When today capturing your surroundings can (key word: can) be as easy and instant as pressing a button on your phone, you have to appreciate the slightly more labor-intensive process behind Teresa Lim’s Sew Wanderlust.

Lim describes the inspiration for her embroidery project to Culturepush:

Social media has been blocked (Twitter, Facebook and Youtube)

Government treating the coup as a minor disturbance/claiming it is over

Military have taken control of Turkish state news and confiscated phones from staff members

The country’s most senior general is apparently being held hostage 

Ataturk Airport has been closed  According to state media all airports are now closed

Turkish President has been taken to a “safe place”

Gunfire has been heard in Ankara

Reports of Turkish police and Turkish army clashing

Turkish media are claiming soldiers have entered the offices of the ruling party and told everyone to leave the building

Military are allegedly trying to enforce a curfew

Military have released an update claiming the country is now run by a “peace council” to ensure the safety of the population

Unconfirmed yet, but there are claims of heavy gunfire coming from the area of the presidential palace

Turkish President Erdogan has appeared via FaceTime claiming to be in control, that the coup will be dealt with by the morning and that he will punish the leaders of the coup. He also urged people to take to the streets in support of him.
