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.

Descent is an Augmented Reality installation questioning technology, power, dependency, and the cost of innovation. It invites the viewer to reflect on how our bodies and minds are intertwined with technology and whether the enhancements of our capabilities through technology are worth it.
