“It takes a village to raise a child…” is a phrase that resonates with Tagtiv8. To us, it’s all about family, friends and community. We surround ourselves with like-minded people, who blend support with provocation. At the end of last year, we met members of the team from Sports Paths<\/a> in Athens<\/a>. Since then, the meetings have all been online, with messages on social media. An early conversation with Stratos Alexandropoulos about his work on the island of Tilos prompted a larger conversation between family, friends and community.<\/p>\n

Conversations with Family, Friends & Community<\/h3>\n

What follows is an abridged transcript from January…<\/p>\n

Stratos<\/strong>: Tilos is famed for its dragon. The island itself looks like a dragon’s head. However, the name of the island always makes me think of Armatilos.<\/p>\n

Tagtiv8<\/strong>: As in Armadillos? They are rather cute. They don’t live in Greece though. I think they live in South America. Do they live in Argentina, Flor?<\/p>\n

Flor, HEI School, San Rafael<\/strong>: Just in the north of the country. Paraguay is more famous for their armadillos.<\/p>\n

Tagtiv8<\/strong>: We need a new character to join Tagi and Tiva. How about we create a new one – an armadillo. What do you think, Buzz?<\/p>\n

Buzz<\/strong>: Sounds like a great idea to me. I’ll get some sketches to you…<\/p>\n

\"\"\"Prelim<\/p>\n

Conversations with Family, Friends & Community Continued<\/h3>\n

What follows is an abridged transcript from early February…<\/p>\n

Stratos<\/strong>: I’m really liking the look of the little guy. He even has the same eyebrows as Tagi. Now we need a name for him.<\/p>\n

Tagtiv8<\/strong>: Well, we already have Tagi and Tiva. The obvious answer is 8 – TagTiv8! If he was French, we could call him, ‘Huit’. And as we all know, 8 on its side is the symbol for infinity – the number of ways you can play our games is infinite.<\/p>\n

Flor, HEI School, San Rafael<\/strong>: In Argentina, he would be called ‘Ocho’.<\/p>\n

Stratos<\/strong>: Here in Greece, he would be called ‘Octo’ – ‘O\u03ba\u03c4\u03ce’.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tagtiv8<\/strong>: In that case, he can be called ‘8’ no matter which country he’s in.<\/p>\n

Buzz<\/strong>: I love the idea! Let’s see what ‘8’ will look like now.<\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

What follows is an abridged transcript from mid February…<\/p>\n

Stratos<\/strong>: He looks so good. He’s even giving a High 4 instead of a High 5.<\/p>\n

Tagtiv8<\/strong>: Well, 4 + 4 = 8 and 2 x 4 = 8.<\/p>\n

Flor, HEI School, San Rafael<\/strong>: He’ll need number tags on his belt. You could go for 3 and 5 but they’d both be yellow.<\/p>\n

Tagtiv8<\/strong>: Let’s go for a red 24 divided by a yellow 3!<\/p>\n

Buzz<\/strong>: Now, let’s see how ‘8’ will get on with his friends, family and community. Let’s see how this rolls out…<\/p>\n

Thank you to everyone involved in this creative process – we couldn’t have done it without you. It’s all about family, friends and community…<\/p>\n
