Doodle Tuesday: Weeping Hat

It’s Doodle Tuesday again!

My doodles are generated somewhere in between consciousness, dream and deep focus. I am not sure where this one got its characteristics, but it turned out slightly disturbing. It was a long day.

Doodle Tuesday: Banners

Reading Time: 1 minute

Doodles are a natural product of a stream of consciousness created during periods that require concentration and abstract thinking. I never know when a Doodle is going to go, but I know immediately what patterns it will be following. Starting a meeting Doodle is like taking a path, and walking it until you are tired, without questioning it or really knowing where you are.

This week’s Doodle is a bit of an exception. It started with a line of star-people, and it ended up being about banners. I did this on a Rocketbook Everlast, letter size, using a purple Pilot Frixon. ...

Doodle Tuesday: The Stuff of Nightmares

March 6, 2018 by Lorenzo Pasqualis Leave a Comment

Reading Time: 1 minute

There are very few things that can ruin your day as much as Git being down. That’s exactly what happened to BitBucket (and the whole Atlassian suite) last week on 3/2/2018. This doodle commemorates that rare and unpleasant occurrence. Hopefully, this is not going to be a recurring theme.

Doodle Tuesday: Signs

February 27, 2018 by Lorenzo Pasqualis Leave a Comment

Reading Time: 2 minutes

I have been using a RocketBook Everlast reusable notebook for all of my notes and doodles for a week now, and  I don’t think I’ll ever go back to normal paper anytime soon. I am officially a believer.

What I noticed:

  • I take many more notes than usual. I had to think a bit about why that is, and I figured it out. It is precisely for the same reason why I shoot more pictures with a digital camera compared to a film camera. It is cheap and as temporary as I want it to be. I am not afraid to ruin a page or to write or draw something dumb that I’ll have to look at for a long time. If I start a page of notes, and if the page ends up being useless, I just erase it. If I like it, I capture it and it goes in Evernote.
  • The “paper” is very smooth. The pen glides on it without feeling resistance or texture. It is a very comfortable sensation that I enjoy more and more as I use it. It makes me want to write on it.
  • If I just want to erase an illegible word or a line that bothers me, I can use the eraser on the cap of the FriXon pen. Each of them comes with a hard eraser that works perfectly on the Rocketbook notebook. I don’t know if it will shorten the life of the notebook, but I don’t really care that much. It is convenient, and it makes things much easier.

    Doodle Tuesday: Bad Dreams

    February 20, 2018 by Lorenzo Pasqualis Leave a Comment

    Reading Time: 1 minute

    I have been using Moleskines for many years, and I only recently came across a new reusable notebook that might change my note-taking habits. The jury is still out, but so far I am really liking what I see.

    If are not familiar with reusable notebooks, they work like magic! The 30 seconds summary is:

    1. Write on the notebook with an erasable pen. Pilot makes a large array of models under the name “Pilot FriXon.”
    2. Take a picture of your notes with your phone and a special app. The page is cleaned, straightened and sent to your favorite cloud note archiving system (Evernote, OneNote, Dropbox, e-mail, etc…)
    3. Take a damp cloth and wipe the page clean.
    4. Repeat, forever.

    Of course, my doodles are starting to appear in the new notebook.

    So, here it is! This Tuesday’s doodle is the first one that I created using a , a , and my iPhone X that I used to take a picture of the image. ...
