ABOUT ME
I am Yasemin, a computational artist-researcher and an Associate Lecturer at the Creative Computing Institute at University of the Arts London.  

I have a background in Computer Engineering and an MSc in Creative Computing. In my practice, I explore social and political aspects of coding through interactive, critical software and installation work.

I have experience with various programming paradigms and languages, exploring their intersections with the arts and humanities. 

I primarily use creative coding, digital fabrication, game engines, and microcontrollers in my projects.

2 ANTUHSA
 

 Antuhsa means ‘human being’ in Hittite. Inspired by the visual aspect of the cuneiform script, I wanted to create a work emphasizing human connection through language. We do not think twice about language in our daily lives but it is unique to us and connects us to each other as well as to our origins. I wanted the installation to designate the complicated structures of language and how deeply it is interwoven into our cultures and identities.
