Tracing Tomorrow: An AI Journey Towards the Next Century of the Republic of Turkey
This workshop takes a thoughtful look at how to imagine the 200th anniversary of the Republic of Turkey, by using AI image generators. The focus is on understanding how life has evolved in Turkey over the past century in areas such as fashion, transportation, nightlife (concept for a 200th-anniversary ball), architecture, public gardens, and educational institutions like universities and research centers.
Participants reviewed important historical events and places, using AI to create stories and visions about the next hundred years in Turkey.
Their work including images generated by AI, were displayed in a virtual reality setting created in Mozilla Hubs. This setting was inspired by Ankara's Exhibition House, a notable venue for displays in 20th-century Turkey.
