Yetkin, still working on his PhD.
A newbie in html, forgive the ugly yet page. Till now I was presenting most of my videos in Vimeo, but gotta learn how to manage this eventually.
"Hands on data"
Physics
Working in the CMS experiment for the last 6 years... Detailed information on our research can be found here in the webpage of the relativistic heavy-ion group at MIT. It is a really great experience, and as well a great resource of inspiration of visuals. In particular, the fluidity of so-called Quark-Gluon plasma is a very interesting phenomenon to visualize.
CMS Detector
Display of a head-on heavy-ion collision event in CMS. NOT my work, and the credit belongs to CMS collaboration.
Experimental videos
Music Hack @ MIT : Virtual turntable
The track position controlled by kinect, based on rotation of the right arm, pace controlled by the height of the left hand. Also some triggers for drums, just for fun. Synapse (by Ryan Challinor) is used for skeleton finding interface, and further calculations are done in Quartz Composer, sending MIDI signals to Ableton Live. The Quartz Composer project can be downloaded here.
Simple visuals with Kinect
My first test with Kinect and Synapse in Quartz Composer. The QC project can be downloaded here.
Real-time SlitScan in Quartz Composer
Capture from simple slit scan
The QC project can be downloaded here.
Bouncing particles in Processing
Capture from Processing project, bouncing particles off the live image.
The Processing project can be downloaded here.
Interaction of strobe light with visuals

Live visual performances
Most of my "projection mapping" projects were by remote participation with the team in Turkey.

Below are some examples of my own live VJing experience. As obvious, I rely heavily on video input... I use VDMX for VJing, where effects implemented in Quartz Composer can be easily imported.
