Experimental reenactment of works by Pantelis Xagoraris, simultaneously in physical and virtual space, through the multiuser platform @postasis. January 2020, New Library of ASFA. Presented as part of the 5th Multiplier Event of the Erasmus+ program @postasis: Virtual Artistic Laboratory. The experimental action and exhibition were developed in collaboration with Stamatis Schizakis, Curator of New Media and Photography at the National Museum of Contemporary Art Athens (EMST), Zafos Xagoraris, professor at ASFA, and Manthos Santorineos, professor at ASFA and scientific coordinator of the program. The relevant ebook can be found at the online link http://apostasis.eu/EDUCATIONAL-MATERIALS.
The project is developed in collaboration with Manthos Santorineos. It utilizes the space of the total land area of the Earth, as recorded through satellite scanning, and through Geolocated Augmented Reality, it explores ways to shape the earthly expanse as an exhibition space. Experimental actions have been developed at the following locations: Tinos, Festival Koinono, 2017 (Latitude: 37°36'6.55"N, Longitude: 25°13'51.79"E), Belgrade, International Conference STRAND Going Digital, 2018 (Latitude 44°48'59.77"N, Longitude 20°27'16.24"E), China, Ocean Flower Island, Exhibition "Thesis-Antithesis-Synthesis – in the Belt of Change", as part of the exhibition "The Tides of the Century", 2020 (Latitude: 19°39'5.0034"N, Longitude: 19°39'5.0034"E).
