To put an end to the rumors: "The non- corporate approach to making art"

Psychejunk(C)2004 A.P. Kouroumalis & Helen Tzoutis is a multimedia company founded by Apostolos (Toly) Kouroumalis(operator), A.K.A. : Junkman A.K.A : A.K., Junkman, Dementia 13
and Helen Tzoutis A.K.A: Psychelicious, set up to promote it's artists work and those they've worked with.

Psychejunk has had the pleasure of working with some top names in the biz, including renowned make-up artist Patricia Murray who recently worked on "Taken" by Steven Spielberg ("Streaks In The Mirror"), and spent some time in the desert at the Burning Man festival with Death Metal singer Mike DiSalvo from Cryptopsy (live sound on Monolethea). Eric Heroux! We've also had the pleasure of working with recording artists such as Oroboros from New Orleans, a band spearheaded by photographer Nicholas Syracuse; and we have proudly (Junkman boasts) performed with scream queen Brinke Stevens in her 100th film, a short film by Vince D'Amato entitled Heads Are Gonna Roll.

Psychejunk has screened short films at the New York Underground Film Festival (Lil? Star Duster ??1996); the 2003 Chicago Underground Film Festival (Monolethea ?? 2002don`t have the pamphlet), and at venues in Vancouver, Germany, and Montreal. We reverberate in film circles, but we haven't been too poorly received in the Poetry and Fine Art milieus either. Our film aesthetic tends towards the ephemeral, with solid background elements of painting and still visual media. We are also the proud recipient of Kodak awards.

I worked in film for five years on the west coast was in a smash and grab and was drugged at a club, ended up in the hospital. I make art house films - Toly A.K. I keep the burnin, along with the few friends on this thin raft- one cries a river-the other burns of fire
