Hi there,
Thanks for taking the time to stop by and dropping an eye.
I'll hopefully have something to showcase here pretty soon so please pop back again later.
BIOI was born on the 8th of March 1970 in Bulawayo Zimbabwe (Africa).
In August of '83 my family and I moved to Patras Greece where we currently live.
My first taste of computer graphics came at the age of 15 with my first computer, an Amstrad664. Following that came An Amiga500, an A3000 on to the PC.
(Can you imagine what it's like to do 3d on a 20MHz machine with 6Mb?).

In late 1991 I began my career in television as a computer artist, which I continue to this day.
Over the years though computer graphics where not my only interest in the field of television,
I taught myself master control, camera work and a little directing. This I achieved by tagging along with the crews,
closely watching other professionals at work and a lot of reading in my spare time.
