Art & Research

2012–2023 I was an academic researcher (MA, PhD, postdoc) in human-computer interaction design.

I published 30+ scientific papers and 4 open source software projects, co-founded the first design lab and research center in Turkey, and raised $4M to fund research groups in Turkey and Sweden.
