INTRODUCTION. When we create this project, we think about the society in Istanbul, for us was really important to create a conection with the people of Istanbul. At the beggining of this project we ask our self what can we do to get in touch with the “real” people of Turkey. As foreigners of this country, we try to saw the daily life of the city in the short period that we were there. Knowing people taking to them and as well trying to be part of them, we discover how different is the culture as we imagine (stereotypes). Is hard to describe a daily life in a city in a short time but we can say that this city impressed us. Is a city where the economical contrast is very present, also where the religion a enormous power has but at the same time he contradicts himself. All of this situations inspired us to make intervensions in the public areas of istanbul We meet incredible students from the marmara university who help us to develop our city faces project.
CONCEPT. The main concept of this project was to show the expirinces that we experiment there. We catch in video the most impresive moments of our stay in Istanbul. we try to collect many videos to show the culture and the daily life in this huge city. After one week we take the city as a museum and with a projector we reproduced those images in the streets that some how were conected with this videos. We saw the reaction of the people in a positive way, the students of the marmara university give us the idea to recreate the same idea in germany. thats why we decide to project the same images in Weimar. For us was a really nice experience to show those videos in a different country. This project was made with a lot of feelings inside and therefor we received the positive aceptation in the two countries.
