Trilogy of the Deserted City is an experiment dedicated to problematize the consequences of the internal migration that Istanbul received, transforming it into one of the most crowded cities in the world over a short span of fifty years, through the city’s “desertedness.”
The aim is not to be relieved of a sense of guilt evoked by the city by putting pieces of unorganized data next to each other. It is to call upon the souls that have remained hanging in its ominous history, disabling the unconscious, confronting the ab-normalities, revealing the repressed through skepticism.
In the three consecutive layers of fake investigation and misdirection, the “desertedness” that is sought, followed, watched, evidenced, researched, interrogated is internalized. Thus the exaggerated urban metaphor becomes a game through a one-person search against the city and collective memory by the individual.
This book was produced in parallel to Tayfun Serttaş’s exhibition at Studio-X Istanbul, Cemetery of Architects,

Everything we do has consequences. Some things are more important, others less so. Often, the future doesn’t look too bright. Catastrophes, crises and environmental destruction appear to be looming. A force majeure seems to be in control of our destiny … But is that really the case? Get together with experts in peace, aid and the environment, and develop new images of the future! And then print out your ideas, creatively and artistically, in the THINKING PICASSO art project.

This is a modest hommage to the courageous people of Fukushima prefecture. They survived a triple disaster in 2011 and are now, nine years later, still fighting with the consequences. I wish them well in their strugle for their beautiful province and thank them for their kindness during this trip.
Fukushima is the third largest prefecture in Japan (14,000 km²), and one of its least densely populated. The prefecture is divided into three main regions: Aizu in the west, Naka dori in the centre and Hama dori in the east. Aizu is mountainous with snowy winters, while the climate in Hama dori is moderated by the Pacific Ocean.
The Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster (福島第一原子力発電所事故 Fukushima Dai-ichi (About this soundpronunciation) genshiryoku hatsudensho jiko) was a nuclear accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant in Ōkuma, Fukushima Prefecture. The disaster was the most severe nuclear accident since the 26 April 1986 Chernobyl disaster and the only other disaster to be given the Level 7 event classification of the International Nuclear Event Scale.
The accident was started by the Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami on 11 March 2011.] On detecting the earthquake, the active reactors automatically shut down their fission reactions. Because of the reactor trips and other grid problems, the electricity supply failed, and the reactors' emergency diesel generators automatically started. Critically, they were powering the pumps that circulated coolant through the reactors' cores to remove decay heat, which continues after fission has ceased. The earthquake generated a 14-meter-high tsunami that swept over the plant's seawall and flooded the plant's lower grounds around the Units 1–4 reactor buildings with sea water, filling the basements and knocking out the emergency generators. The resultant loss-of-coolant accidents led to three nuclear meltdowns, three hydrogen explosions, and the release of radioactive contamination in Units 1, 2 and 3 between 12 and 15 March. The spent fuel pool of previously shut-down Reactor 4 increased in temperature on 15 March due to decay heat from newly added spent fuel rods, but did not boil down sufficiently to expose the fuel.
In the days after the accident, radiation released to the atmosphere forced the government to declare an ever larger evacuation zone around the plant, culminating in an evacuation zone with a 20-kilometer radius. All told, some 154,000 residents evacuated from the communities surrounding the plant due to the rising off-site levels of ambient ionizing radiation caused by airborne radioactive contamination from the damaged reactors.
Large amounts of water contaminated with radioactive isotopes were released into the Pacific Ocean during and after the disaster. Michio Aoyama, a professor of radioisotope geoscience at the Institute of Environmental Radioactivity, has estimated that 18,000 terabecquerel (TBq) of radioactive caesium 137 were released into the Pacific during the accident, and in 2013, 30 gigabecquerel (GBq) of caesium 137 were still flowing into the ocean every day. The plant's operator has since built new walls along the coast and also created a 1.5-kilometer-long "ice wall" of frozen earth to stop the flow of contaminated water.
While there has been ongoing controversy over the health effects of the disaster, a 2014 report by the United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation (UNSCEAR) and World Health Organization projected no increase in miscarriages, stillbirths or physical and mental disorders in babies born after the accident. An ongoing intensive cleanup program to both decontaminate affected areas and decommission the plant will take 30 to 40 years, plant management estimate.
On 5 July 2012, the National Diet of Japan Fukushima Nuclear Accident Independent Investigation Commission (NAIIC) found that the causes of the accident had been foreseeable, and that the plant operator, Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO), had failed to meet basic safety requirements such as risk assessment, preparing for containing collateral damage, and developing evacuation plans. At a meeting in Vienna three months after the disaster, the International Atomic Energy Agency faulted lax oversight by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, saying the ministry faced an inherent conflict of interest as the government agency in charge of both regulating and promoting the nuclear power industry. On 12 October 2012, TEPCO admitted for the first time that it had failed to take necessary measures for fear of inviting lawsuits or protests against its nuclear plants.

At Cannon Beach, c. 1951. Photo by F. R. Schultz, My father
Please ignore the sermonette below - unless you are a sucker for sermons.
During my childhood, my intake of candy was pretty modest since my mother observed the nutritional wisdom of the time. As it happened, some of our distant relatives ran a sweet shop next to Cannon Beach. We visited the shop, and someone observing my wide eyes handed me a lollipop as big as my face. Despite all the pessimistic warnings, I made an all-day project of devouring the lollipop, avoiding the sand as best I could (that took a little planning).
By the end of the day, I suffered the consequences of my indulgence and was thoroughly miserable. Several adults spoke to me sharply on the realities of life and the need for moderation and reminded me that I should have listened to their warnings. However, in spite of my temporary sufferings, life was to continue much as before: my tummy settled down overnight; my appetite returned the next day - the experience, however, rather put me off candy.
There are always temptations and warnings against temptation. We often come across the idea that only pessimism reflects reality, that optimism is merely a travesty of fools.
That said: I believe it's better to have a heart full of hope, tempered by a mind wise to the ways of the world.
Conclusion: let us embrace the indigestions of experience, for they are worth more than any banquet of warnings.

I found this little guy, and a white and brindle one, roaming around with the marsh rabbits at East Lake Tohopekaliga. Probably let loose by an irresponsible owner. The consequences of such actions are devastating to our ecosystems.
When I get information on the species I will post.

Whoever arrives "smashes" at the factory
Makes fittings "more or less" accurately,
Is the first "emergency expert" in the factory;
Is an invalid, broken by vodka...
Drunken eyes will be drawn to crime.
The factory will throw him out in disgrace.
The people will harshly sober up those who swim in moonshine currents.

Every year the graduating class of Ansonia High School gets a grim reminder of the dangers and consequences of underage drinking and driving under the influence in general. Ansonia's Emergency Services staged a head on drunk driving fatal accident complete with classmates of those watching as victims, extrication, mutual aid EMS, the Valley Paramedic Flycar, and a medevac with Hartford Hospitals's Lifestar helicopter. It was a well received demonstration with a strong take home message that drinking and driving don't mix. Hopefully the take home message will help discourage underage drinking and driving. www.onscenefirephoto.com
The media needs to have ethics in mind when writing a story, or else they may face consequences they never intended for.
