Non-corporeal things can be artifacts. Like the Alchemist's Curse. Think something like what happened with the golem amulet in Season 3, but without a physical link. The artifact affected people by altering a binary stream in the webcam, which in turn directly altered DNA. If the amulet wasn't the cause, how would you have reccomended snagging it? Hugo was able to, with enough time, write a counter-code, so it's possible.
