Time and location TBA.<br><span></span></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 13.3333px; font-family: HelveticaNeue,Helvetica Neue,Helvetica,Arial,Lucida Grande,sans-serif; background-color: transparent; font-style: normal;"><br></div><div>
The board is light and sound sensor enabled, as well as outcomes can be set-up to be controlled with a TV remote. So, if you are interested in coming to join us to build a different Christmas experience, beam out
morse message lights or become a human blinking and singing Christmas
tree, please let us know. </div>

The board will be available for purchase in a DIY kit or stand alone on Michael’s <a href="https://www.tindie.com/stores/krazatchu/" target="_blank">Tindie</a> page. <br></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 13.3333px; font-family: HelveticaNeue,Helvetica Neue,Helvetica,Arial,Lucida Grande,sans-serif; background-color: transparent; font-style: normal;">http://megansmith.ca/hack-ur-baubles/<br></div><br>hack ur holidays!<br><br><div> </div><div><span style="font-size:13px;color:rgb(91, 91, 91);"><span style="font-weight:bold;">Dr. Megan Leigh Smith, BFA MA PhD</span><br><a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://twitter.com/cawsand"><font class="">@cawsand</font></a> on twitter<br><font class=""><a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.megansmith.ca/">http://www.megansmith.ca</a></font></span></div><div class="" style="font-family:arial, helvetica, clean, sans-serif;background-color:transparent;font-style:normal;"><span
