WELLBEING: Digital wellbeing In the posthuman era: a critical approach
The WELLBEING project explores the concept of digital wellbeing in a rapidly digitalizing society, where technology extends human capabilities. It seeks to address the fragmented understanding of digital wellbeing across disciplines by fostering a unified perspective. By combining posthumanist philosophy with requirements engineering, the project aims to integrate wellbeing into digital system development, contributing to a practical philosophy for our digital age. This synergy is intended to improve system design by ensuring that digital wellbeing is a core consideration in the creation of technologies that shape contemporary life.
Bodynet Khoros
BODYNET-KHORÓS is a transdisciplinary project focused on digital and physical artistic experimentation to reinvent the body and human relations for sustainable, pluralistic living. Grounded in embodied cognition theories, the project addresses the challenges of a media culture that often limits movement and multisensory experiences. It aims to redesign physical and digital media to enable full-body interaction and collective practices, fostering critical awareness and creative reappropriation of new media and space.

WebDance and OpenDance projects
The WebDANCE project was a European pilot study that explored the development of a web-based learning environment for traditional dances, demonstrating that a shared conceptualization schema could document various European dances. Building on WebDANCE, the OpenDANCE project aimed to enhance this environment by increasing functionality and interactivity, expanding the range of traditional dance resources, growing the user community, and further evaluating e-learning tools in multicultural dance education.
Graphic Novel 1821
The goal of the project is the creation of a graphic novel inspired by the Greek Revolution. Its timeline will cover the entire period of the Greek Revolution, up until the early years of the arrival of the Bavarian king Otto. It is a volume of more than 600 pages, with black-and-white illustrations. The largest comic work in Greece to date combines systematic scientific, historical research with artistic representation, resulting in an innovative reading experience for its subject matter.
