I’m Gennadios Arvanitis, an artist, performer, and audio electronics technician based in Athens. I repair audio equipment, do circuit bending, and modify electronic instruments—turning everyday electronics into tools for sound experimentation and sound-driven performances. Through my solo project Degear0001, I explore the relationship between sound and circuitry, creating compositions for live shows, video work, and other creative projects. Alongside my hands-on technical work (studio equipment, synthesizer, guitar pedal etc repair, and sound system setup), I also record and produce music, both for my solo project and as a freelancer.

    I WILL FIX UR STUFF - Degear0001

    A Promotional video I made for my audio repair project ‘Degear’s Laboratory’.
    Video, composition, mix/master, concept etc all done by me.
    The music was recorded and mixed live on Eurorack modular system, and edited in length afterwards to fit the social media format.
    The video was recorded using an old MiniDV camera, connected to a tv screen, which then was recorded using an iphone.
