Hello digital creatives, new media artists, makers, and the like!<br><br>Below is the updated schedule for Dorkbot and friends' one day conference FrayedWire on Saturday, July 11th, including five workshops. The workshops are limited in size (10-15 people each), so please save your spot by registering now at <a href="http://frayedwire.eventbrite.com">http://frayedwire.eventbrite.com</a>. Full descriptions of workshops and presentations are on the program page: <a href="http://frayedwire.com/program">http://frayedwire.com/program</a>. If you want to sign up for more than one workshop, email <a href="mailto:shelly@wagglelabs.com">shelly@wagglelabs.com</a>! Want to get in for free? We need volunteers! Again, email <a href="mailto:shelly@wagglelabs.com">shelly@wagglelabs.com</a>.
<p>We're also excited to announce Leah Beuchley, who invented the <a href="http://web.media.mit.edu/%7Eleah/LilyPad/">Lilypad Arduino</a> kit, donated a kit to FrayedWire, which we will be using as Prize for Best Wearable Accessory! You'll have lots of chances between the workshops and the open
lab space to come up with something fabulous. Also, feel free to bring tools &
junque materials for the open lab space to use in your making.</p><div class="gmail_quote"><font size="2"><br><b>WORKSHOPS</b></font><br><h2><font><font size="2">11:00-12:30<span style="color: rgb(153, 51, 0);"> <span style="color: rgb(153, 0, 0);">Basic
