The teaching program or the subject of the seminar that will be giving there contains the debate related to epistemological and the future of the western culture and philosophy.  

Discipline of İmajoloji is a new offer about relationship between knowledge and human via epistemology of image. This epistemic model obtains reinterpreted social and political life. Of course we find traces of İmajoloji, in Plato, Bacon, Adorno, Heidegger, Baudrillard, Foucault, Derrida and so on.      

According to me the human being is created within a World of images for in this period life that an individual confronts in real life. However, it is a questionable situation because of impossiblity of absolute realty for human. But we have been surrendered by reactions of image resources that include some realties. So that human have never believed in this realty exactly. He has created alternative realties, alternative images, symbols and tools. More importantly we could manipulate facts according to our position, ideology, politic approach, civilisation and so on. 

            We argue this conception framework around image epistemology and its reaction on social life.
