This Friday (15:00-19:00) at the World Congress of Philosophy in Rome, a panel on Enactive Aesthetics with Shaun Gallagher, @JoergFingerhut, Harry Drummond, Guido Bittosi, and myself. Supported by the Società Italiana di Estetica and the Associazione Pragma.
My new paper, using the tools of enactivism, tells you not just why undertaking aesthetic activities with others is so unique, but how that unique-ness varies with different aesthetic activities and different others. Check it out, open access: https://t.co/OGDTBQcCm0
I shot down to my local @WaterstonesOrms today to pick up my brand new copy of Roger Hargreaves’ excellent Little Miss Contrary, and was delighted to learn it comes with a free copy of @_JackSymes equally thought provoking Philosophers on God! Can’t wait to get stuck into both.

On @BBCRadio3 tonight, reading my essay 'Paradox of Ecological Art' 💚Pondering if environmental imagination must always be about 'nature', and if we could instead make art about boilers, beef, cement & other things slowly roasting us.
