The Innocence Of Objects

Guess I have to go to Istanbul.

"The Museum of Innocence created in Istanbul by the Turkish novelist and Nobel Prize winner Orhan Pamuk. This small, beautifully realized, vertical display, which occupies a burgundy-hued house in the city’s Çukurcuma neighborhood, is a parallel project planned for many years by Pamuk as a development of his 2008 novel, also titled The Museum of Innocence."

Captain Hooey vs Spacekisser

Very funny Turkish Star Trek Parody.

Vestel Pirates vs Somali Pirates

Commercial for the Turkish export company Vestel. It is funny ... but a bit far from reality and the product.

Not far off the Somali coast one of the big Vestel cargo vessels is taken over by pirates! Within a split of a second the ship has a new captain, the soup is gone as well as the cargo itself. Will our Vestrons be able to strike back?
