ABOUT ME
I am Yasemin and  I recently completed an MSc in Creative Computing at the University of the Arts London.  

I’m a computational arts practitioner. I like to explore our complicated relationship with technology, take inspiration from history, ancient artefacts and cultures. I primarily use creative coding, digital fabrication, game engines, and microcontrollers in my projects.

I have also previously worked in exhibition planning as an Assistant Creative Director. More information can be found on our exhibition website

Creatures of the Wood Wide Web
in collaboration with Adina Nicola, Astryd Park, Hannah Petter

Creatures of the Wood Wide Web draws inspiration from the interconnectedness observed in nature, such as the communication networks between trees and fungi, and the multi-sensory interactions of octopuses, to foster a vision of human connections that transcend language for more harmonious interactions within an urban setting. We aim to broaden participants' perspectives, making them realise their roles not just as inhabitants of the universe but as co-creators, responsible for nurturing every being with care, thereby extending the installation's principles into everyday life and beyond the confines of the projected imagery.
