end of the year updates

Hello Friends !

2011 ☞ ☯ ☮ ✌ ♡ ☞ 2012

What a busy year so much has happened! I hope this year has treated you well, and I hope next year brings more good things your way!

Now that the year is reaching its end I wanted to say "Hello !" and also share with you some things that I have been up to over the past 12 months.

starting with the future and working backward

My artwork Wave was just featured in an exhibition titled "you only live twice" was held at the Kunsthalle New in Chicago

I recently went to Miami for the 10th edition of Art Basel Miami and created a new artwork for the exhibit LikeArtBasel , a brief recap of the show is available on the American Institute of Graphic Arts Blog Design Envy as well as Art-Agenda. The exhibit was featured on the "to do" list for The New York Times , Art Fag City and Art-info.com.

While in Miami I also participated in BYOB Miami , one of several Bring Your Own Beamer exhibitions I have participated in over the last year including BYOB Denver which I helped organize and BYOB Amsterdam while in Europe over the summer. Also while in Berlin over the summer I curated and organized an art exhibit in an internet cafe called "Becoming Not Being" .

I started a Masters program of Fine Art & Digital Media in September at the University of California at Santa Barbara which has me working closely with the Media Arts & Technology department.

My blog Greek New Media Shit , as well as two other artworks, The Dynamics of Non-Being and Perpetual Threshold , have been accepted into the Rhizome ArtBase, an affiliate of the New Museum in New York. This curated archive of new media art is the most comprehensive database of such works and I am proud to have been involved.

Greek New Media Shit has also been the subject of an essay written by Brian Droitcour on Rhizome.org .

In April I was accepted into the Computers Club Drawing Society, you can see the drawings I've done on my CCDS profile. Also, my involvement in CCDS was mentioned in an interesting article on Artinfo that I would suggest checking out.

Early in 2011 I was included in the Post Internet Survival Guide a fantastic publication initiated by Katja Novitskova and published by Revolver Publishing

I was also interviewed by 303 Magazine early in 2011, you can read the interview here if you missed it.

In total I was involved in 17 exhibitions in 2011 across 11 cities in 3 countries, you can find a full list near the bottom of this page with links to documentation of them.
