To celebrate Istanbul as the European Capital of Culture 2010….we’re curating a series of weblinks to best views of this unparalleled Turkish city from around the web and around the world.
FORMAT: We’re looking for provocative posts — both fresh and classic — touching on the crossroads and dichotomies of the hybrid metropolis…anthology editors with Turkey's culture + tourism minister Ertuğrul Günay
- modern existences in historic places
- deep-rooted traditions translated in mobile times
- limiting stereotypes revisited for wider meaning
Tell us how Istanbul’s culture affects you, focus on a particular time and place and tell us how it made you think and feel — and if it made you act! If you want, fashion the post expat+HAREM style: 300 words or less, make a statement, and ask a question. Incorporate your favorite links.
We also like weblinks to original
GRAPHICS, IMAGES, MULTIMEDIA & VIDEOS.
expat+HAREM will curate the best Istanbul links every month
BY THE 15TH OF EACH MONTH: Submit your blog carnival entry or suggest a favorite web find created by someone else.
