John Stathatos: Chrysoula Fatseas working on the Fatseas Archive, July 2006

After cleaning, the negative plate is given a serial number and all necessary details, including an estimate of its condition on a scale of 0-4, are meticulously entered in the record book. The plate is then placed in an individual, acid-free four-fold envelope and stored. Later this summer it will be evaluated and checked again, scanned and digitised, and its subject researched before it acquires a permanent record in the photographic archive database.

A Flag for Kythera. Proposal 2. Proposal utilising one of (wo)mankind's most ancient, primal and powerful symbols.

This symbol is based on the original symbol for Aphrodite - Venus (Venus is the Romanised version of Kythera's Aphrodite).

The symbol for Venus, based on the even older Egyptian symbol of the ankh, is that which is now being used in the Western World for the symbol of womanhood, ie, a cross placed on a circle.

The symbol for womanhood, in its current form, would not be an appropriate symbol on which to base a flag for Kythera.

Evacuating an elderly wheelchair-bound villager,

Kythera airport was unusually crowded this morning, with a couple of helicopters including a large Chinook on the tarmac, as well as a four-engined army transport plane which had flown in extra firemen and civil defence personnel. Mitata was also crawling with television crews and their satellite broadcast equipment; the Kythera earthquake, despite the merciful absence of victims, has had a starring role in the Greek media today.
