Prior to the workshop led by clinical psychologist and expressive art therapist Suzi Amado, participants tour the On the Spot: Panoramic Gaze on Istanbul, a History with a guide. In the workshop, participants learn an approach to "panoramically look within themselves" and explore their inner worlds as if they are wandering in a city that arouses their curiosity or excitement. After discussing features related to mindfulness, participants then learn mindfulness and meditation practices that they can use in their daily lives.

Berggren acquires the techniques of photography in Berlin and holds different jobs in various European cities before arriving in İstanbul. Initially en route to Marseille, he disembarks from his ship in 1866 and settles in İstanbul, where he is to spend the rest of his life.
Following the opening of his studio, “El Chark Societe Photographic,” on Beyoğlu’s Postacılar Caddesi in 1857, the Levantine-descent Pascal Sébah moves to yet another studio next to the Russian Embassy in 1860 with a Frenchman named A. Laroche, who, apart from having worked in Paris previously, is also quite familiar with photographic techniques.
He had imagined the court room as a big place. It wasn’t. It was about the size of his living room, with an elevation at one end, with a dais on it. The judges and the attorneys sat there. Below it was an old wooden rail, worn out in some places. That was his place. There was another seat for his lawyer. At the back, about 20 or 30 chairs were stowed out for the non-existent crowd.
