everything goes according to plan, we will have the pleasure of having the amazing Electric Pick back with us for most of the month. But keep an eye on his own profiles here and there for more info. Speaking of Nick... Go check out his store for books and prints and posters... I know there will be a brand new one up soon. HERE

Ok... I think that's all I have time for this time, but I will try to come back soon with more updates.

See you all soon!

Artist Wanted!


We are missing some life and new energy in the shop so we figured it was time to add to the Conspiracy Inc. family.

I will start by stating something very important:
THIS WILL NOT BE AN APPRENTICESHIP!

Here is a few things we do require from you:

-You must have been tattooing for MIN 3 years in a studio and have shop experience. 
-You have to be able to do clean straight lines and solid colouring...this really shouldn't be necessary to mention but I'm afraid it is. 
-High hygienic standard.
-You have to be able to get your own clients. Conspiracy Inc. is a private studio in the 2nd backyard with no street traffic. This is important! Conspiracy Inc. will of cause blog about you but this is not a springboard to boost your career so getting/bringing your own customers to the shop is a must. 
-We are not looking for some part time tattooer who is traveling half the year. This doesn't mean that you are locked down but we are looking for company, not an empty workstation. So if you have plans to travel the world, then maybe do that first.
-No rockstar attitude, no drama, or giant egos... Jakub and I have enough of that for all of us. 
-You must be able to listen to the epic musical version of War Of The Worlds by Jeff Wayne from 1978 and preferably LOVE it.
If you aren't familiar with this masterpiece then I suggest you look into it before applying for this spot!
-You must be willing and excited to participate in shop events, be it halloween or flash walk in days... even if it requires to be dressed up in silly costumes! So if you take yourself to serious to be a bit childish and dressed up like an idiot, then this isn't the shop for you. 
-You must have a diverse taste in music. Despite popular belief, we do listen to more than just black metal and Bruce Springsteen. 


A few things that will be good to know for you.

We do like to sing and dance along to crazy music. Sometimes it will be metal... sometimes J-pop or Robin or some classic rock... just a little heads up...
We have a big shop with a waiting room, work room, private tattoo room and drawing room. I am hoping that we will be able to have drawing nights or paint nights as a shop thing at least once in a while. I am slowly building a screen printing room and a darkroom for developing photos, and we have a wood shop, that all, will be available for you as well. The goal is to have as many creative possibilities available as possible. So being creative in other areas, than tattooing, is not required but it is appreciated.
I expect everybody in the shop to help out when/if needed. How cheesy it might sound, I want the shop to be a team. If you are just looking for "a workplace" then this is not for you.


How to apply.

I don't consider Facebook or Instagram a portfolio, nor a professional way to apply for a workplace. If you want me to take you serious then show me that you are worth my time. 

If you really want to suck up to the teacher, then send a real application in the mail. That tells me that you put some effort into this and that is always appreciated. 
You can send it to:
Conspiracy Inc.
Hauptstrasse 155, 2. hof
10827 Berlin
Germany

Since I know that it is a lot to ask you can also do it electronically and send a mail with the following:

-A minimum of 10 photos of different tattoos. You can attach a file or folder or attach the photos to the mail. It has to be clear photos without filters and stuff. Instagram photos doesn't count. If you don't have good photos of your work then I suggest you get it.
-Write a little something about yourself. We need to know who we are inviting into our "home". 
-Not required, but if you can add examples of other works of yours, it will be appreciated.
-Where you have you worked? Write a bit about your background. 
- Links to blog or website... noooo, still not interested in your facebook. You can add your instagram name but I prefer a website or blog and consider this more professional. 

Email applications can be send to:
Conspiracyinctattoo@gmail.com
Subject: Artist application 

Since I have gotten many guest spot requests from people who shouldn't even be tattooing, I ask that you take an extra look at your own portfolio and consider if your work is strong enough, to work at Conspiracy Inc. before applying. 
There is always room to grow and become better but I am looking for someone, who can also bring something to the table. 

All applications will eventually get a reply. I will only send a reply, but not a reason for a possible rejection. Don't take it personal. Either you fit in or you don't... or maybe you didn't write a good enough application... so get too it!
Since I don't know how many applications I will receive, I don't know when a final decision will be made, so the position is open until we close it here on the blog.
All contact and applications will be handled with discretion.

We are looking forward to hear from you.

Febuary frenzy

What's up good people of the internet!
How are you? How have you been? What's new with you?
Well, here at the bunker February have finally come and that means that one of my best buddies has finally returned for his annual visit... Mr Electric Pick. He is already booked up for appointments but he did bring some goodies with him for sale. There isn't that much to grab so act fast on this if you want. Shoot him a mail about prices and setting up a time to come grab it.
Electric Pick is also the mastermind behind the "Dirty Secret Club" and rumours has it that there will be a special update session this month where it also will be possible for new members to join. But more about that as we have the plans down. There has even been whispers about a dirty Valentines walk in day... If any one wants to encourage that please let us know in the comments. I can't hear you through the screen. 

What you see is here is what Mr. Electric Pick brought with him.



But Nick is not the only one to visit us this month. The worlds best Dino Baby will be here as well. He will be joining me from the 8th-12th but only have time on the 10th I think so don't sleep on this people. Shoot him a mail about getting your self a sweet tat from this ink wizard!
You can catch him on  Info@themagiclair.com






I myself will be heading back to Bergen and my Let's Buzz family between the 17-20th of February. I am coming back to shoot some bands at Blast fest but I will have time to do a few tattoos in the daytime before the mayhem starts, so if anyone is interested in getting something done while I am in town, send me a mail on Onkelallan@gmail.com
I know I have been back to Bergen a lot but I don't know when I will have time to come back so please don't wait till "Next time".

This is also an ABSOLUTE FINAL CALL for anyone who want to get a black metal inspired tattoo and be a part of the Black Metal book project I am still working on. You can obviously always get a black metal inspired tattoo from me but I am closing the folder for what will make it into the book really really soon. So If you want to get something and be part of this epic book project then send me a mail with your ideas and when you would like to get it done. I have a few openings in febuary and some in march, but after that it is too late. So send me a mail and lets do some evil tattoos! 

A quick reminder that I will be doing walk ups on the upcoming Paris convention between the 4th and 6th of march and at the Brighton convention on the 30th of april- 1st of may.
I will also be back at Inkrat in Tokyo from the 1st-19th of april. To book that contact Hata at inkrat00@yahoo.co.jp

Finally I want to remind you that both Jakub and I are taking appointments from now and some months ahead. Jakub has openings the next few weeks that he would love to fill up so hit him up!

Ok.. gotta go work before seeing ABBATH and BEHEMOTH tonight!!
