    Prayer Bead Gestures and Television: a Case Study on Cultural Inspirations for Interaction Art Education
    (MIT Press Journals, 2009) Özcan, Oğuzhan; Akdemir, Emre; O'Neil, Mary Lou; Ayça Ünlüer, Adviye
    The authors interactive design-art educators recount their experience in using cultural inspirations as part of student exercises. The authors found that although students proposed various design concepts drawing from the surrounding culture very few moved beyond experience design art. In order to remedy this situation without giving explicit direction the authors encouraged students to examine cultural habits and/or artifacts from their past or their current lives in the hope that this could generate innovative design ideas. One such project is the Prayer Bead Gesture Based TV Input Device. ©2009 ISAST.

    Strangers To and Producers of Their Own Culture: American Popular Culture and Turkish Young People
    (2010) O'Neil, Mary Lou; Güler, Fazil
    American popular culture is virtually everywhere including Turkey. Turkey is a close ally of the United States and American cultural products have long been present in Turkey. How does the presence of American popular culture in Turkey affect young people? Employing a series of focus groups comprised of Turkish university students we explored the meanings they attach to American popular culture and the place it has in their lives. What emerged was a portrait of Turkish young people constructing themselves and their imaginations from a multiplicity of traditions including American into an ever changing shifting whole. The Turkish young people in this study seem to exemplify this as they blend their lives not always easily or smoothly around Turkish American European and numerous other cultures. © W. S.
