Review Citation - WoS: 0Mimarlığın Maddiliği(Middle East Technical Univ, 2020) Çavdar, Rabia Çiğdem; Cavdar, Rabia Cigdem; 237969; MimarlıkConference Object From Badlands of Plastics to Up-cycled Objects: Tertium Non Data(Cankaya University Press, 2018) Çavdar, Rabia Çiğdem; 237969; MimarlıkRoland Barthes (1991) stated, “A miracle is always a sudden transformation of nature.” Originally, plastic could be seen as a man-made material (thing) transformed from a natural material. Plastic is a new “perfect” material-object produced from earthly raw material. Although its discovery time is not very long, it is obvious that it has a long lifetime after once produced. That is why it is needed to find sustainable ways to manage the world of plastic objects. There are many re-cycling projects related with plastics, but here I would like to mention an “up-cycling” project of plastics. It is a “revaluation process” of plastics, it is “Tertium Non Data” done by Gülnur Özdağlar. In this miraculous process, useless-epidemic-uninspired plastic things transformed into something endemic and unique. “Tertium Non Data” could be a sustainable way of living with plastics.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 0The Impact of Architectural Education on Children(Elsevier Science Bv, 2012) Çavdar, Rabia Çiğdem; Cavdar, Rabia Cigdem; 237969; MimarlıkArchitectural education as a design education always encourages the creativity. The case studies realized with children shows that facing architecture in early ages when their brain has not formatted has a great potential both for architectural milieu and for consciousness of the children related to their surroundings. Being conscious in early age might bring an opportunity to shape more meaningful environments. For example, there is no need to be an architect to behave responsible with their environment; such as ecological problems, sustainability, traffic problems which are the tools for educating more responsible generations with their environment. They can perceive the world in different ways and constitute a conscious understanding of built environment. These meetings have double sided effect both on their mind and the milieu of architecture. This article will discuss mentioned thoughts above by means of workshops held abroad. (C) 2012 Published by Elsevier Ltd. Selection and/or peer review under responsibility of Prof. Ayse Cakir IlhanArticle Farklılığın Mekanı: Foucault ve Lefebvre’deki Heterotopya ve Heterotopi Ayrımı(2018) Çavdar, Rabia Çiğdem; Çavdar, Rabia Çiğdem; 237969; MimarlıkKent içerisinde giderek artan bir biçimde kentlinin özgür kullanımının dışına itilen mekanlarla karşılaşılmaktadır. Bu itiliş -özgür kentsel kullanımın terkedilmeye zorlanması- aynı zamanda iktidar aygıtlarının kontrol edebildiği mekanlar ya da mekansal donatılar tarafından işgal edilmiş gündelik hayat anlamına gelmektedir. Bu durum erkin, kent içinde bir tür türdeş, sıkıcı ve steril mekanlar oluşturma girişimi olarak değerlendirilebilir. Erk, çeşitlilikten yalıtılmış, sayısal kontrol mekanizmaları ile fiziksel takibin olası kılındığı ve her türlü sosyal etkileşim derinliğinin azaltıldığı, bu mekanizmaların işletilemediği durumda fiziksel erişimin engellendiği bir mekanlar dizisi (dizge değil) ya da kent düzlemi (örüntü değil) oluşturma eğilimindedir. “Heterotopik” mekanların, erk tarafından sönümlendirilmesi girişimiyle karşı karşıya kalındığı aşikardır. Bu bağlamda, Foucault’nun “Heterotopia” ve Lefebvre’in “Heterotopy” kavramları, kentin özgür ve kamusal alanlarını yeniden okuyabilmek için elealınabilir mi? Farklılığın mekanını tarifleyen bu kavramlar sanki aynı durumu tarifliyor gibi gözükseler de aralarında net ayrımların olduğu belirlenmiştir. Bu makale farklılığın mekanının ayrımını bütüncül bir bakışla ortaya çıkarma girişimidir. Bu metin, farklılığın mekanlarının yeniden okunabilmesi ve kentsel yaşantının kaybolan özgür yanının yeniden görülmesi gereğinin dillendirilmesi için yazılmıştır.Article An Architectural Reading of Zamyatin’s Intersectional Elements in The Novel “We”(2021) Çavdar, Rabia Çiğdem; Çavdar, Rabia Çiğdem; 237969; Mimarlık“We” was written by Russian novelist Yevgeny Zamyatin in 1921 after the Soviet Revolution. To be at the edge of the conflicts was scrutinized at the novel, in which the protagonist, labeled as D-503, having a tentative position at the well-defined ground by the power which presented itself as the truth or the law. The narration was constructed via the diary of protagonist; how D-503 perceived the paradigm, which he had lived in, what kind of conflicts and contradictions he had been living with the system was questioned. Zamyatin chose very specific architectural elements to explain and criticize the dominant paradigm of the era -early 1920’s, and the periphery of that dominancy; like Green Wall, Glass Wall, logical labyrinth, cube square, and etc. These intersectional elements were constructed as in the form of blurred voids in order to unfold the ideological positions of the written period of the novel. The materialization and meaning of the walls, could be read as dialectic conceiving of how Zamyatin scrutinized both the revolution and the paradigm. As being a dystopia, the novel “We” criticizes the idealized beliefs that were presented as transparent, lucid and conductive.
