Forensic Architecture

Forensic Architecture is an organization which carries out international activities
at the request of NGOs and human rights groups. Using a geographical
and architectural approach, they investigate ongoing conflicts in urban
areas, migration issues, etc., in relation to data that has simultaneously been
accumulated. In these areas, where direct entry is difficult, they combine images
from sources including mass media, SNS and satellite photos with traditional
methods including sundials, and then collect, recreate and analyze on-site data.
The conflict and death which circulates on a massive scale each day in the form
of information fragments is thereby reconstructed as raw reality.
