Can you code Istanbul? The silhouette of Istanbul holds many stories. Everyone looking at the same panorama will see a different story, imagining a distinct Istanbul. But what would this panorama look like if we drew it with code? In the online workshop, participants experiment with drawing geometric shapes using different codes given to them.
Note: Participants are not expected to have prior programming knowledge. The p5.js programming language will be used online, and there is no need for participants to install any programs on their tablets or computers.

Ali Sami is born in Rusçuk in 1866, and moves to İstanbul. Because his family is registered in the Beylerbeyi quarter of Üsküdar, Ali Sami is also called Üsküdarlı Ali Sami. He graduates from the Mühendishane-i Berri-i Hümayun in 1866 and becomes a teacher of painting and photography at the school.

Following the opening of his studio, “El Chark Societe Photographic,” on Beyoğlu’s Postacılar Caddesi in 1857, the Levantine-descent Pascal Sébah moves to yet another studio next to the Russian Embassy in 1860 with a Frenchman named A. Laroche, who, apart from having worked in Paris previously, is also quite familiar with photographic techniques.
