"Yekpare" is a storyteller which narrates the 8500 year story of Istanbul. The story embraces symbols from Pagans to Roman Empire, from Byzantine Empire to Latin Empire, and finally from Ottoman Empire to Istanbul at the present day.

Haydarpaşa Train Station, with its brilliant architectural forms, is the building on which the story is projected. The connection between middle east to west has been provided by Istanbul and Haydarpaşa since 1906. In the 50’s it served as a door for millions of internal emigrants who have triggered the chaos in Istanbul's dialectical daily life scenes.The project's conceptual, political and geographical positioning, the location’s depth of field and the fact that the entire show can be watched from Kadıköy coast; make "Yekpare" a dramatic presentation.

The first day of the performance also marks the 47th deathday of Nazım Hikmet Ran, the famous Turkish poet. We started out with a quote from his epic novel, "Human Landscapes from My Country": “At Haydarpaşa Train Station, in the spring of 1941, it is three o’clock. Sun, exhaustion and rush lay on the stairs...”

    Your performance has two aspects. In one aspect, the visuals are simply projected onto the building and the building is not a part of the story. It is just a screen where the visuals are projected onto. This part is, I think, a little long. In the second aspect, the building is a part of the visuals. That's when the performance comes into life and becomes really interesting. Since the model of the building projected onto the building, it comes into life. I think, this part must be longer. Other than that, I like it. Very smart and interesting.

    this is fascinating visualization on an interesting space I wish i could better interpret some of the abstractions a little better. Like what is happening btw 4:10 and 8:30 ? I can only guess that the colorful chaos is a reflection of how it was, always at war, always a key point in control of the earth. Would have appreciated detailed shots of the windows at 3:30 for the Christian introduction which then gets swallowed by Islam very interesting. and closeups for 11:20 or just a higher res upload that we can blow up! Great work tho, had a good time interpreting and watching it :) do more of these installations i'd pay to watch one live
