This New House

We discover inspiration and a call to action in the fold-out pages of Low-Power DJ Quarterly: a set of blueprints for the Perfect House for a Radio DJ. In the space of an hour and a half, we lay a foundation, call in the carpenters, electricians, plumbers, painters, and interior decorators, and have a new home, with 3 minutes left to spare, in which we build a sailboat with the leftover scraps.
