The »Real-Time City« research center is part of the Faculty of Cultural Sciences at the TH Köln. It is aligned with the faculty’s research strategy, which builds on the faculty’s previous research work and points the way to future research. »Real-Time City« sees itself as an institution that combines cultural and media studies with design and architecture in order to work out the specifics of urban research with regard to its media, artifacts and knowledge practices. Design is understood as a cultural technique of inter- and transdisciplinary knowledge that is reflected upon and opened up for interdisciplinary collaboration.
