The funding situation [in Greece]: it depends on the what kind of art are we talking about. Are we talking about cinema? Are we talking about theater? Are we talking about visual arts? It varies, it is not the same thing.

They [The EC film funding institutions] want you to make profitable films. You will not get funding that much any more, especially on the EC level. You get something else: you get a kind of a credit and when you make profit with the film you have to pay back your credit, if you do not make profit it turned out to be a funding system. On the national scale, [in Austria] you cannot receive funds but you have to work as a film company. I could not walk up there as a single filmer and say: could i get some money from you - i have to be a fílm company and also, i have to proove that i shot five films already, three to five already.

There are some well known artists [in Greece] who are able to get funding but most of the people i know are struggling.

I think i am not a typical documentary filmer. I am more an experimental art filmer. So, i think if i would talk to classical documentary specialists they would probably deny my films as being documentary because i also experiment a lot with VJing methods. I like layers, i like blends a lot and i like fast rhythms and the interchange of slow rhythms with fast rhythms. So, VJing is interesting for me as a formal method but i am interested in the narrative also. So, i have an experimental way of editing, i think. I use layers a lot and i am playing at the edge between pure documentary and visual interpretation although i try to pay full respect to - you know - what people tell me and not interpret them as … the way i look at it. I am trying to keep out of this. But i am trying to create some visual landscape for them enhancing what they have given to me. So, this is quite an experimental way of editing, i think. And it could mean that for seconds or minutes you will not see an interview but you see layers of visual worlds.

With the documentary - i did it at the same time which was very hectic. I tried to shoot … i mean i was shooting for work and then i was shooting for my own documentary. So, that was really stressful. Other than that, i go through phases but if i have to, if i am inspired and i have to do something i just work around the clock,  i don’t care.

I think it is only full respect to ask do you want to be shot. That is one thing and the other is: you miss that communication and this communication makes a big difference.

[In my video art pieces] i do not use any speech but i use poetry that i write ,so it is basically visual poetry - that is how you describe it.
