Architecture Virus

A work of architecture is not borne completely independent of other architecture. The fact that an architect�s work is influenced by previously seen architecture, (be it historical architecture, the architect�s previous works, or the architectural works of others in journals), cannot be denied.

If this is so, and built architecture is seen as the subject, one can say that the DNA of each work of architecture is infused from the architect�s eye to the brain, and there, is mixed with the DNA of other architecture to bear a progeny.

At that time, as far as architecture is concerned, the brain of the architect is the breeding place, where the selection for survival is at stake.

This is the breeding and proliferation mechanism of architecture, as seen from the concept of Meme.

For a short while, the powerful DNA leaves numerous progeny.

If generation, DNA, and proliferation were to exist, wouldn�t there be viruses as well?

As in the theory of virus evolution, the virus is not something which only causes a negative effect.

What is meme virus-affected architecture? Or, what is virus-like architecture?...
