CRY ME A RIVER OF CROCODILE TEARS: FLAVA TIBER

“[…] hunc inter fluvio Tiberinus amoeno verticibus rapidis et multa flavus harena in mare prorumpit […]” Virgil. What remains of the mythology of the blonde Tiber, strictly linked as it is to the birth of Rome and over 2000 years of history, as its waters dwindle season after season? The  epochal changes of waters in the twenty-first century speak of a revolutionary upheaval that

ACCURSED

  What is in a curse? And who are the accursed? The artist, Lanfranco Aceti, has created a performance titled Accursed and curated by Areti Leopolou that addresses the theme of the Thessaloniki Biennale, Imagined Homes, by bringing the privacy of the home into the public space.

The New LEA Moving On

Ozden and I often joke about the above snippet of video from Doctor Who, that represents 'The Editor in Chief.' Although Ozden and I have not reached 'world domination' yet, we continue to work on the Leonardo Electronic Almanac (LEA) ensuring its transformation into an international publication and research hub. Six months ago we completed the transfer from the old system to the new Wordpress

MY ABSTRACTS AND ARTICLES…

I am now finally able to put in order all of my abstracts and articles. I have decided to start with the abstracts of papers published over the years. It will be a job that will take several months since most papers need reviewing and updating. Something to look forward to with the hope of achieving both a digital archive of activities that took place over the

ONCE MORE FROM THE BEGINNING

A new website signs another beginning for something new. There have been several websites, blogs and projects in my past that have underpinned research and aesthetic developments. Each website was focused on one particular aspect: artworks, writings, academic endeavors... This new website is conceived as an archive for both past works and projects in development. It should allow the viewer to quickly search and identify
