This course investigates the relations between human and non-human subjects. The general aim of the course is to think about the philosophical boundaries of a human being and enhance our point of view about collective life. Displacing human beings from the driving seat of history has serious political and ethical implications, which would undermine almost all the assumptions of our current economy and challenge bureaucratic-technocratic apparatuses of the state. This is one way to describe the course. Another would be the following: We are at the verge of an ecological crisis and this course provides an assessment of where we are at the moment. It opens up a space to interrogate governmental technologies as well as political subjectivities of our times. The readings challenge dominant frameworks, which are directly linked to our conceptions of democracy, equality, justice and commodity production. The course is divided into three sections. The first part sets out with the problem. This section illustrates some of the possible threats we are all facing now, such as the increasing carbon emissions or intensified inequalities. The second part maps out the history of ecological problems and how they are represented by development agencies, states, activists and scientists. The final part consists of selected case studies.

This course aims to reveal the vital connection between beliefs and their respective geographies. During the course, rather than describing the rules and structures of the monotheistic religions, the background and the historical continuity of these religions will be discussed. Also, the periods of cultural change, which both affects and being affected by the history, politics and religion, will be examined. The village in which the course will be taken also serves as the medium of our research. This allows us to demonstrate the undeniable effect of the “space” on the connection between the politics, culture and religion. Discussing how some concepts like “past”, “memory”, “script”, “spoken word”, “knowledge”, “remembering” are being considered as components of history and finding out how these concepts are mostly evaluated in a political structure rather than a philosophical or historical approach are the main aims of this course.

It has become clear that we live in an increasingly interdependent world: Agricultural prices in the United States or the sovereign debt level in Greece can and do determine employment and economic growth in Bursa and every other part of the world; carbon dioxide emissions from China can affect crop yields in Konya and the quality of life in Bangladesh, Vietnam, and beyond; an epidemic in Mexico or a nuclear leak in Japan can determine the state of public health policies halfway around the world. Our lives are no longer solely authored by us but are being co-authored with others. How we manage and navigate our epic global interdependence is one of the most pressing and thorny questions of our century. During this course, we will try to seek answers to this question.

The course investigates structural masonry by integrating the use of digital parametric form-finding software in order to design and implement novel forms in masonry. Masonry structures, limited to compression-only form, traditionally necessitated distinct geometrical constraints in order to be structurally stable. By utilizing RhinoVAULT, a funicular form-finding software the students will be able to design exciting funicular shapes while at the same time understand their underlying structural principles. The first week of the workshop will introduce the students to the software, while in the second week the students will be constructing a vaulted brick structure that they designed during the first week.

Historically, human dwellings have often been accommodated within a single room. The contemporary notion of a dwelling being composed of disparate rooms for disparate functions- living room, dining room, bedroom, etc.- is perhaps an architectural anomaly of luxury that parcel-izes the activities of our daily lives and our social interactions. The studio “ODA” - A ONE ROOM DWELLING FOR THE 21st CENTURY proposes that after carefully studying previous examples of single space houses, new models can be invented to coincide with new ways of life at the beginning of this millennium. For the studio, we will study the Schindler House in Los Angeles, the neo-lithic dwellings at Catal Huyuk, nomadic tents and gecekondu. In Istanbul, we will visit and document some gecekondu dwellings with special attention paid to the way in which their rooms form an architecture of performative domesticity. The documentation will take the form of measuring, drawing, photographic “scans” and interviews with the dwellers. Physical models at a scale of 1:50 minimum scale will be produced. It will be helpful if the students have access to 3D printing of small elements for their models. Students should have basic model building tools.
