Let’s Brainstorm
Doodling and drawing have always been one of best methods for me to maintain focus. Often I would use them as a brainstorming device – writing and drawing on paper while my mind either wanders around or tries to solve something.

Can you play that one again?
Many of my doodles are inspired by bits and pieces of conversations I had. This one was drawn sometime in 2003. If I recall correctly, it was spawned when picking a piece of music for a video.
Bilgi Meeting
Another one drawn during the seemingly endless department meetings at the university (back in 2003). I decided not to clean this up, since some parts of the doodle are related to the notebook markings.
Prayer for Rainbow
Some people pray for rain, some pray for rainbows. Found this one in one of 2001 notebooks.
And you would be?…
Ah, the good old soft brush-tipped markers. I bought a set back in 2003 and drew this on the opening page of a brand new notebook. Unfortunately you won’t see many more of these as I used the markers on storyboards and never bothered to buy more.
Skull Helmet
My doodles almost always reflect my mood. Judging from this one I must have been feeling pretty dreadful when I drew it.
Hepi Berfdey
This was drawn sometime in 2003 and, apparently, there was somebody’s birthday. Maybe even mine – can’t really remember.
Philosopher’s Fractals
The university where I did my Master’s Degree in Graphic Design put really heavy emphasis on theory. In order to earn the required amount of credits I had to endure countless agonizing hours of poorly taught semiotics, post-modern philosophy, art critique and other useless crap. Seriously, how bored does the person have to be to draw a 3D representation of Sierpinski carpet… and then follow it up by the negative image of the form?
Cyborgs of Y2K
I think it is safe to say that around 1999-2000 I was completely obsessed with cyborgs. While I still entertain the idea of cybernetic and enhanced organisms, it is nowhere as strong as back then.
I Hate Reboots
I remember drawing this on one sunny Summer afternoon back in 2002. I was sitting in Café Pia, sipping beer and waiting for some friends of mine. They were really late.
