    Ex-libris in Turkey
    (İstanbul Ekslibris Derneği, 2016-07-01) Pektaş, Hasip
    Ex-libris has been introduced to Turkey either by Turks going abroad or via books purchased from the West. Ex-librises are found in some books on Turkey bought from auctions conducted in the West. It can be argued that those who have first got ex-librises made in the real sense in Turkey were the expatriate bibliophiles of that period. The number of bibliophiles as well as others, who get ex-librises done as a measure against theft by borrowers of books from their libraries, is increasing every other day. First established in Ankara in 1997, the Ex-libris Society in our country has continued its activities in Istanbul under the name of the Istanbul Ex-libris Society since 2008. Istanbul Ex-libris Museum was moved to new locality Işik University in Maslak in 2014. The collection of more than 17.000 ex-librises and library has created great opportunuties for researchers.

    A university museum: Istanbul Ex-libris Museum
    (İstanbul Ekslibris Derneği, 2016-07-01) Pektaş, Hasip
    Museums are cultural institutions that pass the treasures they host on to the future generations. The mission of modern museology is to educate the community and to contribute to its sociocultural development. Museums should not only be fostered by the state but all the segments of the society. Creating knowledge and carrying it on to the future generations, universities can be the leaders of museography. The communication and interaction of the museum and university with the public can be facilitated. There are only 38 university museums in Turkey. One of them is Istanbul Exlibris Museum (IEM) in Işık University. Small but highly functional museum has a collection of great value. Ex-libris are printmaking artwork affixed to the inside cover of books and contain the name of the owner of book. Istanbul Ex-Libris Society has organized three international competitions under the leadership of Hasip Pektas and the collected pieces of ex-libris have found a venue within the premises of Işık University. IEM has 14,000 pieces of ex-libris. All students visit the museum and participate in workshops. The goal of the museum is to remain for the future as an online museum. The purpose of this research is to share IEM’s development.

    An analysis of interactivty possibities in online journalism
    (Uluslararası Kıbrıs Üniversitesi, 2011) Öz Pektaş, Hatice
    The study in investigating the interactivity possibilities in cyber journalism in Turkey examines web sites of national newspapers comparatively to the web sites of newspapers from different countries thereby utilising the methodology of comparative analysis in its research of the interactivity possibilities in online journalism. The most important character of interactivity is that messages are formatted in relation to each other and in a way enabling the participation and or intervention of the user. Interactive communication is used in journalism to attract the reader’s attention and provide her/him with the information s/he needs in an effective manner. Some interactivity instruments are questionnaire, forum and chat facilities. With the advance of technology, interactivity in online (cyber) journalism and the “control” are both found to have increased and conveyed to the reader correspondingly to the “active consumer” models. Interactivity ensures the message is delivered at the right place by establishing a bidirectional communication with the reader. Reporting and broadcasting have a channel structure that changes constantly. Besides the fact that the reporting sector has a crucial role in the constant changes in the world, it is the sector that is influenced most by technology and changing living conditions. In this context, the use of online newspapers has become inevitable in journalism as a result of the changes in lifestyles. The act of reading the newspaper has gone beyond the ordinary interaction between the reader and the paper, and has become interactive where the reader is able to comment, to express himself/herself, and to discuss about the news with people around him or her. In other words, the interactivity possibilities in online (cyber) journalism increase the interest of the reader in the newspaper and enable him/her to spend time on that page besides reading the news.

    Sound and the healthy city
    (Bellwether Publishing, 2021) Radicchi, Antonella; Çevikayak Yelmi, Pınar; Chung, Andy; Jordan, Pamela; Stewart, Sharon; Tsaligopoulos, Aggelos; McCunn, Lindsay; Grant, Marcus
    At an international level it is recognised that urban noise has serious and negative public health impacts. This leading editorial and the special issue it accompanies seeks to broaden this agenda. An important goal for Cities & Health is to give ear to new urban health topics, methods and collaborations. In doing so this paper presents the topic of urban sound and health from several unique angles. At its core, we deliberately move the focus beyond noise levels, as measured by decibels, and harm to health through the stress of relentless background noise. Instead, we focus on the concept of soundscape, a more qualitatively nuanced research subject of enquiry. The paper serves as an introduction to soundscape and health from several distinct disciplinary positions and lays a good intellectual foundation for the twenty-two papers published in this special issue. We hope that through a soundscape approach we can encourage fresh thinking about urban sound, including how people perceive and relate to their sonic environments, and show how sound can contribute to health. We believe that this approach can provide a collaborative platform for sound artists, sound technologists, urbanists and local people to work together with public health and create healthier urban environments.

    Designing an interactive non-linear documentary contributed by public participation suburbs of Istanbul
    (Association for Computing Machinery, 2020-07-03) Çevikayak Yelmi, Pınar; Bayar, Tulu
    Suburbs of Istanbul is a web-based interactive documentary project that examines the identity of suburban neighborhoods in Istanbul through the participation of its residents via online submission of their visual and written stories. Public participation also led the design process and helped prototype the interfaces of this non-linear documentary. This project aims to contribute to the field of interactive documentary and non-linear storytelling by integrating participatory design techniques in the prototyping process of documentary interfaces. Involving public both as content providers and as active decision makers in design process lead to a more genuine outcome with a human-centered approach. This project also intends to create an interactive experience to provide a greater insight into rapidly changing lifestyles of Turkish people, to provide a global context to the stories presented, and to generate widespread awareness of issues surrounding suburban lifestyles across the world.

    The relation between infographic and visual literacy
    (ITICAM, 2018-07) Uyan Dur, Banu İnanç
    The developments in communication technology didn’t only affect the visible side of life but also transformed the ways of thinking, perception and interpretation. The form of communication through visuals is accepted to be the reality of today. On the other hand, the digital evolution due to the advances in technology has had the advantage of ever increasing flow of data and information. Therefore, processing the intense, unorganized and complex data to transform them into meaningful and useful datasets has become an area gaining more importance. Making information more understandable for wider audience requires the presentation of data through systematic visualization. Therefore, infographics have become an element that is used more frequently in every media. Infographics fulfil a very important need in this age by presenting the information and data that increases due to technological developments through an understanding focusing on functionality and aesthetics where visual communication is in the center. In understanding infographics, the visual literacy level of the user is a factor that is as important as the quality of the design. This article examines the relation of visual literacy with the process of reading, perceiving and interpreting the infographics.
