My name is Yaren Kılıç. I graduated from the Department of Philosophy at Middle East Technical University in 2023. During my undergraduate studies, I was an active member of ODTÜ Oyuncuları, the university's theater group, which deepened my interest in the intersection of philosophy and art. My paper, "Art, Artificial Intelligence, and Meaning," was published in the third issue of Prokopton, Bilkent University's Undergraduate Journal of Philosophy.
Currently, I am pursuing a master's degree in philosophy at Boğaziçi University. My research interests include art ontology, aesthetics, and political philosophy.
