Dining Dynamics

There are seven pairs of diners at this table. Each diner’s fork is connected through a hole in the table top by cables to another diner randomly down the table. The cable is only long enough for one person to eat at a time, engaging all 14 guests to communicate and cooperate in order to eat.
