Behold! This could be the first color photograph of a döner kebap. It was taken by French orientalist Jules Gervais-Courtellemont in Constantinople in 1908, using the Lumière brothers' "Autochrome" process which was made commercially available in 1907.

As an addition to my Turkish bandit film documentary (reubensilverman.wordpress.com/2024/05/20/efe…), I'm going to post several translations of bandit ("efe") literature. The first is an excerpt from Ömer Seyfettin’s story “The Lone Efe.” Check it out here: reubensilverman.wordpress.com/2024/08/12/ome…

German broadsheet from Prague depicting a Turk’s head with snakes that appeared in an egg yolk as a maid prepared a meal in Autun in 1569. An ominous sign: the cat that ate a bit of egg white that fell on the ground died on the spot. GNM, HB810. objektkatalog.gnm.de/objekt/HB810

#AprilFoolsDay 🃏 You probably don't know this groovy late 60s tune by Lili Ivanova, the 🇧🇬Ajda Pekkan, backed by 🇹🇷 pop legend Durul Gence and his band, comparing with a lovely accent the hardships of love to an April fool's joke ('Nisan şakası') 💔🎶 youtu.be/O_7Bc3JIR44

This is the unbelievable tale of Dounia Younes, who quit music at an early age to live a quiet life, while unbeknownst to her, half a world away, an old recording of hers was being used by Brain Eno, David Byrne, and many others to change music forever. projectrevolver.org/features/artic…

Interesting sound document spotted on Ebay. Columbia 78rpm disk featuring an islamic call to prayer performed in Turkish as required by Atatürk in 1932 until 1950 when newly elected Democrat Party switched it back to Arabic. You can listen to it here: youtu.be/-Lt2uOOoOKc

It's 8.30am and here I am, reading about "The Tarzan of Manisa" originally a Turkmen from Iraq who settled in the hills of western Turkey after serving in the war of independence to plant trees and help the poor according to the local gov website manisa.gov.tr/manisa-tarzani…

The 1937 "Leon Trotsky goes to Mars with Mustafa Kemal Atatürk" fanfiction you didn't know existed.👇

Underrated (late 60's?) budget 🇬🇷 music LP worth buying for the cover alone. Highlights include two tracks with Epirus tunes and performances by Istanbul-born bouzouki player Yorgos Mitsakis. Not ashamed to say that I own two copies...

As a native 🇫🇷 speaker watching the spread of multiples 🔥 over 🇹🇷, it took me a while to realize that 'arazöz' (tr for 🚒) is derived from 'arroseuse', which has seemingly vanished from our own jargon due to recent technological developments in firefighting...🤷 #türkiyeyanıyor
