Slide shows
From VOCWiki
If you want to give a slideshow at any time, just sign up below, or contact the PR-exec (Richard So). Slideshows are held at Wednesdays at 7pm in the VOC clubroom, unless otherwise noted. We can now project either 35 mm slides or digital images, although the latter are still vastly lower resolution, due mostly to projection technology. Please indicate your medium when signing up.
Sign up below. If you have a preferred date that's already taken, you can sign up for it anyway, and we can try to shuffle, as well as gauge an appropriate frequency.

Schedule
School is almost over. Got outside and play some Ultimate instead.
History
In the spring term of 2004, the VOC slideshows were moved from lunchtime to Wednesday evenings in the SUB. Turnouts improved greatly, and this format was continued in the autumn 2004. All slide shows are at 7pm at the VOC Clubroom unless otherwise noted.
In the autumn of 2005 the club acquired a digital projector to complement our 35mm projector.
2005-2006: Slide shows this year were spread out more evenly than last year. It started with having only one per month, tentatively the third Wednesday at 19:00 (7 p.m.) in the VOC clubroom unless otherwise noted.
