In preparation for an upcoming exhibition at the Architekturmuseum der TUM, this seminar offers an in-depth exploration of architectural investigation and design activism. Through lectures and project analyses, participants will gain insights into the methodologies of Forensic Architecture, SITU, and other influential offices. The focus will be on how these practices employ spatial analysis, technology, and research to uncover truths, advocate for justice, and redefine architecture's role in society. Participants will contribute to the exhibition by incorporating their gathered insights and produced work and collectively reflect on how to communicate this content to a lay audience.
