Philosopher – Leverhulme Early Career Fellow at the University of Edinburgh and co-editor of Debates in Aesthetics – Researching why artists are so weird, why we let them be so weird, and what we can learn from them
Excited to be in Cardiff this week to present at the Welsh Aesthetics Forum. I'll be talking about how we can aesthetically appreciate our own epistemic agency, how artworks can help us do this, and how this might (or might not!) boost our cognitive powers. @cardiffphilosophy.bsky.social #philsky

Heading to @ox.ac.uk for the British Society of Aesthetics annual conference. I’ll be talking about how aesthetics can help us grasp the meaning (or meaninglessness) of our place in the history. @britaesthetics.bsky.social #philsky #philosophyofhistory #philosophy

Had a wonderful time in Barcelona presenting this paper co-authored with Hans Maes. It's the first part of a larger project we're working on in which we're trying to work out what philosophers can do to help artists create art. #philsky

Great day of talks at the Crossroads between Arts and Politics conference at Università del Piedmonte Orientale. I presented some work on why the arts are great place to try out weird approaches to inquiry. It was weird and wild.
