The workshop is led by artist Metehan Törer, who contributes to the Souvenirs of the Future with his ceramic installation Those Born to Earth and creates ceramic figures using an autobiographical narrative style. Focusing on questions like "What is our favorite object? Why do we feel the need to collect and display certain objects?" the workshop offers participants a chance to view objects from different perspectives and explore new forms using polymer clay under the guidance of the artist.

In a bid to review the International System of Units (SI), the International Bureau of Weights and Measures gathered at the 26th General Conference on Weights and Measures on November 16, 2018. Sixty member states have voted for changing four out of seven basic units of measurement. The kilogram is among the modified.
