AVARTS Live Game Hub is an action aiming to bring together new game designers and creators and showcase their ideas to the public. It is organized by teachers of the Department of Audio and Visual Arts with a coordinating core of Vassilis Komianos, Varvara Garnelis, and Emmanuel Rovithis, and is staffed by students who are actively involved in creating games.

The second Audiovisual Arts Festival took place in May 2008. The main thematic drive of the festival was the “Imaginary Worlds” as a model of gnoseological, aesthetic and metaphysical approach, like those formed through the new systems of record and revisualisation of the apprehensible world. The Festival’s program was rich in presentations and exhibitions of student works: Photography, Color - Drawing, Video Art - Installation, Montage - Experimental Multimedia and Music - Sound Editing. The program included as well an open workshop to the students on 3D Animation by Leonidas Koufalis and live presentations by guest artists Stathis Chrisidis and Lambros Pygoudis. Important component of the festival was the organization of the 2-day Symposium “Imaginary Worlds-Alternative Readings of Reality” in which a special emphasis was given to the presentations of new technologies in relation to the modern educational need in the sector of audiovisual media, as well as their application possibility in the production of interpretation models and reconstruction of reality. Among other speakers in the symposium were Manos Danezis, Manthos Santorinaios, Ilias Marmaras, Kostas Yiatilis MacFarlane and Li Jin.
