Digital Stories Workshop / Istanbul Museum of Modern Art
Location: Istanbul Modern Museum, Art Maker Lab
Date: September 21, 2019
Participants: 7-8 Year-olds and 9-12 Year-olds
"In this workshop, the children create digital pictures by experimenting with Monnom, a software the designer developed as part of her research which aims to link the physical and virtual environments. The program begins with a tour of Istanbul Modern’s collection exhibition “In Pursuit of the Present” during which the children identify the images in the artworks that impress them most. During the workshop, they match up these images with objects of different colors and shapes and import them into the Monnom software. They then create compositions using these objects and their corresponding images on the screen. The workshop offers children a technology-based art experience through the interaction with objects, images, the body, and space."
