<div>If you want to bring LEDs and batteries, that would be fine, we
can help get them up and running! Lee's sells very bright 1 watt RGB
LEDs for $9, which would work nicely in most conditions. Add a couple
of AA's in a battery holder and a switch, and you have a nice little
LED light. </div>

<div class="h5">We've got a week packed with awesome at VHS for
all the hackers, crafters and makers out there.

<div>Tonight, Monday July 19th is our second VHS craft night, and
first VHS craft night workshop. We're going to doing some modular
origami. What is modular Origami? Well our workshop host <span
style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; border-collapse: collapse; line-height: 19px;">Mathew
has provided an awesome description:</span>
<div><span
style="font-family: arial,sans-serif; font-size: 13px; border-collapse: collapse;"><span
style="font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px;"><br>
<b>Modular origami</b>, or unit origami, is
a paperfolding technique which uses multiple sheets of paper to create
a larger and more complex structure than would be possible using
single-piece origami techniques. Each individual sheet of paper is
folded into a module, or unit, and then modules are assembled into an
integrated flat shape or three-dimensional structure by inserting flaps
into pockets created by the folding process. These insertions create
tension or friction that holds the model together.<br>
<br>
</span><font face="sans-serif"><span style="line-height: 19px;">We
will be making one of three modular constructions of 12 or 32 units
ranging from beginner to intermediate skill level. Mathew will bring
some origami paper, but for those who want to pick up paper,
Yokayaya123 in International Village (Tinseltown) or Daiso in Aberdeen
mall have a large selection of 6" x 6" sheets in many colours and
patterns for $2 a package of 30-100</span></font></span></div>

<div>This Thursday, July 22nd we are holding a workshop on using
openFrameworks. <span
style="border-collapse: separate; font-family: Arial,sans-serif;">Openframeworks
is a c++ library designed to assist the creative process by providing a
simple and intuitive framework for experimentation.</span></div>
</span><span
style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
<p>The library is designed to work as a general purpose glue, and
wraps together several commonly used libraries under a tidy interface: <a
