Machines of urban living, spying,

Species that capture the living

A dozen or more shells of voyeuristic devices,

Installed in public, watching the passersby

Prey to none, prone to fly,

Seizing their targets passing by,

Silent hunters, lidless eye,

Nested high, they never die.

Do you recognize the species?

In LiveDisplay, architect Nilüfer Kozikoğlu seamlessly bridges the digital and physical through a striking installation that translates the interface of the blog agacsakal.com into a spatial, material experience. Drawing on content about natural micro-ecosystems, such as terrariums, marino systems, and iwagumi aquascapes—the exhibition reimagines digital knowledge as tactile form.

The installation is not merely a representation but a transformation: digital structures of knowledge, such as hashtags, diagrams, and text, are rendered in physical space with the same interactivity and clarity found in online platforms. Through this, LiveDisplay inverts the typical flow of information, allowing the physical to take on the epistemological fluidity of the digital.

The installation brings to life blog content from agacsakal.com, offering an interplay of visibility and interactivity: a terrarium-making guide is transformed into a graphic display, while the tools of iwagumi creation are arranged physically on a shelf. In doing so, LiveDisplay decodes the aesthetic and communicative parallels between showcases and blogs, revealing their shared function as interfaces for experience and knowledge.

Kozikoğlu’s design fluidly moves from information design to information architecture and into built structure, using Terminal’s Acrobat system by ALU as both scaffolding and framing. These structural elements, crafted in steel and glass, function as tools of display, focusing the viewer’s attention and supporting the exhibited content.
