ABSTRACT

The purpose of this study is to measure and observe memes in Korean modern architectural discourse. Here, a meme is understood as a cultural gene or in other words, a popular architectural concept or practice that is passed from one generation to the next by imitation. After extracting memes from the text of the leading architectural magazine in Korea titled SPACE magazine, we used network analysis to investigate them. The findings of this study were as follows. First, by researching 601 issues of SPACE magazine published between 1967 and 2018, the total number of memes extracted was 708. These memes were divided into 291 types of memes, which were then classified into 24 memeplexes (groups of memes with similar contents). Second, because of analyzing the influence of these memeplexes over time, we found that the “Tradition” memeplex had great influence in the past, while philosophy-related memeplexes such as “Sense of place,” “Phenomenology,” “Philosophy of Becoming,” and “Post-structuralism” have been influential. However, the “Modernism” memeplex has been the most durable, having the greatest influence on Korean architects from past to present.

摘要

本研究的目的是衡量和观察韩国现代建筑话语中的模因。在这里，模因被理解为一种文化基因，或者换句话说，一种流行的建筑概念或实践，通过模仿代代相传。在从韩国领先的建筑杂志SPACE杂志的文本中提取模因后，我们使用网络分析对其进行调查。本研究的结果如下。一、通过研究SPACE的601期杂志从 1967 年到 2018 年出版，提取的模因总数为 708 个。这些模因分为 291 种模因，然后分为 24 个模因复合体（内容相似的模因组）。其次，由于分析了这些 memeplex 随时间推移的影响，我们发现“传统”memeplex 在过去影响很大，而与哲学相关的 memeplex，如“地方感”、“现象学”、“生成哲学、 ”和“后结构主义”产生了影响。然而，“现代主义”memeplex 是最持久的，从过去到现在对韩国建筑师的影响最大。
