+==How it started?==
+Over the semester, my work unfolded like the slow, deliberate growth of a tulip—each phase a new petal of discovery. I began with deep research into the historical mystique of tulips, from their fabled role in Tulip Mania to their intimate ties with Ottoman lore. With this narrative in mind, I sourced high-quality bulbs and nurtured them in a controlled space, documenting every stage with close-up photography, time-lapses, and detailed notes.

+== Workflow: From Personal Journey to Exhibition ==
+=== 1. Concept & Narrative Development ===
+* '''Inspiration''':
+At 13–14, a chance encounter in a Turkish café—drinking expensive coffee and meeting a wild-haired fortune teller—sparked a lifelong embrace of uncertainty.
+* '''Narrative Script''':
+Draft personal logs and diary entries chronicling your evolving relationship with uncertainty and identity, paralleling the lifecycle of tulips.
+=== 2. Documenting Tulip Growth & Decay ===
+* '''Visual Capture''':
+** Use high-resolution cameras to shoot macro footage and time-lapse videos of tulips growing from bulbs in plastic bags.
+** Record daily changes—from hopeful sprouting to gradual decay—as a metaphor for personal growth and the challenges of crossing borders.
+* '''Personal Logs''':
+** Maintain written and video diaries detailing emotions, observations, and environmental context (e.g., two weeks of gray clouds before the sun emerges).
+=== 3. AI-Enhanced Video Generation & Data Visualization ===
+* '''Post-Production Editing''':
+** Compile raw footage and personal logs into a cohesive narrative timeline using video editing software.
+* '''AI Generation''':
+** Utilize AI tools (e.g., RunwayML) to generate surreal video segments reflecting themes of transformation, decay, and the expat experience.
+** Integrate AI-generated visuals that abstractly represent your journey—symbolic imagery echoing tulip decay and renewal.
+* '''Data Visualization''':
+** Extract key data points from logs (dates, weather conditions, emotional states) and create visual charts/timelines using data visualization software.
+** Overlay these visuals on your video for an analytical, layered perspective on the narrative.
+=== 4. Exhibition Curation & Assembly ===
+* '''Content Integration''':
+** Design the exhibition to guide visitors through your documented journey—from that fateful café encounter to the transformation in Berlin, mirrored by the tulip’s lifecycle.
+** Display a combination of video projections, high-resolution prints, and interactive data visualizations.
+* '''Narrative Flow''':
+** Use text overlays, voiceovers, and personal diary excerpts to weave the story together, emphasizing themes of uncertainty, growth, and resilience.
+== Conclusion ==
+This workflow transforms your personal journey and botanical documentation into a powerful, immersive exhibition—melding detailed visual records, AI-generated imagery, and data-driven storytelling to explore the beauty and complexity of growth, decay, and transformation.
