This thesis attempts to analyze the formation of art as social process by focusing on hybrid constitution of new media art form. Hybridization in new media art is taken into account as intersection of different spheres by which limitations of different spheres transcend and new possiblities arise. Accordingly, not only new media art form is established via various types of relationings but also it leads to formation of different types of social relations.

The Concept of disinterestedness in modern philosophy of art: Kant, Schopenhauer, Nietzsche, and Heidegger Akkökler Karatekeli, Büşra; Turan, Şeref Halil; Department of Philosophy (2016) This thesis aims to investigate the concept of disinterestedness in the modern philosophy of art. To this end, I firstly attempt to elucidate how this concept is described and gained its specific meaning in Kant. Then, I focus on Schopenhauer’s salient contribution to the discussion of aesthetic disinterestedness – thought along with his metaphysics –, namely the body, and attempt to bring into view the relation between the body and aesthetic disinterestedness. In the following, I investigate how Nietzsche’...
Transformation of architectural space with the aid of artistic production Özden, Başak; Savaş Sargın, Ayşen; Department of Architecture (2011) The goal of this thesis is to study the transformation of architectural space with the aid of artistic production. By questioning architectural production as a non-static process open to alteration and intervention, this condition is claimed to enlarge the frontiers of architecture in terms of interdisciplinary contributions and new design methods. Inspired by the course ARCH 524, conducted by Assoc. Prof. Dr. Ayşen Savaş in the METU Department of Architecture, this study aims to understand the possible way...
Ethics for industrial design : an ethico-political critique of sustaninability in industrial design Şişman, Osman; Kurtgözü, Aren Emre; Department of Industrial Design (2005) This thesis analyses the concept of sustainability as applied and reflected in industrial design practice in a theoretical way. The discourses on sustainability in general are explored in terms of ecology, economics and politics. The underlying motives resulting in unsustainable ways of production and consumption practices are attempted to be located in contemporary society.
Arthur Danto’s ontology of aesthetics upon pop art İsmet, Burçak; Parkan, Barış; Department of Philosophy (2014) The main objective of this dissertation is to examine Arthur Danto’s method of indiscernibles in his theory of aesthetics. In order to explicate this conception, Danto’s method of indiscernibles is elucidated by means of Andy Warhol’s works of Pop Art. Through this study Danto’s critical approach against traditional realism in philosophy of art is examined and Danto’s renewed solution for the reality problem of artworks is exposed with the acquaintance of Warhol’s art. After the examination of Danto’s use o...
Architecture, revolution and temporality: the Soviet avant-garde and the politics of modernism Demirok, Görkem; Sargın, Güven Arif; Department of Architecture (2017) This study aims to present a political re-reading of modernism and the Soviet Avant-garde through their conceptualizations of temporality. To that end, affirmative and negative characteristics of modernism and the avant-garde in their relation to modernity and the capitalist mode of production are examined, and their over-identification with capitalism is questioned. Thereafter, the Soviet context of modernism and the avant-garde are analyzed through the temporal conception of Bolshevism. The study claims t...
