> DESCRIPTION

On February 8th at 8pm, we’re hosting the first-ever competition for the new sport of Cabling (aka competitive cable untangling), founded by Steven Schkolne, and featuring interns in jumpsuits, a discussion of knot theory, three rounds of untangling various extension and A/V cords, and pretzels.

Qualifying rounds will be two nights before on Wednesday, February 6th, from 7-11pm. If you’d like to try out for a spot in the competition, please email us at machine@machineproject.com to schedule a time to come in on the 6th. We strongly encourage aspiring competitors to come up with intimidating Cabling nicknames for themselves.

More details, and what’s rumored to be a hefty rulebook, to come.
