Looking Back: “The Blow“ Dry humor at it’s best. Seeing her for the first time last year at The Prophet Bar was an unexpected treat. It’s not just a concert. It’s a little bit of performance art, that includes freaking hilarious stories and awkward silences after what feel like dramatic moments.

Thanks to my boyfriend’s French music obsession I got to see Canadian singer Cœur de pirate’s version of The Weeknd’s “Wicked Games” and I have to say it’s probably the best cover I’ve heard to date.

 ”the hand is the easiest way to get something down,” says Everett Katigbak, a communication designer at Facebook. Most of the walls at the company’s offices around the country have been coated with dry-erase or chalkboard paint or a treatment for glass to allow employees to sketch ideas whenever they arise. The company’s offices are filled with jottings, from mathematical equations to doodles of cats and dollar signs.


That’s why I went to Home Depot and bought mirror mounts and screws and a $12 thin board made for bathrooms and / or laundry room walls. 

What did I use?

White Board material can be anything you can easily and repeatedly wipe off. A lot of blogs say to use some type of board called melamine, I just bought the stuff called “thrifty white panel board” because it’s way cheaper, lighter and works just as good. 

Mounting the board:

The majority of blogs I found mention that they use glue to make the board stable and they screw it in around the edges. If you live in an apartment or you are renting an office you’re gonna hate replacing the sheetrock when you move and have to pull it off the wall.  

Instead of destructively mounting the board, go over to the area where the mirrors are at your local hardware store and find mirror mounts that are only just as thick as the board. See example You’ll need quite a few if you stick with the original board size which is 8 x 4 ft. If the board is going to be too big, take measurements and find an associate at the store to point you to the wood cutting area. Don’t worry, they will do the cutting for you.

The board cleans just as easily as a normal white board. I’ve used everything from Windex to those Magic Erasers from P&G and it’s still holding up well.   

If you wanna get crazy with a much bigger setup.. this one cost all of $60 to setup.

We live in a kind of digital feudal economy these days. We live on land we don’t own, and we provide the masters of the realm (Facebook, Google, etc.) with unlimited free access to our data and behavior, which they monetize for billions of dollars. We get to keep our little plots of digital land for free and are otherwise pretty much at the whim of the feudal masters.
