_Timebased Design Processes in Architecture

How can architecture intervene in challenging situations? How
can it influence social dynamics and give rise to new forms of
activity? What are the methods, tools, and media that it uses
and what roles do they play in generating new knowledge?

Taking these questions as its starting point, the volume explores
the potential of architectural design to disrupt and transform
existing systems and contexts by employing technical, aesthetic,
and symbolic practices and visualization techniques. The
development of new time-based media of investigation, imagination,
and cooperation renders design eminently suitable for initiating
actions of transgression, resistance, and collective participation.

Based on these considerations, the volume sheds light on design
viewed as a critical spatial practice, knowledge creation, and form
finding. The theoretical and practical contributions gathered here
open up a variety of content-led and methodological approaches
to the still-young field of media-cultural and architectural design
research.

With essays by Carolin Höfler, Matthias Karch, Kassandra Nakas,
and Philipp Reinfeld as well as case studies of designs, conceptual
sketches, performative realizations, and built structures by
students of the IMD _Institute of Media and Design.
