Borboudakis has explored much mythology and antique philosophy, but also technology and the natural sciences. He wrote a percussion concerto for Peter Sadlo, a work dealing with the 'very beginnings': Archégonon. For the ensemble spectral he completed a string quartet on the number four, Tetraktýs, and a sextet on alloys, Krámata. In the Photonic constructions he reasons, along with Ensemble Modern, on the theory of light, and whether it is composed of particles or waves. As for the Heraclitusean view of a stream ever in motion, this produced the Meta-soundscapes, Andere oder Zwischen-Landschaften: a greeting to the 'ars nova ensemble' Nuremberg and their founder Werner Heider on the occasion of their jubilee.
