On Friday October 16th Cut & Paste will take over the Hammerstein Ballroom with 48 competitors from around the world (16 different cities) duking it out for design championship and victory. Onsite and webcast viewers can tweet during the show with #cutandpaste, and all the comments on the work as it’s happening will be shown on screens between each round. Interactive awesomeness.

Want in to the event with a pair of free tickets? Tweet “I want to go to #cutandpaste NYC @joshspear” and I’ll choose two lucky winners randomly by the end of the week.

The Kymera Magic Wand allows you to wave a magical Harry Potter like wand to flip to the next or last channel, rotate clockwise to turn up the volume, and many more gestures (13 in total). It comes in a faux dragonhide box with Chinese silk brocade. Gorgeous.  No, no no, it’s awesome.  And I want one for my Keynote presentations on stage or in front of clients.
