Discovery Channel is casting for a new reality show called Super Rubes.
Super Rubes is a weekly one-hour show that follows a band of talented creators as they design, build, and set off a massive Chain Reaction Machine in front of a cheering crowd. The point of a Chain Reaction Machine is to do something very simple, like turn on a light bulb, using as many steps as possible. This is an opportunity for engineers to let their creative hair down and have some fun building a giant Chain Reaction Machine. Our team will take on impossible challenges (i.e. “Can you crack an egg with a human hair?”) in a race against the clock.
We are looking for fun, interesting, charismatic and outgoing individuals of all ethnicities and types 25-39 years old to comprise a diverse team of people who are involved in engineering/building: This means architects, engineers, scientists, pyro-technicians, art directors/designers, even professors or hobbyists who are simply passionate about these topics. We don’t need an expert in every area, just someone who loves to design and build.
I think Bre Pettis from Make Magazine should definitely apply. However, I think Discovery Channel should look no further than it’s own team on Myth Busters. So, are any of you going to apply?
