Radar Six - Cut & Paste

Design has not normally been thought of as a performance art, but Cut & Paste are looking to change that. For the last two years John Fiorelli and his team have been traveling the globe, taking the concept of live digital design to more and more communities. Now, in 16 cities across the world, designers compete onstage in a battle for supremacy and the chance to win the global championships. In a series of quickfire rounds they create original works from scratch, and are judged by a jury of esteemed peers from agencies and brands. We follow Ryan Kennedy (Designer, Deep Focus) as he prepares to partake in the NYC tournament, and talk to John about why he constructed a place for designers to create in public.
