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

In this advance article, Chris Earley defends the collaborative cognitive achievements that artworks make possible. #philsky doi.org/10.1093/aest...

Happy to say that, as of September, I will be joining the University of Edinburgh as a Leverhulme Early Career Fellow. I will be investigating what social epistemology can tell us about art and what art can reveal about social epistemology. @leverhulme.ac.uk @schoolofppls.bsky.social #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.

Kicking off here with a few recent pieces of writing. 🧐 First, an article forthcoming in the British Journal of Aesthetics @britjaesth.bsky.social in which I argue that learning from art often takes the form of collaborative inquiry between artist and audience: philpapers.org/rec/EARCAC-7 #philsky
