<p>Travis' first <a href="/index.php?title=Tattoo" title="Tattoo">tattoo</a> was the word "BONES" (a nickname when he was a kid) on his leg which he got when he was 17 years old. Another notable addition is the phrase "SELF MADE" spelled out across his knuckles which he got in 2000. Some of Travis' numerous tattoos include religious art as he says he was brought up Catholic. He has a portrait of Jesus above his left biceps, hands in prayer on the left side of his head (visible with his signature mohawk) and a Sacred Heart. He has a few tattoos that symbolize his love for cars and Cadillacs in particular - two racing flags on the side of his neck with the number 66 which symbolizes the year of his favorite Cadillac and a Cadillac emblem surrounded by mudflap girls on his chest as well as a pair of spark plugs.

</p><p>Much of his body art is devoted to his love of music such as the phrase "Can I Say" which is the name of Dag Nasty's first album, a microphone, and a boom box on his stomach for his love of breakdancing when he was growing up. He also has the word "HOPE" on his back because of the Descendents' song and something positive after his mother's death. He has another tribute to the Descendents on his leg - the cover art to the album, I Don't Want To Grow Up, drumsticks and musical notes on his right arm.

</p><p>Travis also makes several tributes to his family with the phrase "familia" on his arm, Japanese flowers on the back of his neck with a heart that says "Mom", and another heart with "SHANNA" on the banner. He also has the name of his first wife, "Melissa," just above the racing flags on the side of his neck.

</p><p>He considers his right arm his "good luck arm" and so has many luck emblems tattooed on that arm such as a deck of cards, dice, a dollar sign, his lucky number seven, a skull with the number 13 in the eye sockets (13 is a lucky number in the tattoo culture), and a rabbit's foot, in addition to a martini glass, his initials, a devil from Black Label Skateboards, and a spider web surrounding his elbow.

</p><p>In explanation of his large number of tattoos Travis has said, "I tattooed my body so I couldn't fall back on anything. I purposely did that so I couldn't get a normal job and live a normal life. I did it so I had to play music." Travis claims to have spent over $50,000 on his body art.

MODIFY is a movie about having the right to do whatever you want to your own body. This film stars Fakir Musafar, Jim Ward, Masuimi Max, Steve Haworth, Stalking Cat, and dozens of procedures in stunning two-camera detail, from tanning, waxing, bodybuilding and tattoos to plastic surgery, trans-gender surgery, suspension, and scarification.

Synopsis

All of us know we should not pre-judge others, not to judge a book by its cover. Does this feeling of acceptance apply to people who modify their body beyond what is normal? Extreme is relative to perception. It is human nature to fear what we do not understand. What is ‘normal’?

Everyone modifies their body in one form or another to help show on the outside how they feel on the inside.

Using entirely original music, including over forty never before heard songs from more than twenty new artists, this original groundbreaking documentary hits the screen rockin’ right from the start.

For the first time ever, in their own words, the finest, most well spoken, talented, surgeons, piercers, tattooists, cutters, body artists, and pioneers of body modification in the United States, show & tell it all in the Committed Films motion picture ‘MODIFY’.

You will meet more than thirty of the most amazing modified people that have ever lived, and the body artists that have changed them forever. The cast and crew of modify traveled the United States and have filmed more than fifty body modification procedures including tanning, waxing, piercing, branding, scarification, genital beading, elective amputations, bodybuilding, tattooing, tongue splitting, non-surgical implants, plastic surgeries, trans-gender surgeries, and everything in between.

Why have they chosen to do this to their bodies?

MODIFY explores their thoughts on the difference between body modification and mutilation, their feelings on discrimination, addiction, religion and the legal limits regarding the right to choose what someone can or can’t do to their own body.
