Abstract

Computer technology has revealed serious transformations on communication-based relationships over the past years. The development of artificial intelligence enables the phenomena of human-made design worlds to be followed in many areas such as cinema, advertising, photography, fashion, architecture and textile. Graphic is a line/drawing activity that has existed in an effort to exhibit nature as an extension of human endeavor and to reproduce what belongs to nature and human as a part of nature. In this context, graphic and design elements ranging from simple lines to complex shapes are used in various branches of art and scientific pursuits. Especially with the development of computer and internet technologies, visual designs for the 'virtual' have come to the fore. These productions observed in every moment and area of life, it almost offers clues to a simulation world and a living space. Artificial life, which is about human beings, presents humans and exhibits utopian narratives, is a time-space design that points to the manifestation of reality in the imaginary, although it emerges from the imagination of human beings. This design is the practice that emerges with the combination of graphics and multimedia, and the developments related to this practice are discussed in the study, new media technologies and the use of these technologies, and a proposition for future life practices has been developed
