Sinclair’s ZX81 computer (1KB on-board memory , with a 64K memory expansion module inserted at the back) – my first PC – that I started using from 1983 for automation of work in our experimental pancreas and islet transplantation research project – for creating (coding) and using the entire suit of apps, needed for the raw data processing and the (statistical and pharmacokinetic) analysis.
The hardware set-up included a TV (B/W) as monitor, (mono audio) tape recorder for data storage (apps), and a small thermal printer.

Documentary “The Jews of Corfu” – a film by Mirjan Gjergjevica & Maria Boua
The Jews of Corfu – Review
The Jews of Corfu – a population group that was an important part of the island, contributed to the formation of its history. But the tragic events that befell them were added to the black page of human history. The film The Jews of Corfu (2021) is a powerful documentary by Mirjan Gjergjevica (direction, cinematography, editing, production) & Maria Boua (script, music, sound, production) with narration by Yannis Andriotis and stories told by Zaharias Matathias • Linos Sousis • Nina Vital. Powerful — both visually and the sound — filmed in an innovative way, combining ambient sound and stories told outdoors with the Mediterranean background, in public spaces, the streets, and Corfu synagogue – with an excellent film score – that is especially impressive how it manages to accompany the viewer in scenes of holocaust atrocities. The history of the Corfiot Jews – a mixture of Pugliese (from south Italy) and Romaniote (from Greece) is told in vivid detail from the Middle Ages to today. I watched this fast paced film twice, last premiere weekend, to fully grasp the whole picture ~ Michel van der Burg – Monday , March 14, 2022 (2).
