Dancing Robots

Pera Kids
Ages 9-11

  • March 13, 2022 / 13:30

At the workshop to take place during Science and Technology Week, we’ll be chatting about examples in art in which technology is used and then we’ll meet the musician Yuri Suziki, who has formed an orchestra. We’ll design a dancing robot using various materials and then learn about the relationship between the operational speed of a simple motor in an electric circuit and the energy source. We’ll also learn how engineering skills are used in daily life, scientific research and how they’re used in art.

Postcard Nudes

Postcard Nudes

The various states of viewing nudity entered the Ottoman world on postcards before paintings. These postcards appeared in the 1890s, and became widespread in the 1910s, following the proclamation of the Second Constitutional Monarchy, traveling from hand to hand, city to city.
