Or something kind of like that.
Here's my take
on fakery in aesthetics at philosopher Massimo Pigliucci's new
long-form science and philosophy site. I already have a follow-up on
this issue in the works, and hope to do some other occasional writing
there.
The follow-up will be about the work of developing
artists as public intellectuals. As such, it will focus on funding, via
the National Endowment of the Arts and other organizations, better K-12
arts programs, within the context of improved academics in general, and
more.
This is a slice of my philosophical, lay scientific, musical, religious skepticism, and poetic musings. (All poems are my own.) The science and philosophy side meet in my study of cognitive philosophy; Dan Dennett was the first serious influence on me, but I've moved beyond him. The poems are somewhat related, as many are on philosophical or psychological themes. That includes existentialism and questions of selfhood, death, and more. Nature and other poems will also show up here on occasion.
