About the Cabled Madness Performance Series

Attention: "Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. I have some good news and I have some bad news: The good news is that we have a very strong tail wind. And we're doing 1400 miles per hour over land, the bad news is that all of our navigatin instruments are out and we don't know where we are and we don't know where we're going. And that's our situation, our science and technology is a tail wind the like of which we've never had before. We're going so god damn fast." -jw
Interested to book a flight? crazed cocktails, freaks, no smoking zones, lots of cable, and state of technology- hacked, grounded and freshly pressed. Climb aboard the 21st Century and experience it live now: Intelligence without morals beyond 1400 miles per hour.
