Offseeds
Offseeds is the music project of Berlin-based musician Bilgehan Ozis. Tales of Extinction is a homage album to the extinct species. Offseeds as a performance group would like to take nature and its previous inhabitants as inspiration, as sources of knowledge and communicate them. The musical style of Offseeds meanders between dark ambient, experimental, minimal music and drone.

Sounds Of Resistance
Sounds of Resistance is a collaboration work performed by Bilgehan Ozis, Ipek Ipekcioglu and Ceyhun Kaya.
The stage performance is a musical interpretation of 2013 Istanbul Gezi Park protests in conjunction with the fairy tale “Little Red Riding Hood” as a plot of revolt. Live music performance, storytelling, video animation and video mapping were employed for the making of the show. Recordings of the street protest recordings were then the backdrop to the event. The focus was on the social and artistic components that the uprisings produced in the form of peaceful street
meetings, street art, and social media messages.
