Architect Andreas Angelidakis presents his most recent projects up to the architectural design of the 2nd Athens Biennale 2009, focusing on the core of his practice and namely on the architecture of presentation and communication.

For the last ten years Andreas Angelidakis has been extensively involved with architecture as means of communication and presentation. Functioning equally as an exhibition designer and exhibitor, his creations span from the virtual/internet to the real space, investigating as such all aspects of the behaviour of the contemporary art exhibition visitor.

Error Code and Heracles present a programme dedicated to music through the use of children's toys and unfold the possibilities they hold. The event is part of the exhibition "How Many Angels can Dance on the Head of a Pin?", curated by Christopher Marinos.

What do children look for in their toys? Even if this process often leads to the total destruction of toys, sometimes something surprising and magical comes up: a doll that talks backwards, a sound that we never heard before, a shine that all of a sudden lights up the space. At this precies moment, abuse (of the toy in this case) redefines its traits.

We will produce sound out of gameboys, casio, old toys long forgotten in the attic or scattered in the open air market and their remains will be reconstructed and re-programmed for the creation of various compositions and improvisations.
