Under the Influence symposium brings together scholars and practitioners of architecture in order to focus on one of the most anxious disciplinary topics: influence. The aim of the symposium is to expand our disciplinary tools for thinking appropriation beyond anxiety or ecstasy (that it might indeed induce) by placing issues of individual and collective authorship, of precedent, originality and reproduction, under a magnifying glass. The symposium invites each of the participants to illuminate a single term - a disciplinary synonym for appropriation - and through that term, the specific strategies, historical, and disciplinary circumstances in which it is enmeshed. Under the Influence participants will examine: Affinity, Allusion, Cliché, Collection, Doppelgänger, Replica, Revision, (Color)Sample, Side Effects, Signature, Thing Rights and Vapor.
