Let’s talk about… rebetiko
Panagiotis and Spyros, with their love for music and the streets of Thessaloniki, the city of their university years, as their common denominator, begin their journey into the music genre of rebetiko. The world gets to know them better as their voice and melody color their stroll. 1. How did you meet? And which was […]
TEDxAUTH is always a good idea
A movie title, stuck in my mind uninvited. I am unable to define its genre, I am puzzled about choosing the right protagonists for it and I feel almost scared about choosing its set. I can, however, tell you the story, color the narrative with my own words, until the script takes shape and I […]
Between stops
On a ride with public transport in a foreign country enjoying the reality I lived in those few days, I started observing the world around me and making assumptions about where all of this is heading, where it came from. My goal is to create a game in my mind to spend my time pleasantly […]
“Normal people”
Like ordinary people, Conell and Marianne taught us what love really means and how one learns to truly experience it, away from toxicity and pettiness. A love that begins in adolescence and whether or not it follows you into your later adult life, you know that it will always find a place to rest within […]
What is the purpose of my existence?
The human brain processes and filters more than 70,000 thoughts in a day, including memories, future plans, emotions, stress and much more.

Walking around with “uncomfortable” feelings
I am starting to notice, as I get older, that us humans tend to push away, or rather try to completely erase, emotions that are not so positive. Anger, pain, sorrow, fear, despair, chaos. We embrace and seek only the feelings that bring us euphoria and security, both physically as well as in our soul. And […]

What does theater mean to you? (they laugh simultaneously) Ilias: My favorite kind of questions. What is theater? What is theater for you, Vasilis? Vasilis: Can you repeat the question please? I: Yes, I’m buying time so I can think. For me theater is something different depending on the moment you are in life. V: I like theater. I […]
+1 chromosome… benefit and not a dissadvantage
Living in a world of image and appearance, we have an absurd demand from others – but also from ourselves – to be perfect in everything we do. Anyone who deviates from this so-called “perfection” and excellence, is automatically excluded from social events. What we forget though, is that none of us is truly “perfect” […]
Artemisia Gentileschi: A feminine Baroque touch
History is full of women’s cries drowned out… We do not forget, after all, all those women – even if we do not know who or precisely how many they were – whose achievements or skills have been forgotten, buried by the haughty gaze of patriarchy over the centuries. And probably there are so many […]
On Fridays we Love Issue 9: Antinoos Almpanis
Life is a beautiful gift…What matters is what you want out of life (3) the actor declares with a smile. Antinoos Almpanis reintroduced himself through the successful show of Christoforos Papakaliatis, MAESTRO. Through this show we were given the opportunity to remember how we first met him in Agria Paidia, Mou leipeis, Dyo Meres Mono, Nisos, but also in his […]
