Course Content
The theme of this course is to develop the perception and the visual experience of the students through making a videographic iconography of Ankara. supposedly the actual city in which they live. There will be a collective exercise of video-action. oriented towards the re-constitution of this urban iconography. which we believe is also part of the generalized popular imagination and televisual experience. Ankara would probably be the first step to such a project. which can be formally expanded to other urban spaces. since it is a newly established. republican city with rich symbolic and iconographic spatio-temporal details.
