Digital Compositions with Physical Movement

Pera Kids
Ages 7-12

  • January 23, 2025 / 13:30

The workshop combines colors and geometric shapes with technology to balance order and disorder through bodily movement. In the workshop, which begins with the discovery of the works of Vera Molnár, Dóra Maurer, and Gizella Rákóczy with calculative and intuitive approaches, children design libraries of colors and shapes and set creative rules about them. Defining these rules in the Monnom software, which allows interaction with movement, the children's physical movements in front of the camera are transformed into original digital compositions.

Instructor: Monnom
Capacity: 12 people
Duration: 75 minutes
Fee per workshop: 300 TL  

The event will take place at the Pera Museum.

About Monnom
Monnom is a safe digital game platform developed by interior architect, designer, and illustrator İpek Kay within the framework of her doctoral thesis completed in ITU Architectural Design Informatics Programme in 2021, which aims to support children's spatial experiences and creativity by using visual and digital environments simultaneously. It allows children to create their own rules and play materials in their learning and play processes and supports them to use their fine and gross motor skills. Over time, Monnom has developed collaborations with museums and schools and has evolved into an interdisciplinary studio that designs tools and environments that support children's sensory experiences and creative learning processes by combining physical and digital environments.

Midnight Stories: COGITO
Tevfik Uyar

He had imagined the court room as a big place. It wasn’t. It was about the size of his living room, with an elevation at one end, with a dais on it. The judges and the attorneys sat there. Below it was an old wooden rail, worn out in some places. That was his place. There was another seat for his lawyer. At the back, about 20 or 30 chairs were stowed out for the non-existent crowd.
