Beyond the inventive activity in magnetism, I quote below a brief curriculum vitae for my special and general activity:

It includes inventions and constructions in guitars and strings.The history of the guitar includes numerous forms of the body of the guitar, the string quality and quantity and the tuning of the instrument in different ranges. This revival of the many different forms constitutes the "Kertsopoulos Aesthetics" ...These guitars possess antique sounds, sounds with an ancient charm. Amalia Ramirez 7 Feb. 2009
Composer and professor of the guitar, he specializes in invention and construction of guitars and strings and is a researcher and inventor of theoretic models based on scientific applications. He has found international acclaim on his publishing (DAS MUSIKINSTRUMENT--Frankfurt 1983, Heft 9/ September 1984, in German and English-"The Physics of the Guitar") and gave an international presentation of "the Guitar's mathematic model and Geometric progression" (1983, International Music Messe-Frankfurt and at the College of Furniture-London) and gave seminars to respected luthiers and guitarists of England invited by GUITAR magazine of George Clinton...from now on after this presentation and know-how given by mr. Kertsopoulos, better guitars will be constructed throughout the world. I can personally assure you of this fact because now we have no more secrets in construction. His work is so unique in its scientific approach but also so full of traditional truths, it includes everything...Jose Ramirez (at the press conference given by Y.Kertsopoulos at the Music Messe in Frankfurt-1983). In 1972 won the first prize at the International Guitar Competition of Milan and in 1975 obtained his soloist diploma in guitar (First prize, National Conservatory of Athens under Dimitri Fampas). He has given concerts in Europe, U.S.A. and Canada and played with orchestras (New York chamber orchestra-U.S.A. 1978) at the time he lived in Canada and was professor of guitar at two universities (Concordia-Montreal 1976-81, State University of New York-Plattsburg 1978-81). In 1994, he presented his "pedal guitars" where each one out of ten different constructions depending on the constructional design gave in their own specific manner enhancement to the guitar's sound in a similar manner the pedals of the piano do for the pianist. Also, in 1994 he presented the "Kertsopoulos Aesthetics", involving hundreds of different guitar "aesthetic" sounds which can be produced from a guitar varying accordingly in timbre, volume, character and tuning pitch. This is achieved through his invention and construction of strings made of new to the guitar acoustic materials. His metallonylon and metallonymatic trebles for Baroque-Renaissance or modern music are a reality in the guitar world and many guitarists play with these for their unique timbre, sonority, volume and special interpretational capabilities. All tunings are now possible from --5 to the 12th fret with the "Kertsopoulos Aesthetics" with especially designed strings of numerous combinations in color and timbre for each tuning chosen. (Excerpt from the CD entitled "Kertsopoulos Aesthetics" Produced by Plinthos 99).
Smaro Gregoriadou, an internationally acclaimed soloist guitarist, composer is the official international artistic representative in concerts and recordings of the "Kertsopoulos Aesthetics". Many internationally acclaimed guitarists-professors have studied and obtained their diplomas under the teaching of Y.Kertsopoulos among them: S.Gregoriadou, D.Blazaki, M.Spanggaard, P.Deligiannis, A.Mazi, K.Stavridis, E.Kapetanaki, E.Theofanous, E.Sfikas, K.Zarkadoulas, M.Bafounis, M.Sakellaraki, N.Kakavelakis, A.Karabetsos...
...Being a holder of different discoveries in the theoretic and practical constructional field of the guitar and acoustics in general, Y.Kertsopoulos constructs instruments of an unmatched (by today's standards) acoustic performance in quality and sustain, in concert hall conditions (DAS MUSIKINSTRUMENT-Frankfurt 1983, Heft9/September 1984).
The great master Jose Ramirez wrote the following dedication letter to Y.Kertsopoulos for his work on the "Mathematic model and geometric progression of the guitar-The Physics of the Guitar":
"The work realized by mr. Kertsopoulos on the mathematical configurations of the guitar's outline deserves all my respect and admiration not only from its scientific approach but also from the fact that it is a serious study enlightening all these delicate details found on the form of the instrument not defined sufficiently by tradition. With my congratulations, signed Jose Ramirez, April, 8, 1983".
