Analysis of Spatial Transformation in The Context of Urban Memory: The Case of Sivas City

Abstract

Individuals feel the "need to belong somewhere" from a psychological and sociological perspective. The city, which hosts our perceptual and actional experiences, makes us feel that we belong somewhere. In people’s mind, the discontinuity and rupture of the city they live in destroy the "sense of being belong to a place". In order for people to continue their lives in a healthy way, the city memory, and the social and individual memory elements must be sustainable. This study, which aims to ensure the sustainability of urban memory, includes the creation of a 'Digital Urban Memory Hub Model Proposal' for the collection and transfer to the future of individual and collective memory elements that have formed in cities over time, through materials such as experience, memories, verbal and visual media analyses. In this study, a methodology proposal consisting of three stages was presented: collection of urban memory elements, analysis of today's city and creation of a digital archive for transfer to the future. Thanks to the developed methodology, urban memory spaces were transferred to the future in a digital environment. By establishing a connection between the past and the present with the digital city memory archive method, it is possible to protect the city's identity and memory spaces and support the cultural heritage of the city.
