Wink is a prototype for an interactive picture book platform. + This platform aims to make reading into a mindfull and thought provoking process by using interactive and playful elements, + multiple stories within one narrative and sound elements. Especially today where consumerism and low attention span is a rising + issue especially amongst young readers, this was an important task to tackle. The thought of Wink emerged to find a more sustainable + and creative way of reading for elementary school children.

+

Working as a children’s literature editor for years, I came to a realisation that picture books were turning into another object + that kids read and consume on daily basis. At least this is what I observed in Turkey. Teachers and parents were finding it difficult + to find new books constantly or were tired of rereading the same book. As a young person in the publishing sector, I believe there + should be equal options for children as there is for adults; such as ebooks, audiobooks etc. But moreover a “book” that can be + redefined, reread or be interacted with. So I revisited an old story I wrote, translated to English and named it, “Bee Within”.

+

Bee Within, is a story about grief and it is based on my experiences throughout the years. I erased it, rewrote it, edited it, destroyed it multiple + times over the past years, simultaneously with new experiences of loss. In the end, I believe the story turned out to be an ode to + remembering or might I say an ode to not being able to forget or an ode to the fear of forgetting which I now think is a great + and sweet battle between death and life. I think it is an important subject to touch upon, especially for children dealing with + trauma in many parts of the world.

+

Over the past two years, experimenting with storytelling techniques, interactivity options and workshops with children and adults, around reading and doing various exercises on Bee Within, I improved the story to be a more playful and interactive one which can be re-read, + re-played and eventually re-formed non digitally to be reachable for all children.
