    Workplace Microaggressions Against LGBTI Plus Employees in Turkey: a Thematic Analysis of Environmental and Interpersonal Discrimination
    (Emerald Group Publishing Ltd, 2025) Selen, Eser; O'Neil, Mary Lou; Ergun, Reyda
    PurposeThe current study aimed to determine the extent and scope of microaggressions in the workplace directed towards LGBTI+ employees in Turkey.Design/methodology/approachThe research used both quantitative and qualitative data based on 664 statements made by individuals in the "The Situation of LGBTI+ Employees in the Private and Public Sector in Turkey" survey conducted between 2015 and 2020 (n = 2,695). The quantitative data consist of frequencies and the qualitative data center on answers to nine open ended questions regarding LGBTI+ individuals' experiences of discrimination in the workplace. We employed the taxonomy proposed by Nadal et al. (2010) to determine which actions constituted microaggressions and the form they took. We also conducted a critical discourse analysis of the open-ended questions where individuals described their experiences of microaggressions.FindingsMicroaggressions directed at LGBTI+ employees are pervasive in Turkey. Microaggressions largely follow the taxonomy created by Nadal et al. (2010) although we did not find microaggressions in all of the taxonomy's categories. We found that microaggressions mostly take the form of phobic language and mockery followed by heteronormativity, exoticization and disapproval. Two further categories, othering and threatening behaviors, emerged from our data.Originality/valueThis study addresses a significant gap in the literature on workplace microaggressions against LGBTI+ individuals, particularly in non-Western contexts. To our knowledge, it is the first study of its kind conducted in a non-Western Muslim-majority country. The research uniquely captures and critically analyzes the lived experiences of LGBTI+ employees through their own narratives, examining how microaggressions manifest as discriminatory discourses in the workplace.

    Mediating Eversion :an Analysis of Virtual Reality in Bodily Experience
    (Kadir Has Üniversitesi, 2016) Andıç, Atanur; Selen, Eser
    This study is an analysis of perceptual and behavioral understanding of audio-visual mediations from the subject’s (user/viewer) perspective. The aim is to analyze the processes in the perception of the content and form of the media as well as how their physical mass are received. in the tracked evolvement of media the concept of “eversion” by Marcus Novak is introduced to analyze the Head Mounted Display (HDM) media as they are more adaptable to their subjects. Maurice Merleau-Ponty’s understanding of perception and existence are being used in defining the notion of experience. The thesis states that the subjects in experience of the HMD media perceptually are in control of the narrative while being re-embodied through the spatial elements of polysemous content. in the conclusion how spatiality of content become a performative value is reached.

    “the Public Immoralist”: Discourses of Queer Subjectification in Contemporary Turkey
    (University of Southern California, 2020) Selen, Eser
    This study examines the forms of queer subjectification that have been molded through regular acts of gender- and sexuality-based violence against LGBTQ+ citizens as encouraged by the dominant religious and secular discourses in Turkey. Within that context, this article explicates the discursive mechanisms at work in the statements that were made by politicians and journalists between 2002 and 2018. In those discourses, the qualities attributed to nonheteronormative sexualities, such as perversion and disease, are perhaps the most widespread means of negating the existence of LGBTQ+ citizens and claiming that their lifestyles are “immoral.” Based on a case study that incorporates the existing historical and sociopolitical background, which props up a heteronormative patriarchal culture, this study critically analyzes the discourses that have emerged in a state of moral panic regarding queer in/visibilities, dis/appearances, and aversions/subversions in the Turkish sociopolitical sphere.

    Maker Movement’s Effects on the Democratization of Design Process
    (Kadir Has Üniversitesi, 2017) Çeliksap, Burcu; Selen, Eser
    This thesis examines how Maker Movement democratizes the design process by focusing on technologies and tools used by Makers. The Maker Movement has formed by people from different social-economic groups gather to create new jobs innovate by accessing the open source tools of production. The discourse of the Maker Movement is on the political spectrum because of its contents such as knowledge exchange manufacturing using technology and tools ushering “the new industrial revolution.” (Anderson 2012) The study explores questions such as how society involves itself in this movement? How people communicate and transfer their knowledge? How do the effects of Makers Movement effects on society engagement change the economic structure within society? Lastly how can the new tools for design process in Maker movement be democratized and the roles of designers in this movement? The context of this study invites us to embrace the humanist implications of interaction with technology in the contexts of production design process content sharing accessibility to the tools of production creating small businesses and access/hack of materials utilized and having a vision towards the future of Maker Movement. Maker Movement and the Maker Community might shine a light on our formal values ethics and communication as this study is an ongoing project since the Maker Movement is happening now and is developing and growing every day.

    Cybernetic Narrative Modes of Circularity, Feedback and Perception in New Media Artworks
    (Emerald Group Publishing Ltd, 2015) Selen, Eser
    Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to explore how second-order cybernetics (von Foerster, 2002) functions in new media artworks, specifically through information, system and user. While formulating the relationship between new media artworks and the discourses surrounding cybernetics the paper analyzes Popp's (2006) Bit. Fall, Wojtowicz's (2007) Elsewhere News and Zeren Goktan's (2013) The Counter, as exemplars of alternative methods of narration. This study further argues that these new media artworks employ a cybernetic narrative via modes of "circularity," "feedback," and "perception." Design/methodology/approach - This paper offers a theoretical approach to new media art and cybernetics in order to analyze three select works. Since the works mentioned have diverse takes on the presented concepts each is discussed and analyzed in their frame of production in relation to cybernetics and new media standpoints. Findings - It is significant that these three artists attempt to invert the quotidian into the concept of new media while cybernetics facilitates their interactive art installations. The fully functioning circularity in these works breaks down the linear narrative structure while regenerating a non-linear narrative together with the flow of information, utilization of the systems and the user interaction. In these works narrative functions as a tool for interaction, which is cybernetically generated by the user (human) and the systems (machine). Originality/value - New media artworks at least suggest a possibility of observing contemporary art and its history in the making if not generating it altogether through cybernetic modes of "circularity," "feedback" and "perception." The experience of these artworks for each user differs depending on their choice to either reject or become immersed in the work. The possible sensoria, however, may still be betrayed by the mind's willingness to cooperate or at times by the ability to perceive.

    Displaying Heritage in Contemporary Turkey
    (Kadir Has Üniversitesi, 2019) Şimşek, Cansu Nur; Selen, Eser
    This study is an analysis of the reconceptualization of cultural heritage via its display by contemporary art practices. Through the proposed title the understanding of heritage is reframed as an experience which is intertemporal, inter-generational, and ephemeral, that creates in-between spaces. In the first chapter heritage, today is assessed with a conclusion as to let heritage to define itself can be possible by the artistic ways of looking, displaying and also preserving the idea of heritage. Chapter Two approaches heritage both as a performance and experience while the linear perception of time is criticized by referring to the concept of contemporariness. The merging of the past, present, and future imagination is explained with mnemonic time engineering model. In the scope of Istanbul, displaying heritage have been practiced through the usage of heritage spaces for temporary contemporary art exhibitions mostly by the Istanbul Biennials. In the Chapter Three, displaying heritage and contemporary art in tandem is read as a method for alternating the spaces of exhibitions. Therefore, the conventional exhibiting methods of the art galleries, museums and biennials are also analysed. In Chapter Four, the spatial experience “Water Soul” (2015) and the practices of an art collective Oddviz and their works from the “Inventory” (2018) exhibition are analysed under the concept of displaying heritage today. In the final chapter the study is concluded that heritage today can be reconceptualized by the decentralized, and the multi-media-based gaze of art today, by allowing it to be able to define itself in a way that it cannot be adapted, stereotyped or forgotten.

    An Exploration of Space in Murakami's the Wind-Up Bird Chronicle and After Dark
    (Kadir Has Üniversitesi, 2019) Tüfekçioğlu, Burcu; Selen, Eser
    Bu çalışma, Haruki Murakami'nin iki farklı eserinin yakın okumasını yaparak, eserlerdeki mekânlar ve karakterler arasındaki ilişkiyi ve bu karşılıklı ilişkili olma durumunun önemini ortaya koymak amacıyla sunulmuştur. Zemberek Kuşunun Güncesi (1994-95) ve Karanlıktan Sonra (2004) adlı romanlar arasındaki benzerlikler bu amaç doğrultusunda incelenmiştir. Bu tezde Henri Lefebvre'nin mekân teorisi üzerinden eserlerdeki mekânların ve karakterlerin birbirlerini nasıl eş zamanlı olarak ürettikleri karşılaştırmalı bir biçimde ele alınmaktadır. Yıllar boyunca, Murakami kitaplarının kendine özgü bir dünyaya sahip olduğu iddia edilmiştir. Bu çalışmada, kitaplardaki karakterlerin ve mekânların birbirleri sayesinde nasıl kendilerini var ettikleri açıklanmaktadır. Karakterlerin ortaya çıkması için mekânın zorunlu olduğunu öne sürmekle birlikte, çalışma, aynı şekilde karakterlerin de mekânın üretilmesi için zorunlu olduğunu savunuyor. Araştırmadan beklenen sonuç, her iki romandaki mekânlar ve karakterler arasında etkileşimin benzeşen yönlerini ortaya çıkarmaktır.
