This is the website of Nikos Voyiatzis. Ι am a media designer, artist, educator and archivist who works around digital archives, digital cultural heritage, digital- net art and educational design. I have been working as a freelance archivist and educator for Onassis Cultural Center, Onassis Library, many public schools in Greece, Deste Foundation, Athens College. As a project associate for Ars electronica AI Lab, and as collaborator of the Institute of Networked Cultures. I am also a specialist in preservation and documentation of audiovisual, digital and online cultural heritage and deliver talks, essays, workshops around these topics. I have been a co editor of the zine of Pervasive Labour Union, a co reviewer for the Journal of Critical library and information studies and an ocassional author with a focus on politics of lists and classification. Currently I work as a documentation specialist for Hellenic Broadcasting Corp Archive, in the department of Digitisation, Conservation and Documentation. In my practise I am exploring information organisation in its aesthetic and political dimensions, paricularly in the context of the web, online archives and the juxtaposition of audience and archivist.-> nikos at gmail.com
