A Digital Forest

Pera Adult

  • January 10, 2025 / 19:00

Are you ready to create your forest with artificial intelligence inspired by plants? In this workshop, participants first introduce the plants, trees and flowers growing in the coordinates they choose in the world to artificial intelligence, and then design a fantastic forest fueled by their imagination. These visuals, which will be easily created on a computer or phone using AI-supported drawing and painting applications, come together according to the x-y coordinates determined by each participant from the beginning and form a collective forest map. Thus, everyone's original creation becomes part of a whole, while the vegetation gains brand new identities. Each design is printed out in the same size, creating a collective landscape.

Instructor: OyunMu
Capacity: 15 people
Duration: 90 minutes
Fee per workshop: 400 TL

The event will take place at the Pera Museum. 

About OyunMu
Founded by architect Merih Bengisu Yiğit, OyunMu is a collective focused on creating game-based projects with a team of ten people from different disciplines. Organizing workshops, interviews and publications for both adults and children, OyunMu interprets games from the perspective of art, architecture and communication. The concept of ‘play’ is always at the center of their projects, which they carry out within the scope of a sustainable development plan. The purpose behind the OyunMu collective's focus on games is to highlight the potential of games to play a formative role in cultural practices and trigger social change, while also focusing on their educational, creative, entertaining, relaxing and socializing possibilities.

The Battle of Varna

The Battle of Varna

Over the years of 1864 through 1876, Stanisław Chlebowski served Sultan Abdülaziz in Istanbul as his court painter. As it was, Abdülaziz disposed of considerable artistic talents of his own, and he actively involved himself in Chlebowski’s creative process, suggesting ideas for compositions –such as ballistic pieces praising the victories of Turkish arms. 

Return from Vienna

Return from Vienna

Józef Brandt harboured a fascination for the history of 17th century Poland, and his favourite themes included ballistic scenes and genre scenes before and after the battle proper –all and sundry marches, returns, supply trains, billets and encampments, patrols, and similar motifs illustrating the drudgery of warfare outside of its culminating moments.
