About

Lifelong engineer whose game shows were Act III of VII.

A broadcast career carried out in public, with an engineering practice running continuously underneath it — from vacuum-tube transmitters to sovereign multi-agent AI platforms. Two intertwined careers, one underlying discipline: building systems that compound.

The Narrative Arc

Seven Acts

  1. I
    1968 – 1986

    Formation

    Born into Greek broadcasting. Raised in ERT studios from the black-and-white era. Playing the four-source vision mixer of Studio 3 as a child. Building FM transmitters with vacuum tubes. Published Z80 and 6502 CPU architecture at age 14 in Greek electronics press. BYTE, Popular Electronics, Elektor, 2600 from age 12. The polymathic seed.

  2. II
    1987 – 1992

    Hard News

    Greek Radio 2nd Programme. Election producer broadcast across all five programs. ET2 News anchor. Gulf War live translation of Clinton on national television. Bosnia war correspondent — two and a half months in the combat zone. BBC Greek Service offer rejected at twenty — chose Greece. The journalist forged in fire.

  3. III
    1992 – 1995

    The Builder

    Founding co-presenter of Καλημέρα Ελλάδα. CSR pioneer at ANT1 before the term existed. World’s first broadcast-to-internet audio distribution (1993–94) via the ΔΗΜΟΚΡΙΤΟΣ research node — a decade before podcasting was named. Co-founder of Acropolis.net, Greece’s first ISP. EU Parliament correspondent. Building while presenting.

  4. IV
    1995 – 2007

    The Showman

    Πες τα Μίλτο, Βρες τη Φράση, Bar, Russian Roulette, Identity. Three decades of engineering underneath the live broadcasts. Never stopped building.

  5. V
    2002 – 2012

    The Crucible

    280M drachmas lost to fraud. A year of silence. Severe depression. Won the felony court case — unbendable determination. The courtroom taught: ΛΟΓΟΣ = ΝΟΜΟΣ — words ARE code. MasterChef Production Director. Silicon Valley. ERT shutdown killed the broadcast.

  6. VI
    2022 – 2025

    The Manifesto

    Hack U Episode Zero — two months before ChatGPT was public. Weekenders proved the appetite across every demographic. The tools are ready.

  7. VII
    2025 – now

    The Spaceship
