ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Black tie is a semi-formal Western dress code for evening events, originating in British and American conventions for attire in the 19th century. In British English, the dress code is often referred to synecdochically by its principal element for men, the dinner suit or dinner jacket. In American English the equivalent term tuxedo (or tux) is common. The dinner suit is a black, midnight blue or white two- or three-piece suit, distinguished by satin or grosgrain jacket lapels and similar stripes along the outseam of the trousers. It is worn with a white dress shirt with standing or turndown collar and link cuffs, a black bow tie, typically an evening waistcoat or a cummerbund, and black patent leather dress shoes or court pumps. Accessories may include a semi-formal homburg, bowler, or boater hat. For women, an evening gown or other fashionable evening attire may be worn. The first dinner jacket is traditionally traced to 1865 on the then Prince of Wales, later King Edward VII (1841–1910). The late 19th century saw gradual introduction of the lounge jacket without tails as a less formal and more comfortable leisure alternative to the frock coat. Similarly, the shorter dinner jacket evolved as a less formal alternative to the dress coat out of the informal smoking jacket, itself derived from out of the banyan.[citation needed] Thus in many non-English languages, a dinner jacket is still known as the false friend "smoking". In American English, its synonym "tuxedo" was derived from the village of Tuxedo Park in New York State, where it was introduced in 1886 following the example of Europeans. Following the counterculture of the 1960s, black tie has increasingly replaced white tie for more formal settings in the United States, along with cultures influenced by American culture.

Erkan has been always in movie sets since his childhood as the son of a Turkish Producer Nihat Cerit. When he was 10, he was trained about optical illusions effect done by mirrors. His life has changed once his father gave him a gift, it was a Commodore 64. One year after Commodore 64's world launch, a 12 year old boy, Erkan fell in love with computers. At home he developed simple computer games and computer programs by turning numeric formulas into visual images, in QBasic language. When he presented these to Teleteknik, (the representative of Commodore in Turkey), he became the youngest employee of Teleteknik at age 13. He wanted to learn more but there was no "master" or mentor about computers at that time so he had to work on his own. Erkan continued his education while working at Teleteknik , he was not spending too much time at school but was getting good grades. Doctors reported him as child with "High IQ." Unfortunately there was no special school for him and he was getting bored at school so he quit his education. He got graduated from High School at age 17 through a special exam. In 1986, he started working at Goldstar Turkey as freelance programmer. In 1988, he started working at Apple Computers Turkey and got trained on Desktop publishing, Computer Aided Design and Graphic Design. He developed several software programs during the years he worked at Apple TR. In 1991, he decided to focus on Industrial IT solutions including textile pattern design, computer aided manufacturing design, local & wide area network, NCR Corp., CNC programming and worked as sales representative for IBM. He developed neurosurgery & microsurgery video recording facility for Uludag University. In 1994, SGI, Silicon Graphics Inc. contacted Erkan and he became the Media Advisor for SGI and started preparing media coverage on Virtual Reality. When Telecine wanted to purchase SGI server, and they also asked Erkan to work with them. He got trained in 3 dimensional photo-realistic design and visualization by Telecine Corp & SGI. That's when he got interested in Stereoscopy. During these years he was also writing articles on technology for several major magazines and newspapers. In 1995, he attended a Naval Operations Practice directed by Turkish Army in a Frigate for 15 days as a technology reporter. That's when his journey with Stereoscopy began, after seeing through the stereoscopic viewfinder of a long-range heavy machine gun.
