Yayın In search of a past memory: Istanbul and the politics of memory in Orhan Pamuk’s work(Ergon-Verlag, 2022) Kahraman, Hasan Bülent; Rentzsch, Julian; Kučera, PetrOrhan Pamuk was born in 1952, and his novels, especially The Black Book, The Museum of Innocence, and A Strangeness in My Mind depict a panorama of Istanbul of the years following his birth. In giving the reader the social, political, and physical picture of Istanbul of the post-1950 period, these novels provide a new politics of memory and even make the politics of memory the central element of all narratives. Taking memory as the central element in his “Istanbul novels”, Pamuk creates mnemonic scenes and images of the city and, with his new approach to the memory politics, tries to replace the “hot memory” in Turkey, which is the memory open to devastations, destructions, and radical changes, with a “cold memory”, that is, a more stable, static memory compiling all the traces of the past and changing very slowly in time. Thus, Pamuk is a path-breaking explicator of the concept of “memory”, writ large. In his books (particularly those published after his first novel Cevdet Bey and His Sons') Istanbul itself plays a pivotal role. Those peculiarities of the city are, for the writer, embedded in the events of the late 19th and early 20th century and in one significant concept, melancholia. To ground his arguments, Pamuk traces Istanbul through the writings of national and international writers. In this article, I argue that melancholia is used for the first time by Pamuk to analyze Istanbul, a point differentiating him from other writers who have written about the city; melancholia is also the concept helping Pamuk to ground his politics of memory. Pamuk’s writing about Istanbul, I argue, is in itself political and critical. The concept pair hot memory-cold memory, which 1 have developed, helps us to understand Pamuk’s political and critical endeavor in his works.Yayın Cybernetic philosophy, performativity, and new media aesthetics(Dokuz Eylül Üniversitesi Güzel Sanatlar Fakültesi, 2022-05-26) Hatipoğlu, ÖzümBy drawing upon philosophical repercussions of cybernetics, this article reformulates the notion of performativity in the context of new media aesthetics. It links performativity to new media aesthetics via the cybernetic notions of information processing and generating systems, recursive electronic and digital feedback loops, emergency, complexity, dynamism, and autonomously evolving systems. In doing so, I argue that the operational logic and infrastructure of new media technologies can only be understood from a performative perspective. The term performance basically refers here to the movement which governs the generation and transformation of systems by putting them into action. It is through this action that the various components and parts of a system relay and process information and produce complex interactive systems. As a result, this kind of complex interactivity leads to the emergence of new forms. It is in this way that these complex systems produce new codes, configurations, and constellations. Such a formulation constitutes my starting point to describe a hybrid framework that may eventually lead to a better understanding of the essential characteristics of new media technologies and aesthetics. The shift from single, discrete, and isolated mechanical artifacts to technological systems laid the foundations for a new kind of aesthetics, the aesthetics of information processing and generating systems. The study of the art object as a system or an environment rather than a single object is crucial to address the way in which the system itself might be conceived of as an aesthetic medium. I foreground my definition of new media in the notions of medium and mediation and discuss the aesthetic possibilities brought forth by the emergence and advancement of information and communication technologies. The method used in this article is literature review.Yayın Adorno’s aesthetic theory: aesthetic display of the empirical reality(Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi, 2022-03-30) Hatipoğlu, ÖzümTheodor Adorno’s Aesthetic Theory illuminates the basic question of the aesthetic claim to truth. Adorno’s text presents key philosophical questions about the nature of aesthetics. Through grounding Adorno’s aesthetic theory in Hegelian logic, this article explicates why and how the veracity of a modern artwork dwells in its claim to the truth of its own untruth. What is the relation between aesthetic truth and the objective truth of empirical reality? Can aesthetic truth disclose the truth of empirical reality? By relating negatively to what Adorno calls the empirical reality, modern artworks not only become identical to their nonidentity, but also present that which they are nonidentical with as their formative ground. If the truth of an object is mediated, aesthetic truth must disclose the degree of objectivity found in empirical reality. Consequently, aesthetic truth becomes for-itself a mediated truth, and aesthetic truth comes to reveal the mediatedness of empirical reality.Yayın Lacanian unconscious and new media aesthetics(Bursa Teknik Üniversitesi, 2023-06-20) Hatipoğlu, ÖzümContemporary biotechnologies provide an entryway into thinking about bodies and organisms not as natural and biological entities but as informational media, technological apparatuses, instrumental mediums, symbolic systems and coded means of communication, replacing the theories and practices concerning mimetic imitation of life and mechanical reproduction of nature with the semiotic, linguistic, and bioinformatic reproduction of bodies and organisms. This article examines postbiological articulation of bodies, desires, and sexualities at the site of the convergence between Lacanian psychoanalysis and new media aesthetics. It is at the interstices of the connections between information and communication technologies, modern biology, and structural linguistics that Jacques Lacan locates his psychoanalytic conception of the unconscious and desire. The notion of the unconscious as it is mapped by Lacan over structural linguistics’ intrinsic kinship with information and communication technologies enables him to examine desire and sexuality at the site of the convergence between linguistic-informational, biological, and psychoanalytic discourses. This bioinformatic revolution transforms the aesthetic stakes of everyday life by suggesting new ways of thinking about bodies, desires, and sexualities. By drawing on acoustic and visual remappings of the body, fragmented and hybrid bodies, digital desires and sexualities in new media artworks, I analyze the body in contemporary art as a biotechnological apparatus, symbolic system, and discursive and non-discursive mode of communication flowing among various media networks and systems.Yayın Rum Architects and their Domed Greek Orthodox Churches that marked the change in the physical features of Istanbul(Atatürk Üniversitesi, 2022-03-28) Şarlak, EvangeliaThe cosmopolitan characteristic of Istanbul, expresses itself clearly not only in the political, economic and social domains but also in that of architecture, the traces left by different cultures and creeds. With the Non-Muslim Regulation issued after the conquest of Istanbul, it is stated that Christian and Jewish communities can live their religious lives freely. While the architectural activities continue within the determined rules, the construction of the dome and the lead coating of the dome are prohibited within the framework of these rules. With the Tanzimat Edict of 1839, non-Muslim Ottomans were granted equal rights with Muslims, Concrete steps were taken with the 1856 Reform Edict . On this date, with the permission given for the construction of new churches and domes, domed churches began to be built in Istanbul.Yayın Stylistic analysis of the Holy Icons from Saint George Church in Yenikoy, Istanbul(Athens Institute for Education and Research (ATINER), 2024-04) Onurel, Ruhiye; Şarlak, EvangeliaThe main subject of the research is to analyse the multi-themed sacred proskynetarion icons in Yeniköy Ayios Yeoryios (St. George) Metochion Church, one of the three metochion churches of the Jerusalem Orthodox Patriarchate in Istanbul. Although it is known that the icons found in the metochion churches in Istanbul have not been studied before, the icons belonging to the church in Yeniköy from these structures were included in the research. Due to the limitations of the article, which prevented the evaluation of all the icons in the church, the research focused solely on the technical and stylistic features of the multi-themed proskynetarion icons. Proskynetarions, also known as the pilgrim icons, contain depictions of the Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem due to their characteristics. The presence of proskynetarions in this place is directly related to the fact that Yeniköy Ayios Yeoryios Church is a Metochion affiliated to the Jerusalem Patriarchate. Icons are accepted as important works of art in the frame of art history, as well as their liturgical role as manifestation and visual representations of the sacred. It is important to reveal such previously unpublished works, to evaluate them iconographically and to bring them to the art history literature with their semantic context. In the study, a brief historical overview of the status of the Jerusalem Orthodox Patriarchate and the relations between the two patriarchates is presented. At the same time, the location of the building, the architectural plan type, the periodical features in the exterior and interior decoration are mentioned.Yayın Preserving ecclesiastical cultural heritage of thrace: a needs analysis for digital recording in monasteries and temples(MDPI, 2025-02) Stamou, Aikaterini; Nassis, Fr Chrysostomos; Chrysafi, Eleni; Sylaiou, Stella; Kaya, Güldehen; Şarlak, Evangelia; Ribolov, Svet; Karavaltchev, Ventzislav; Constantinides, Argyris; Belk, Marios; Stylianidis, EfstratiosCultural heritage is a common good passed down as a legacy from previous to future generations. Its preservation is a strong commitment to humanity. The main motivation for this project is based on this understanding and arose from the need for the proper and scientifically documented recording of cultural heritage (CH), both movable and immovable monuments of ecclesiastical cultural treasures. Despite its significance, the systematic documentation of ecclesiastical heritage remains fragmented, lacking a standardized and scientifically driven approach. This research addresses this critical gap by developing a structured methodology for the recording, organization, and digital archiving of ecclesiastical CH monuments. This was accomplished by codifying the actual recording and documentation needs for the ecclesiastical cultural treasures, with the systematic study of the users’ needs. The study focused on the region of Thrace, encompassing areas of Greece, Turkey, and Bulgaria, where post-Byzantine ecclesiastical treasures are expected to be in abundance. Through the design and implementation of surveys and metadata collection, this project has the capacity to facilitate digital transformation across the interconnected fields of religion, arts, and CH. Stakeholders from diverse backgrounds, both within and outside the clergy community, including owners and end-users connected to ecclesiastical cultural treasures, were actively involved in the process. The COVID-19 pandemic underscored the vital role of building distance communication channels and promoting digital transformation across the interconnected fields of religion and cultural heritage. Our emphasis was to actively engage stakeholders from diverse backgrounds to create a practical, user-friendly documentation tool that meets their actual needs.Yayın A digital platform for heritage data sharing: the ecclesiastical repository for ecclesiastical treasures in the NARRATE project(International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing, 2025-10-01) Stamou, Aikaterini; Tsifodimou, Zoi-Eirini; Constantinides, Argyris; Belk, Marios; Evangelidis, Konstantinos; Sylaiou, Stella; Nassis, Fr Chrysostomos; Chrysafi, Eleni; Kaya, Güldehen; Şarlak, Evangelia; Ribolov, Svet; Karavaltchev, Ventzislav; Spirova, Polina; Stylianidis, EfstratiosCultural Heritage (CH) is a shared legacy, and its preservation reflects a collective responsibility to safeguard our common history. The ERASMUS+ project NARRATE - Needs for Digital Recording and Documentation of Ecclesiastical Cultural Treasures in Monasteries and Temples, funded by the European Union, aimed to preserve both tangible and intangible ecclesiastical heritage through the creation of a digital repository. NARRATE focused on the structured documentation of ecclesiastical CH and the management of a digital archive tailored to the needs of the clergy, many of whom are unfamiliar with digital tools. Through user-centered surveys, the project integrated the clergy's perspectives to ensure the tools developed were accessible and relevant. The repository comprises two components: i) the Interactive Dashboard, allowing users to manage ecclesiastical artifacts and access educational materials, and ii) the NARRATE Server, which comprises a Web application that enables end-users and third-party services to interact with it and exchange data, ensuring interoperability through CIDOC-based semantic metadata. Alongside, NARRATE offers multilingual educational resources, including videos and guides, designed for both clergy and the wider public. This fosters engagement in cataloguing, metadata annotation, and digital storytelling. NARRATE provides an inclusive platform for clergy, scholars, and the public to explore, preserve, and appreciate under-documented ecclesiastical treasures, contributing in this way to a cross-cultural understanding and sustainable heritage preservation.
