Digital Design Smackdown: Cut&Paste to Host First Global Championship

They may sound staid, but Cut&Paste‘s digital design tournaments are the creative world’s equivalent of a monster truck rally. Having cut and pasted its way through 16 cities and 256 fearless competitors, the competition’s global tour has narrowed the field to 48 designers who will battle it out on stage in the first ever Cut&Paste Global Championship this Friday, October 16, at New York City’s Hammerstein Ballroom. Expect Layer Tennis times a hundred (and minus the tennis), with a tech setup that will register every mouse click and tapped command from the competing designers’ workstations and project them live on large-scale displays in full view of the audience.
